Black is beautiful!

I don’t use a lot of news from Africa, not because of any particular bias against that Continent, and certainly not – given this post is concerned about women – because of any indifference to black women. You can see from previous posts that I’m not averse to covering attractive black ladies, even those like Beyonce and Naomi who display not only their attractive bodies but also imbecilic attitudes.

oooooooooooooo
So today I give attention to the disgraceful thugs in Kenya who attacked and stripped a girl simply because she was wearing a mini-skirt.
We have Dark Agers here in Jakarta, notably the ex-Minister of Religion, Suryadharma Ali, who thinks hiding female knees is a ‘universal criterion’ for public morality – how dim-witted can one get? Ali justified his nonsense by invoking the ‘aurat‘ rules, forbidden areas prescribed by sectarian dogma on knees, thighs, mid-riffs etc – even hair! – which apparently displease God (so how come He created them?)
Bizarrely the aurat are out of order only when displayed delightfully by women, not by us boring men.
However, in Kenya, and, so I have newly discovered, in Namibia and Swaziland, and maybe other countries too, this benighted mentality is not based on Islamist bigotry but more basic (and arguably more candid) sexism.
Hence the outrageous incident reported below.
An act of ‘slut-shaming’ in Nairobi has prompted women to protest in defence of their right to wear what they choose Kenyans protest after woman is beaten and stripped in public …http://www.theguardian.com Nov 17
=======================·
- Hundreds of women have turned out on the streets of the Kenyan capital today to defend their right to wear what they choose after a woman was stripped and beaten for wearing a miniskirt.
- Apparently, a mob of ‘men’ surrounded the woman, tore off her clothes and forced her to the ground.
- ‘Men?’ More like despicable pigs, those contemptible creatures! They claimed she was “indecently dressed”, and accused her of “tempting” them.
- Indecently dressed?
- These cowardly creeps never seen a burka? Pathetic bag-head bints who trail behind their primitive husbands, dressed like potato sacks, peering out through a slit in their horrible hoods.
- They’re disguising their humanity. THAT’s indecent!
- I’m sure Kenya has some. Thanks be there ain’t many here in Indonesia.

- Now look at the lovely lasses in the pic below – attractive bright blossoms, proud to look like women.

- Anyone who picks on them for being normal should be tarred and feathered. I was pleased a lot of Kenyans, both men and women, came out on the streets to demand proper punishment for the scumbags, who so far have not been apprehended.
- “This is our chance to stand together as women and deliver a message to our country that sexual violence will not be tolerated.”
- Traditional values include a measure of chivalry. Good to know these women had some honourable men to protest with them!
