Sudan ‘on path to democracy’ as ex-ruling party is dissolved

Under Bashir, the laws were deployed to impose conservative Islamic social codes, restricting women’s freedom of dress, movement, association, work and study.

This could include preventing women from wearing trousers or leaving their hair uncovered in public, or mixing with men other than their husbands or an immediate relative.

Those found to have contravened the law could be punished with flogging. The prime minister, Abdalla Hamdok, called the rules “an instrument of exploitation, humiliation, violation, aggression on the rights of citizens”.

Hadia Hasaballah, a rights activist, said the repeal was a culmination of the courageous struggles of women for 30 years, and showed the failure of Islamist ideology. “Women martyrs deserve it,” she told Reuters.

Excellent. I hope that reform continues in that country.

Women martyrs deserve it,

....nothing quite like a well dressed martyr.....~S~

Too bad so called "women's rights" organizations like N.O.W. don't do shit to help Muslim women.

This kind of slutty behavior by Sudanese women won't be tolerated for very long in Sudan. ...

But there aren’t any laws against the Islamic men having sex with goats or little boys.

It’s hilarious Tammy thinks the Sudan isn’t going to be ruled by radical Islamists who will continue to treat women like cattle.

The irony is that based on what he said in other threads, this would be "colonialism", or Europeans forcing their values such as "democracy" on other cultures which they don't understand.

(As far as Sunni Man goes, I wouldn't argue that a woman wearing pants or showing her hair makes her a porn star, no... nor would I argue that a rapist isn't responsible for his behavior if he can't control himself around women wearing pants... or leaving her hair uncovered... if that's your thing). Even in the Biblical Old Testament, raping a woman may have resulted in a blood feud such as a brother, father, or other male relative seeking revenge, so anyone attempting to justify rape has no excuse.
