Heres the mystery woman who ditched her burqa in Afghanistan and sauntered around Kabul with her legs showing stunning onlookers and scandalizing the countrys mullahs.
I was shocked, the man who took the photo, local journalist Hayat Ensafi, told the BBC.
I know I had to catch this special moment because I never saw a woman here walking down the streets like this.
He tried to talk to her, but she walked very fast and didnt talk to me at all.
He posted the shot on Facebook and it has gone viral.
The whole city of Kabul is shocked, he told the British network.
...
During the 1960s and 70s, womens rights made some progress in Afghanistan. Many still wore veils, but skirts were common.
But the Taliban rolled back womens rights and now its back to the burqa.

By now, anyway.

The period under the pro-Soviet regime prior to the Soviet invasion was about as civilized as Afghanistan ever got.
But I suspect that was a thin veneer, and largely only in Kabul.
Awful awful place.

She’s wearing socks, no shoes.
She may have escaped from some place, for good or for ill.

I think that we need to get an expert opinion on this matter. ;-)

The guy in the background of the first picture looks like he wants to run and hide.

Sort of reminds me of stories of old men in the Old West who would sit on steps outside businesses so they could ogle at the ankles of the ladies who raised their dresses slightly as they walked up the steps.
