The Taliban have banned windows in residential buildings to stop women from being seen while they are at home in Afghanistan.
Hibatullah Akhundzada, Taliban leader, ordered that buildings should not have windows looking into places where a woman could be sitting or standing.
The order applies to both new buildings as well as already existing ones, according to a four-clause decree posted on social media site X late on Saturday.

How emotionally, mentally, and intellectually primitive and weak are you to fear women so much?
 
That'll show them, ban them windows! (Seriously, that is ultra f'ed up.)
 
Er, a lot of Afghanistan does not have power yes? Don't you need light?
 
I read some of the writings of Osama Bin Laden and his viewpoint was that in the west men exploited women. In that they show them off as some sort of conquest to make other men jealous which they consider gernally bad for society.

Afghanistan does have power stations in the larger cities, but domestic electricity production is intermittent at best....most of the power is imported from Iran and other central Asian countries surrounding Afghanistan.

That Osama Bin Laden and groups like the Taliban are evil and treat women like property does not make it false that western men exploit women, too. In fact, the evil of the MAGA-evangelical alliance has already made great strides towards treating women like property.
 

In both cases it blames women by making excuses for men that cannot (and shouldnt have to) control their feelings.

What is 'seduction'? You're trying to make a man unable to control his feelings. But the thing is you demand the right to choose who falls under your spell and who doesn't. But that's not how nature works.

What you wrote is completely wrong. Seduction is not physical compliance...a man can walk away at any time...cant he? Yes or no? And deceit, lying, is a card played by both sides all the time.

What are you trying to accomplish when you seduce someone? Think hard before you answer. You're trying to control his behavior, such that he cannot control his own behavior.

I expect such behavior from dogs, goats, and common primitive livestock.
A man that cannot control his baser instincts is beneath contempt and cannot really be considered a man; I see them as little more than primitive simians.... screaming monkeys that blame their uncontrolled lust on women rather than their own weakness.
A male that needs to hide women to control their own lust belongs in a cage in a zoo...and hiding behind so called "holy texts" calls into question the god you follow.

So you think men are so weak that they can be easily controlled by women? Is that why conservatives are

Some people just can't talk intelligently about this subject.

I deleted the post because I hit the reply button before I finished it. But you're correct, your posts aren't showing intelligent thought.

There is no “intellectually” talking about this subject.

If men need women to LITERALLY live in windowless boxes because the MEN are otherwise unable to control their primitive animal instincts, then those men belong locked up somewhere because they’re no better than a savage animal.

Women shouldn’t have to hide themselves because men are unable to be civilized.

There is literally nothing intellectual that could be said to dispute that.

Clearly they have their priorities straight.

Sunni+Shia=violence.
Catholics + protestants = violence.

Even the Hatfields and McCoys said "let that shit go"

What part of "they can walk away at any time" wasnt clear? "Think hard before you answer." You also didnt address the 2nd part which did relate to that. If he allows himself to be controlled by emotions or his dick...who's fault is that? Can men control themselves or not?

I dont notice you presenting any counterarguments. Asking more questions instead isnt that.

I should rephrase this: In both cases it blames women by making excuses for men that cannot (and arent expected to) control their feelings.
 
Your talking nonsense. Through seduction you're trying to gain control of someone else's behavior and then you say he's controlled by his own dick. Are your actions worthless? Then why do you do it? You can't have it both ways. You're adding to and encouraging the desired outcome and you're trying to doge all responsibility. Well that's nothing new. It's not like we haven't seen that before.
