The Lunch Legend
GAF's Nicest Lunch Thief and Nosiest Dildo Archeologist
Several years ago, a Muslim cleric in Australia publicly commented that western women displayed themselves like plates of meat.
He was, of course, referring to the modesty of traditional Islamic female garb, opposed to that of western women.
His comments caused national outrage, as he probably knew they would, but let's have a look at female fashion in the western world:
a. Dresses and skirts are so high that the genital area is only just covered;
b. In the case of jeans, they are worn so low that the pubic region is barely covered, and often so tight that the genitals are clearly outlined;
c. Tops are very low, barely covering the female breasts and are so tight as to leave nothing to the imagination;
d. Where dresses and skirts are patterned, the pattern often highlights the groin area; and
e. So called beach wear is so minute as to almost not cover the essentials.
Now, western men derive a great deal of entertainment from the above, but was the cleric wrong in his comments?
I don't think so, but do I want it to change? I don't know. I don't think so.
