The hair of women emits rays that drive men into immorality. An ayatollah in Iran said so. Would he lie?

What about unmarried men? Are they punished for screwing around too?
Of course not. They're men. Only women are punished with pregnancy, because they're women. Don't you know nothin'?

I thought it must be like that. Reminds me of Holy Ireland in the days of the Magdalene Laundries (which weren't so long ago). Gosh they were evil things.
