    Arabic makeup is known for its dramatic look...it seems that a certain faction of Islamists, chiefly males, are offended by attractive female eyes as this may initiate impure thoughts.

    Why don't Western feminists speak out on this? This is another example of the complete oppression of women in these Islamic countries.

    Islam is a stupid religion.. I hate all religions and mock the idea of God.

    People feel fear so they shift to superstitions and it all ends with repression, which then boils over to revolutions and invasions.

    No invading country or regime turnover can change the infestation called - religion.

    This is BS.. The virtue and vice guys are considered pests by the Saudis and nobody listens to them but idiot Westerners.

    If the Arabs were atheists they'd do the same thing, they just wouldn't blame it on their religion.

    Not so sure about that. Seems like less religious places (secularized quasi-Christian places) encourage more flaunting of tempting female body parts, and men remain responsible to control themselves.

    More importantly, why don't forum right wingers who say Saudi Arabia is our best ally in that region speak out on this?
