I read earlier this
week about a Saudi religious policeman from the Commission for the Promotion
of Virtue and Prevention of Vice, questioned a young couple walking
together in an amusement park to confirm their identities and relationship to
one another, he got a painful surprise - when the woman suddenly attacked
him.
Apparently he was punched
repeatedly; he was eventually taken to hospital suffering from severe bruising.
If the woman is
charged with assaulting the officer, she could face a lengthy prison term, or a
lashing, or both.
'People are fed up
with these religious police, and now they have to pay the price for the
humiliation they put people through for years and years,' Saudi human rights activist was
quoted saying 'to see resistance from a woman means a lot... This is just
the beginning and there will be more.'

Dedicated to the Mysogynist at Work
I am not a feminist but this guy at work makes me so mad, in my head I've been constantly thinking: "if you call me 'Kambulo' one more time I will kill you!"
