Kuwait bars men from selling lingerie |
2007-01-29 |
The Gulf state of Kuwait issued a decision Sunday banning men from working in shops selling “private” women’s garments like lingerie. The decision, issued by the ministry of social affairs and labour, gave businesses until April 7 to implement the ban or face a fine of up to $700 for each violating worker. It said that special inspectors from the ministry would enforce the ban. The ministry also ordered its labour departments to stop recruiting male migrant labourers for employment in women’s lingerie shops. |

#9 Deacon, that's one you'll have to ask the resident imam on. I don't know who's on duty tonight, but usually Mullah Richard pops in to answer questions like that one. |

#2 What about "wearing"? Burkha is OK if you're on a watch list & need to slip out undetected. |
