So let's get this straight.“The white blouse is too transparent for girls and it becomes a source of attraction,” National Islamic Students Association of Malaysia vice-president Munirah Bahari said in a statement.
“It becomes a distraction to men, who are drawn to it, whether or not they like looking at it*,” she said, calling for a review of uniform policy so that it did not violate Islamic ideals.
Munirah said that “covering up” according to Islamic precepts was important to fend off social ills, including “rape, sexual harassment and even premarital sex.”
“This leads to babies born out of wedlock and, to an extent, even prostitution,” she said.However, the girls themselves also came in for criticism, with the association saying that some used the white blouse to lure men.
“This is the source of the problem,where we can see that schoolgirls themselves are capable of using this to attract men to them,” Munirah said.
*(emphasis added by me)
Uniforms made of a thin material (why, how dare they in a tropical country?!) will attract attention, even from completely innocent men, therefore causing them to flock to these obviously promiscuous school girls and to rape, harass and seduce them into pre-marital sex.
Doh!
Why didn't i make the connection before?
Aish. Those prostitutes wouldn't be where they are now if they had only worn a thicker school uniform. (-_-")
I can see feminists all over the world jumping in their skins.
In my oh-so-modern, oh-so-civil country of Malaysia, I simply CANNOT believe that this kind of language is still being used.
And to make things worse, it was uttered by a WOMAN. How can you possibly lay all the blame on women tempting the men into sin? I honestly believed that we'd abandoned this stance ages ago.
Welcome to regression of the times.
