From the ‘You Just Can’t Make This Stuff up File:’ Not content to have ordered women to wear full face and body covered burqas, the Taliban’s latest disdain towards all things Western include ordering a ban on men wearing neckties, which the Taliban claim ‘violates Sharia law.’

Days after taking control of the country, there were media reports that Taliban fighters were reportedly flogging Afghan civilians in the streets for wearing ‘westernized’ clothing such as jeans.
The Taliban’s dress rule, which covers all female students, teachers, and staff, states that they must wear an Islamic abaya robe and niqab that covers the hair, body, and most of the face. The garments must be black and women must also wear gloves to ensure their hands are covered.

This is what you can expect from a country where people marry their cousins. You’d find more intelligence & genetic diversity in the back hollers of Appalachia. Meemaw & paw can tell a tie is not a cross.
