Afghanistan’s Taliban rulers have issued a ban on women’s voices and bare faces in public under new laws approved by the supreme leader in efforts to combat vice and promote virtue.
The laws were issued Wednesday after they were approved by supreme leader Hibatullah Akhundzada, a government spokesman said. The Taliban had set up a ministry for the “propagation of virtue and the prevention of vice” after seizing power in 2021.

Article 13 relates to women. It says it is mandatory for a woman to veil her body at all times in public and that a face covering is essential to avoid temptation and tempting others. Clothing should not be thin, tight or short.
Women are obliged to cover themselves in front of non-Muslim males and females to avoid being corrupted. A woman’s voice is deemed intimate and so should not be heard singing, reciting, or reading aloud in public. It is forbidden for women to look at men they are not related to by blood or marriage and vice versa.
If a woman existing in public is too ‘tempting’ for you, then either stay indoors or rip your ears and eyes out.
A religious coworker complained about women jogging, I reminded him what Jesus said to do when your eyes cause you to sin.
Well don’t leave us hangin’! Did he do it or is he a hypocrite?
How did he react to that?
Or the dangly bits between your legs.
They could investigate Nullo culture 😉
Of course they do. They are trash humans.
All of that war and they are right back to where they were before we invaded.
Your tax dollars at work.
They worked well, do you know how much oil we got, and how many defense contracts where signed? What did you think they where taking your money for? Social programs? That would be communism! 🙃
The movie Charlie Wilson’s War gives a nice prelude to the 2001 war. The good news is, the fraction of the cost of the war in the 80s that education of the people would have cost was saved…and spent in just days the next time around.
Don’t forget the copious amounts of opium that were grown, harvested and sold.
Oh no, the democracy bombs didn’t work. Maybe next time, eh?
What if we send them to someone else first, and let them drop The Democracy right on the civilian population? Damn, still not working. Must need smarter, more sophisticated bombs…
Course its right back - they won.
More like Trump handed them a win (and all of their peeps freed). To say they “won” is reductive af
Well the USA was never fighting for arabic womens rights…
The number of well-educated men with comfortable lives who are willing to sacrifice themselves are very small. I’m not talking about people like Osama bin Laden, who are happy to send other people to die, I’m talking about the people who are willing to do the actual fighting, killing, and being killed. Some of the best solutions to terrorism are education and financial security.
Right, afghans aren’t arabs
In what way do you say that?

Project 2025?
Project 1025.
same difference
yeah, project 2025 should be called project 1025 too :/
What the fuck is wrong with these people?
Religion
A tragedy for the afghan people. Even more so, since there’s a sizeable chunk of their own population supporting them.
Yeah but I bet a ton of that support is on an “or else” basis.
I wish I could agree with you, but we found out that isn’t true the hard way over the last 25 years…
And voices? Damn, that’s a whole other level. No casually looking at men is even more edgy yet.
those Afghani trump trucks are ridiculous.
Can we donate darth vader costume to Afghan women? :D
Too sexy. Look at all the shiny buttons.
Also, there were women in that movie, which is absolutely haram.
Maybe they should just get it over with and deport all women. Rumour has it they’ve found a substitute or two anyway.
Just gotta be careful not to send the metal bikini
Fucking pathetic and disgusting.
