No, not Madonna in another Bustier
Just a girl wearing the pants in the family in Sudan. Against Sharia Law apparently. So she was busted by the fashion police for the brazen immorality and subject to 40 lashes with something sharper than a wet noodle. Plus she showed too much....head hair! OMG! Scarves must be worn close to the ears at all times with no free flowing locks tempting the men-because it's women's fault, not men's that they can't keep their libidos zipped.

Lest you start to feel superior, like- we would NEVER do that here thank God- I remind you that the forty lashes here come in subtler ways but exist in more insipid and venal forms when they are deemed too tempting. You don't even have to dress immodestly to apparently arouse the suspicions and other matters. The email attack, the frivolous slander, the blacklisting and blackballing and branding of people who don't tote the precise theological party line at the moment into oblivion. Its a modern stoning of sorts.
So don't feel superior to the religious zealots of Sudan- you do likewise here, some of you Right/WRONG wing-nuts. You know who you are.
