Summary
The Taliban have banned windows in homes that allow views of areas where Afghan women might be seen, citing concerns over “obscene acts.”
This new decree mandates blocking or obstructing such windows in existing and new buildings, continuing the group’s systemic repression of women since regaining control of Afghanistan in August 2021.
The Taliban’s policies have included bans on women’s education, public appearances, and voices.
Critics, including the U.N., warn these actions dangerously erode human rights, while activists call out global inaction over the ongoing oppression.
You are correct, but I will never understand how they can see their own mother like this. Who thinks of their mom as an appliance?
Those men will never be loved. Just a bunch of deeply damaged psychopaths.
Well, in your last bit I think you got how. People with little to none emotional bonding, affection and contact, tend to develop psychopathic or at least sociopathic disorders.
My country has never been on that level of misogyny and male dominance, but my dad generation and my grandpa generation were respectively worse than today in terms of women being the house servant, and motherly love and affection was looked down because of the idea it would soften the boys and make them gay or effeminate, too soft to be real men in the future. From young age they learned about your mother and sisters being the ones that occupy themselves with house chores and you are not expected to even learn how to do anything. Males are the ones that bring money, thus deserve to be served.
I see how, in a more extreme setting, your mother is not really more than a human incubator and servant. You had no human contact with her or developed any kind of bond.
I have read about multiple discussions regarding generations after WW2 (Germany) getting too “Soft” because all the men were dead and the sons only raised by mothers. Those discussions were of course… held by the surviving men.
There is a long tradition of how eastern society functions and how women see themselfes in it, BUUUUUUT
Talibs overtook a country modeled after european states with two decades of gender equality and stuff, and them undoing it is not a return to tradition but self-inflicted barbarism to please 50% sausage havers.
I remember a similar thread about this: The European model stuff only happend in a very limited area (cities) while most of the rural country was, is, are, have been the clans now known as “Taliban”… which got literally weaponized by the US during the cold war.
I don’t remember the details but that’s what I think to know about that subject. (I never watched Rambo 2 /s)
