    If they keep this up the Taliban might end up banning women from Afghanistan, forcing them to leave.

      A self-correcting problem. Give or take an Afghan’s male average lifetime.

      Nah. They need their skivvies. There’s no way they’ll get other men to do those things for them, and they’ll be damned if they’ll do it themselves.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Thousands of people visit Band-e-Amir national park each year, taking in its stunning landscape of sapphire-blue lakes and towering cliffs in the country’s central Bamiyan province.

    The ban was announced after the acting minister of vice and virtue complained that women visiting the park had not been adhering to the proper way of wearing the hijab.

    Human Rights Watch (HRW) described the ban as the latest in a growing list of restrictions imposed on Afghan women.

    Since the Taliban returned to power in 2021, authorities have closed most girls’ secondary schools, barred women from university and stopped many female Afghan aid staff from working.

    “Can someone please explain why this restriction on women visiting Band-e-Amir is necessary to comply with sharia and Afghan culture?” Richard Bennett wrote on social media.

    The Taliban have long held thatthey respects women’s rights in accordance with the group’s interpretation of Islamic law and Afghan customs.


    The original article contains 447 words, the summary contains 151 words. Saved 66%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

      Probably because it’s sunny and hats serve a function. The styles might’ve changed but wide brimmed hats aren’t exactly native to America or even Europe for that matter.

    I remember I was on my way on the country road to San Fiero and I remember listening to this song on the radio:

    One step forward and two steps back, nobody gets too far like that.
