The decision by Douma City Council in the Damascus countryside prohibits “the groom entering women’s celebrations in the halls of Douma city”, according to a copy of the order published by the council.
It means that even the groom himself cannot enter the women’s section of a wedding celebration.
In socially conservative parts of Syria, weddings are usually segregated by gender. However at the end of the women’s party the groom usually enters to meet the bride and take her home.
Speaking of cotext, the US is threatening to nuke Iran and dehumanizing Muslims is their go-to strategy for poltical justification.
It’s your choice to support that message, just like it’s your choice to support a genocide.
Uh huh. Muslims are above criticism I see. Gotcha.
They’re not, it’s just about context. In this case, it’s only funny as a joke against all muslims. As a joke against conservative Syrian muslims, I guess?
No?
My dude - even the article title specifies a specific city within Syria as where this is happening. The body doesn’t even mention Islam.
Seriously - I hope you stretched first.
So what is the joke?
That Douma passed an absurd law which has the locals going “Dude WTF?!”
What make in oniony? What is the irony? Is every stupid law fodder for this place?
