Dec. 11th, 2006 08:18 pmRAPE MADE A CRIME IN PAKISTAN.
to call this a step forward of epic proportions is an understatement. moving rape from the brutal misogynism of Sharia law to the holding-men-accountable-for-their-behavior area of secular law is a monumental achievement for democracy at large and for women in Islamist countries in particular. Pakistan is going to take a.lot. of shit over this.
