AUSTIN (The Borowitz Report)—A new bill moving swiftly through the Republican-controlled Texas legislature would institute a strict statewide dress code for women.​
Governor Greg Abbott, a vehement supporter of the bill, said that the dress code would benefit women because “it will give them one less thing to think about when they get up in the morning.”​
“I believe in the sanctity of human life, and the best way to protect that life, in the case of a woman, is to free her from the stress of having to choose what to wear,” Abbott said.​
Abbott summarized the new dress code, which bars women from wearing skirts above the knee, sleeveless blouses, and most varieties of pants.​
“Slacks are fine as long as they have cuffs,” he said. “However, if a woman is caught wearing jeans or dungarees, she will be sent home.”​
Abbott dismissed comparisons between the state’s proposed dress code and that imposed by the Taliban, which has required women to wear burqas. “We are strongly opposed to masks of any kind,” he said.​

Texas would be perfect for the Stepford wives.
 
this piece is funny, but it is also extremely sad that it contains a grain of truth. This is the level that guys like abbott actually live at. Frightening. Except for the suits, guys like him behave the same way as guys living in remote mountains somewhere in the Middle East.
 
The whine-fest is out of bounds.

The real display of hysteria is on Twitter with tens of thousands joining in.
