Malawians protest attacks over pants
|
|
It's been 18 years since the late dictator Hastings Kamuzu Banda's "indecency in dress" laws were repealed in Malawi, but mobs of men in the conservative southern African country have been publicly stripping women of their miniskirts and pants, claiming they are "un-Malawian." On Jan. 20, hundreds of outraged women protested the attacks while wearing pants or miniskirts and T-shirts emblazoned with such slogans as, "Real men don't harass women." During Banda's dictatorship, women in Malawi were banned from wearing pants and short skirts. (AP)
