Afghanistan's Taliban rulers on Tuesday banned female students from attending universities effective immediately in the latest edict cracking down on women's rights and freedoms.

Despite initially promising a more moderate rule respecting rights for women and minorities, the Taliban have widely implemented their strict interpretation of Islamic law, or Sharia.

Look at the types of ‘liberated’ women our colleges have produced. Women who want to be men and don’t want to have children and who hate their ancestors.... maybe the Taliban are onto something here.

Now no women can go to universities. Part of the “new” attitude they assured Biden officials was arriving with the departure of Americans from Afghanistan.

I knew this was coming when they banned the wildly popular Wet Burqa Contests.

So what? I am sick and tired of these endless articles of how oppressed Afghanis supposedly are. If they didn’t care enough to lift a finger in their own ‘defense’ after we gave them trillions and decades of our own blood and sweat why should we? Newsflash. People enjoy different cultures. Not every woman wants to be in the corporate rat race or cares that the local feminist studies department is closing down. Stop trying to force 21st century woke culture on every country.

Knowing the state of the American indoctrination system, I’d say the Taliban care more about women than Americans do.

So they lied.

I’m shocked.

You may have a point.

They’re willing to defend their culture, ****** up as it is, to the death. We, apparently, are not.

women are overrepresented in universities today. this is just placing a finger on the other side of the affirmative action scale.
