Turkish Prime Minister Says Women Should Not Laugh In Public

Hurriyet – Women should not laugh out loud in public, Deputy Prime Minister Bülent Ar?nç has said while complaining about “moral corruption” in Turkey. Speaking during an Eid el-Fitr meeting on July 28, Ar?nç described his ideal of the chaste man or woman, saying they should both have a sense of shame and honor. “Chastity is so important. It is not only a name. It is an ornament for both women and men. [She] will have chasteness. Man will have it, too. He will not be a womanizer. He will be bound to his wife. He will love his children. [The woman] will know what is haram and not haram. She will not laugh in public. She will not be inviting in her attitudes and will protect her chasteness,” Ar?nç said, adding that people had abandoned their values today. People needs to discover the Quran once again, Ar?nç said, adding that there had been a regression on moral grounds. “Where are our girls, who slightly blush, lower their heads and turn their eyes away when we look at their face, becoming the symbol of chastity?” he said. He said some TV series geared toward young people had because teenagers to grow up only as “sex addicts,” accusing those who abuse the excitement of youths with publications on TV, the web, newspapers, or in educational places, especially in universities. Ar?nç also complained about high consumption, referring to the number of cars and mobile phones that individuals have. Targeting women once more, Ar?nç said women talk about unnecessary things on the phone. “Women give each other meal recipes while speaking on the mobile phone. ‘What else is going on?’ ‘What happened to Ay?e’s daughter?’ ‘When is the wedding?’ Talk about this face to face,” he said. People should not use their personal cars unnecessarily, he also said, adding that even if the Nile River was full of oil, there would not be enough fuel to power cars.

Well looks like its time to break out the KFC Map Of Places I’d Live and update it:

Not that Turkey was EVER on the list to begin with but I just wanted to make sure I update the map to officially reflect that Turkey is off the map. Buncha prude chicks walking around not laughing is like my worst nightmare. As a guy who has only gotten laid a mediocre amount of time strictly by trying to be funny, a country where chicks are banned from laughing is my nightmare. I mean I suppose the flip side of things is that you just order them around and tell them to have sex with you and they have to obey? I guess that part’s not so bad. But the thought of a bunch of silent, prude chicks just giving you the ice grill every time you crack a joke focusing strictly on their chastity is about as lame as it gets. And on top of that he’s saying no cars or cell phones? Get the fuck out of here, Turkey. No laughing no texting and I gotta walk everywhere? And its in the Middle East? Sounds like the worst place on Earth. Off the list.
