As long as we follow the right path it's OK!

Mark said...

Yes! The straight path!

Look on the bright side, your mates will never rip it out of you for pulling a minger.
Only you and the duvet will ever know......
There again, if it catches on in Thailand, the 'Ladyboys' will be even harder to spot.

Sorry! Too cryptic for me, I'm afraid.

hmmm...just what is she doing with that cockin the first picture?

Mark, I have a friend who travelled through Pakistan and Afghanistan in the late seventies. The photo of the veiled woman reminds of the stories he's told me of the sad and pathetic sights he saw of women there. I doubt much has changed in the last 25 odd years. Many women, for numerous and varied reasons, are left to live on the streets and survive like animals. I struggle to understand how so many muslim men seem to have no compassion whatsoever. I mean, zero. It's like they've had an emotional bypass.

American Crusader:

I asked myself the same question! She looks as if she's whistling to it. Can't think why.

If you're talking of an emotional bypass, I'll send you something I received from Europe last weekend. The first page is in French, but the next pages are pictures only, which tell their own story.

I warn you, however, that it's CRUEL. It's in Iran. It shows what they do to an eight-year old boy who has stolen some bread. I could barely look at it. See what you think.

How insightful! Yes, I should have known. If I think back to my parents' generation, I seem to remember something like that, now you mention it.

Thanks for your insight.

Yes, I agree with you in many ways: Years ago, people had style. It's rare today to see someone with style these days. All they wear now is super-casual gear, tattoos, and piercings! Ugh!

Mark said...

Oh, and loads of junk jewellery!

If Islamification continues apace, can't you just imagine the covers of and the articles in Cosmopolitan? The covers of and the ads in Vanity Fair?

And think of the swimwear. The mind reels.

BTW, things are pretty amusing over at The Ultimate Insult. Sometimes one has to laugh!

If only you could see me now! I'm in stitches here! RAFL (Rolling about the floor laughing!)

Wow just look at the gapping eye slip on that, that woman showing so much flesh is just daring the mullahs to have her stoned to death.

Fido:

Welcome! I'm sorry it has taken me so long to respond to you, but I have been away for several days. Forgive me, please!

How long will it be before Western women will be treated in a similar way, I wonder?

Bld:

What a miserable bunch of poe-faced
eejits!


Indeed! There's not an ounce of fun in them!

I would love to do it, but I'm sure there are lots of folks well equipped to take it on already.

Go for it! Go for it! You've got a great sense of humour. You can do it. Go for it!
