New Taliban laws that prohibit women from speaking or showing their faces outside their homes have been condemned by the UN and met with horror by human rights groups.

The Taliban published a host of new “vice and virtue” laws last week, approved by their supreme leader Hibatullah Akhundzada, which state that women must completely veil their bodies – including their faces – in thick clothing at all times in public to avoid leading men into temptation and vice.

Women’s voices are also deemed to be potential instruments of vice and so will not be allowed to be heard in public under the new restrictions. Women must also not be heard singing or reading aloud, even from inside their houses.

    Imagine being so insecure that you need someone to literally hide every aspect of their being so that you don’t get aroused and can’t control yourself. Fucking weak-willed cowards.

      This really sounds more like the men should be kept inside …

        If the sight or sound of a woman triggers their weak little boners, then yes.

          What about drones zooming around with sweet women sounds? Is there a gofundme for that somewhere?

          These countries must be stopped and everyone liberated. It’s worse than life imprisonment.

            I like that. Drones that both play porn audio and drop nudes like propaganda pamphlets. It would shut the country down.

      Nah, that’s all bullshit. It’s, as per usual about a small group of people at the top wanting to control everyone else. Those at the top won’t be limited by details like rules, they’ll rape and steal what they can. It’s the rest that’ll bmhave to suffer under them.

      I guess it’s just the result of undiagnosed and untreated psychopathy
