It's Newsweek, but this does sound like a thing they'd do.
Hey Taliban, here’s an idea: ban eyes for men, problem solved.
Similarly:
They can't be seen, can't speak, women's voices cannot be heard (even by other women), and now they can't have windows.
At this point, if they have such a problem, leave the men inside in a windowless box and let women do the work. It's men getting a half chub because they heard of someone thinking of a woman. Their obsession with women is so fucking weird. It's like they're the boogy man or some shit.
All these bans make it easier for abuse and violence against women and girls to proliferate
Yeah it's a weird fear fr. I wish I understood it but not sure if understanding it any better would make any difference. And that's even more labour on women yet again to figure out why are these men so scurred of women's agency? The imbalance is unconscionable.
Damn for a country that hates gay people, they REALLY hate looking at women.
No, it's more like each extremist Muslim doesn't want any other man looking at any of his women, because he knows what he'd be unable to stop himself from doing if he saw someone else's woman and assumes every other man is like that.
And that line of thinking breeds generations of men who rather than might think that way, actually do think that way, making the rule even more necessary.
It's also a lot easier for a man to punish or beat a woman than it is another man, and it's that line of thinking which turns women into property rather than people. And property can be treated however you like.
just like Lemmy, the Taliban doesn't like Windows
at your rate we're gonna have a free tech stack before we have equality. The struggle against patriarchy is not a joke

Soooooo, instead of educating young boys and men about respect and decency, they instead force women to cover themselves completely, and now remove windows from buildings, because young boys and men can’t be trusted to be basic human beings?
Yeah, you know you’re doing it right when you have to force other people to bend to your degeneracy.
Aside from the obvious egregious human rights violations here, there's going to be a lot of health repercussions for this.
Not getting enough, or any sunlight can cause vitamin d deficiency which can cause a whole host of problems. Including if a woman breastfeeds without getting enough vitamin d her baby will also be deficient. Get ready for a bunch of children who are going to be at a high risk for developing rickets.
I guess that's the price they're willing to pay to oppress women?
Taliban are more afraid of women than /r/incel
Those guys sure love banning things. They're gonna lose track of all the things they've banned, unless they hire someone to tally all their bans.
Unless of course there's a ban on that too
The point is to ban everything and lose track so that when they don't like you, they can always find something you did that was banned.
I'm curious, are these women actually flirting with these perverted creeps from the window... or are they flashing signs to each other because it's the only way they can talk?
Why do fundies always spend their time on pointless bullshit instead of actually governing
The only solution would be the women rising up and stealing their husbands and brothers guns to foment a violent revolution. Sure some will probably be killed in the uprising but I'm sure it will end quickly because it would be very inconceivably stupid of the men to kill such a large number of women, then whom would they procreate with?
I wonder what the region would look like without centuries of western capitalist oppression by europe and most recently the US.
The men will just go back to the traditional method of asexual budding.
Ban eyeballs.
Today, Pakistan, tomorrow, USA. You might be sceptical today, but if you think it really couldn't happen in America, you haven't been paying nearly enough attention.
A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
