It is a sad reflection on any country, indeed on any ’set of beliefs’ when a woman can be imprisoned for something as utterly unimportant as wearing trousers.
Starvation, poverty, disease, cruelty, homelessness, THESE are issues worthy of our attention.
The fact that a woman may wear a pair of trousers is utterly unimportant. How WE the rest of the world treat a woman is dependent solely on US and NOT on what she was wearing! ALL people should be treated with respect, compassion, kindness and equality, no matter what they wear, no matter where they live, no matter what religion they follow.
And oh so funny that a MAN paid her fine in order to HUSH the matter, to silence the protest, to keep the media away, to blind the rest of the world. Let us NOT be blind to the maltreatment of ANYONE!
