Well expressed point Ian. In Bahrain, women have voted more conservatively than men since the new constitution. It might even be that women will vote for such draconian 'male laws'. I can't get the name right, but there's a Taliban in Nigeria (something like Nagwag Bozo - though he was a real idiot I knew). The name means 'destroyers of education' or somesuch. I might have more time for democracy if I didn't have to spend so much time wondering which of my wives should enjoy cleaning my toenails tonight with a toothbrush and how many of the others I should deign allow the dignity of pleasuring me in order they may increase their small chance of entering heaven, where I shall reject them in any case for fresh virgin. I used to vote myself, but now that uneducated women can it is easier just to send the harem off, certain in the knowledge they will do the job for me in order to keep the only life of bliss they know. A democracy of fools is perhaps no democracy at all. Even our taxes are low, now that you British send soldiers over to suppress our hotheads, though your chaps are not as cooperative as the Americans when it comes to the profitable distribution of our poppy crop. Perhaps you could depress the already squalid living standards of their wives and children back in the UK further, in order to increase demand for poppy derivatives?
