Also Swaziland? *facepalm*
The only thing that could make 'arresting women for "inviting ****" by wearing certain styles of clothing' more fucked up than it is... is to then turn around and make this exception.
Quote:
However, the ban does not apply to traditional costumes worn by young women during ceremonies like the annual Reed Dance, where the ruling King Mswati III chooses a wife.
The monarch already has 13 wives.
During the ceremony, beaded traditional skirts worn by young bare-breasted virgins cover only the front, leave the back exposed. Underwear is not allowed.
