Chastity belts and botched jokes
Just Kidding! Abu Hassan steals page from John Kerry's botched joke playbook...This just in from the New Straits Times:
KUALA LUMPUR: A day after creating an uproar among women across the country, a well-respected Islamic religious figure said that his comments on chastity belts for women was just a joke."Joke aje. It was not seriously meant," said Datuk Abu Hassan Din Al-Hafiz yesterday.
Newspapers had carried reports yesterday that Abu Hassan, a well known ulama, had said women should wear chastity belts to thwart rape and incest and "to protect themselves from sex maniacs".At a Maal Hijrah forum in Kampung Pelandan, Hulu Terengganu, Abu Hassan had told the audience that "the best way for women to avert sex perpetrators is to wear protection".
He also said that while his intention was not to offend women, by wearing chastity belts, husbands could also feel more secure, adding "if you know what I mean".
However, he changed his tune yesterday and said his comments at the forum were not meant to be a suggestion."It’s not practical to wear a chastity belt in this day and age. It can’t be done."
Because, by Allah, if it could be done all you bitches and hos would be wearing one!
