The wearing of trousers, jeans, or any tight clothing becomes illegal for women in West Aceh.
West Aceh (Aceh Barat) regency in the province of Aceh in trailblazing fashion has become the first administrative area to ban Muslim women from wearing any type of tight clothing, specifically jeans/pants/trousers.
Criminal
While in other parts of Aceh, where Islamic sharia law is fitfully and gradually being introduced, women are only required to at least cover their head hair and not to flaunt their womanly shapes, West Aceh has seized the day in specifically banning jeans.
Caught
Roadblocks and patrols will be carried out, with the local government preparing 20,000 long flowing skirts to be distributed to women caught in violation of the law. Offenders will be required to change into the skirts on the spot, with their jeans being confiscated.
Offenders will also have their names taken down, and on their third offence will be taken into detention.
Under the new law, coming into force on 26th May 2010, shops and traders will also be forbidden from selling women’s jeans and trousers.
Regent Ramli Mansyur admits the regulation is controversial, but that it is a necessary part of the application of Islamic law.
As a leader I have to implement this law because in the hereafter I will be held responsible for my actions on Earth, and I will be held responsible by society.
He says, in a democratic spirit, that all elements of society support the new law, in majority terms. okezone
Just when I thought things couldn’t get worse … David Hasselporn.
Anyway, the discussion about pedophilia and homosexuality is actually getting interesting. I try to simplify this by dividing people with different sexual orientations into four groups (not entirely mutually exclusive):
(1) Normal Heterosexual
(2) Pedophile Heterosexual
(3) Normal Homosexual (I am not sure about the term “normal” but, yeah…)
(4) Pedophile Homosexual
We can start to worry about homosexuality if there is statistics that prove:
– The ratio of (4) to (3) is higher than the ratio of (2) to (1)
– The percentage of child molestations by (4) is higher than child molestations by (2)
– The growth of (3) + (4) is higher than the growth of (1) + (2). Although in certain cases it can be a good sign to inhibit overpopulation.
and another thing, one of the best places to go and dance in my city rotterdam when i still lived there was a place called gay palace, used to go there often with the bar girls after work in the cafe. the girls loved to go there ’cause there they could party undisturbed unlike most other places where dickheads would come up to them all the time, not even introducing themselves but immediately sticking their tongues into mouths or groping…
Sorry sorry sorry madrotter, I totally didn’t mean it like that for you – I just wanted to share my favourite angry vegan Canadians with ya, that’s all (for Ross, though, I did mean it in the other way)…
The problem with Oigal is that on many subjects he can discuss and argue in a fairly normal and constructive way.
But no sooner had he read a fairly short and casual comment of mine, about Muslims who link incest and homosexuality) than he goes completely nuts.
Neither is a subject I spend a lot of time thinking about, and my comment was moderately phrased, so why do homos get him so uptight? (and why does incest not?)
I’m quite prepared to believe that he himself is normal in his tastes, and I frankly don’t care. Yet he at once suggested that, because I take a different view, I somehow need emotional counsellling, Childish, surely.
I know people who hold similar views to those he expressed – albeit they are calm in their assertions, as, for example was Odinius, and indeed a statesman whom I greatly admired, the late Enoch Powell, voted for the decriminalisation of homosexuality in the UK. He was right on most things, but not everything, but I could disagree and still treat him with respect.
Libertarianism is all very well, but I am not a libertarian, rather a conservative.
Oigal’s approach, on the other hand, is not in the least respectful of disagreement, but rather is to get wilder and wilder and more and more offensive, viz. his anti-British cuisine, (which by the way I enjoy) his anti-Scots accent (and mine is hardly pure Scots), pro-commie and pro-immigration diatribes – he introduces totally irrelevant issues. His own views on communism and immigration may be wise or foolish, but they are no more germane to the thread we are on than are mine. Similarly, he appears to be obsessively hostile to monarchy – up to him, but what has that to do with a debate on queers.
He yaps like a naughty puppy when I present him with several pages of material that he doesn’t like. At the same time, when asked repeatedly to say whether his evidently libertarian philosophy includes the right to incest, he baulks and dodges and twists and turns, anything rather than answer a simple quesion.
It is also a highly apposite question, for the reason I mentioned, that in Canada, once the dam was broken and traditional marriage replaced, the entire moral relativist crew began to press for polygamy, and in at least one country -I think it’s Holland – multiple marriage has been approved. (tho I’m open to correction if I’m wrong – I’ve yet to hear Oigal say that! He is not at his best in ‘attack-dog’ mode, and should see that it is unconvincing)
It is also a fact that many of the pro-queer campaigning groups have shown signs of advocating child-sex. To me that is disgusting. I know disgust is politically incorrect but there are a lot of us who can still see nothing wrong in expressing it when confronted with certain types of evil.
As Deta says above, we need to know if there is a greater risk of pedophilia when queers are involved with children. The figures in the info I posted suggest there is, and they have not been refuted. It is irresponsible to ignore them and downright silly for people like timdog to engage in sixth-form debating society sophistries which are only designed to insult opponents rather than advance discussion.
It is just stupid, as well as rude, to say that because I like women over 28, as I said, I thus have something in common with a monster who likes under-age girls. I clearly don’t.
apology would not go amiss, timdog, and a straight answer from Oigal on incest.
If you two guys can clean up your act, I am happy to continue the argument, but if you only want to be personally obnoxious, what’s the point?
.
Ross, I’ll apologise if you offer a similar apology to the entire body of common-or-garden homosexuals who have no more interest in small boys than you or I have in small girls.
A key crutch of your gay-bashing argument appeared to rest on the idea that men who abuse little boys are automatically to be regarded as belonging to the same “sexual preference” group as men whose taste is for consenting adult men…
If you really do think that, then you have no choice whatsoever but to do the same thing on the other side of the mirror and concede that men who have a thing for little girls are part of the same “sexual preference” group as men who like consenting adult women.
Now I don’t agree with that, and I don’t for a minute think you do either, but you can’t – ahem – have it both ways, Ross.
You said:
It is just stupid, as well as rude, to say that because I like women over 28, as I said, I thus have something in common with a monster who likes under-age girls. I clearly don’t.
Now, disregarding for a moment your views on homosexuality in general, consider a gentleman of the homosexual persuasion who happens to like men over 28, and then think about what you’ve been saying…
Talk about ducking and diving – you’ve been ducking and diving this point, which is all I’ve been hammering you with since we started.
Well, I’ll say this for you timdog, you have more staying power than Oigal, who could as easily have typed yes or no to the simple question he has been dodging for days. Instead he types ‘yawn’ and hides his views on the issue. Makes you think.
I am not dodging any issue. I am inclined to yawn myself, because it has only been dragging along due to Oigal’s shyness on his views on incest.
Nor do I issue open-ended apologies to an amorphous group of people. What I said was that a higher proportion of pedophiles appear to be male queers. This means that some, but not all, queers are a danger. If the percentage is disproportionate, then it is a worry.
To whom then should I proffer this putative apology?
.
If I insulted you by my humorous jibe about badgers and komodos, I happily apologise, but I think you knew that was not meant to be serious.
It remains, however, that you seriously asked me if my normal interest in grown-up ladies meant that I should be bracketed with male child-molestors who prey on little girls.
You can cloak that with specious arguments but it is pretty damned offensive by any standards.
Patung runs a pretty free-wheeling site here but we ought not to use that license to be abusive to each other -though I know it happens often enough.
Ross, you still continue to say that “a higher proportion of pedophiles appear to be male queers”. Forgetting for a moment the fact that Odinius has already posted material to challenge that assertion, I’ll point out that this, as far as I can make out, rests on the assumption that proportional to the ratio of homosexuals to heterosexuals in society, more boys suffer sexual abuse than girls.
This idea, as I said before, in itself relies entirely on the acceptance of the idea that there is a link between adult homosexuality and pedophilia targetting boys in the first place. To repeat again – this then, is “evidence” to “prove” an assertion that relies an initial acceptance of said assertion to have any meaning at all. And given that the people you are trying to convince don’t accept that assertion, then your evidence is worse than useless. Quite simple.
And one final time, disregarding the idea of everyone who engages in anything other than vanilla sex with an over-28-year-old non-communist of the opposite sex as being some kind of devient, surely you must be able to concede that saying “homosexual” (in the general sense) in the same breath as “boy-targetting pedophile” is every bit as offensive as saying “over-28-admiring heterosexual” in the same breath as “man who fiddles with little girls”…
As for badgers… PHWOAAAAAR!
Who said anything about non-communist? Conversion is always a useful side-effect of cohabitation – our Muslim brethren have been utilising that method of proselytisation via Falatehan for many years.
Nice badger!

Glad someone noticed!
I think, at this point, it’s clear to everyone but Ross that homosexuals are no more likely to be pedophiles that heterosexuals.
no problemo tim dog!!! listening to rollins low self opinion still think thats his best song;)
Going off in all the wrong directions so have been roused out of my usual slothful moderating style to take bold action with the delete button.
Just when I thought things couldn’t get worse … David Hasselporn.
Deta, I’m sensing something here….I’m willing to share with you my entire private collection of Hasselporn, built up over decades of love and devotion for the Hoff. If you’re shy about it PM me.
/braces self for biting sarcastic reply/
Never been a fans of Hasselhoff, but I have a question that might be relevant here… Is he gay?
I don’t think so, he definitely has a daughter, I remember seeing her in this video, one of the Hoff’s lowest moments…
never really watched bay watch, nightrider either but i like the hoff, he’s slowly getting himself into the same category as tom jones and william shattner but not there yet…
Just sneakin’ in to say hi.
Apart from the Oigal/Ross beef, any news here?
hi lairedion, well, i’m getting a crew together to put out my own sextape…
that’s cool. perhaps achmad s., purba n. and aluang anak b. could feature in that movie to show them bules how real javanese do it….
not sure how javanese purba really is but hey, not a bad idear! i got the contacts, we can sell ’em at kota kembang voor 15.000 each!
that’s great. we sell them as bule javanese to the local sundanese. kacida teuing!
and since the idiots have forbidden pro-wrestling here i was thinking to get into that too, the first video i wanna have a best out of 3 matches event between oigal and ross, first match will be a barbed wire coalminers glove match, second match will be falls count anywhere hardcore death match and the third match (if they make it that far) will be a cell in the cell match… patung will be the special referee and odinius will be the timekeeper and i will do the color commentary together with tim dog and odinius… the title of the event will be I.M.B!!! (meaning Indonesia Matters Bitch!!!) the soundtrack will be provided by my favorite san francisco bay area rap crew at the moment Bitch I Go…
ow shit how’s odinius gonna be the timekeeper and do commentary at the same time? guess i’ll invite Habib Rizieq Shihab to do the commentary then…
I’m good to go..One assumes the results will be posted in the “Socialist Worker”?
If the results include identifiable photos of both contestants, then it’s worth it so I can subsequently reprint one of the SW’s pics as warning notices along Jaksa.
Beware of Oigal!
Hey L
that’s cool. perhaps achmad s., purba n. and aluang anak b. could feature in that movie to show them bules how real javanese do it….
Shows how long it’s been for you. Achmad is now Dikkiman, Aluang fled after you and others outed him as not really Indonesian (though perhaps he now posts under a new name) and Purba, I believe, was banned.
Hope all’s well!
Since when has it been a fleeable offence to be exposed as not really Indonesian? There are more than a few of those still prowling.
@ timdog
To lay out again what I layed out in the post above – to make your connection between pedophilia and homosexuality in general, you apparantly believe that a man whose preference is for consenting, sexually mature members of his own gender, belongs to the same sexual cohort as a man whose preference is for small boys.
By that logic, you have no choice but to concede that you belong to exactly the same sexual cohort as a man who enjoys molesting eight-year-old schoolgirls. It’s quite simple.
Sorry, but you use a simple top-down approach to prove your point. This isn’t very scientific. A bottom-up approach, starting from the investigation of statistical coincidences like the studies Ross mentioned above, is – although not absolutely waterproof – a far more reliable method to come to a valid conclusion.
However I do follow your argument that ‘gay propaganda’ isn’t quite likely to turn vast swathes of youths from the straight path into the dark alleys haunted by leather-boys and PhD’s (Penis hating Dykes). I myself can’t imagine someone – whoever he/she might be and whatever temptations might be invoked – ever to be able to change my sexual preference. On the contrary it might be a good thing to draw the youth’s attention to a phenomenon from all times that isn’t even human-specific and, instead of culpabilising and ostracising those who belong to this group, teach the youth to accept these people as members of society but with a different natural disposition. What the youth should be taught is that any form of sexual harrassment or coercion, be it of a heterosexual, homosexual or pedophilic nature, is to be haram and strictly prohibited. But if there are compelling indications that members of certain groups – whatever these are – prove to be more susceptible to such abusive behaviour, they should be closely monitored and eventually discouraged by any means to come into contact with possible victims.
In short, it is useless to try to eradicate homosexuality, be it by law, social coercion or psychological treatment. Maybe one day DBS (deep brain surgery) could provide a solution, but this is a very slippery slope…
