You might have a problem getting all the Sudanese to do that.
No offence but are you retard? Find me the Quote in the Quran where says women should be whipped for wearing trousers?
It's not Islamic rule, its the rule of the state.

Funnily enough unlike some, I'm not brain washed and I certainly don't need to find a passage from the Quran to have self acknowledgement of right and wrong. From common sense alone I know what happened to that woman was uncalled for.

Surprising that the Africa has been inhabited by man for almost the longest yet it is still the most sorry assed continent on the planet.
It's both. It's unreasonable to claim that the rule of Islamic law in the Sudan has nothing to do with Islam. Some Muslims would say that it's not the right interpretation, but others would say it is. Islam does impose clothing restrictions and obviously punishments are required for breaching them (otherwise they can't be imposed) and that's why these laws exist in countries where Islam has enough power. Disagreeing with how different Muslims interpret the rules of Islam is one thing. Claiming that it has nothing to do with Islam is another thing entirely, and rather silly.
Yes, I remember her being whipped through the streets...oh, wait, that never happened. Ah well, public whippings are such a trivial detail that it doesn't matter. As is the difference between a minor and an adult and the difference between a uniform and private clothing.
You must have miss read what I stated yes there are clothing restrictions in Islam, But the Fact remains no where in the Quran does it state that women cannot wear trousers, there for this is not a Islamic rule imposed by the Sudan.

Historically Britain experienced one of the most robust systems of individual rights in Europe, so while there is a clear gradient between previous and modern systems of human rights, I think the term 'virtually no rights' followed by humanitarian issues, while tragic in themselves, that bear no comparison to basic guarantees of individual safety or belief, is pretty misleading, even leaving aside the gaps I see in the argument that differing historical progressions dictates diminished humanitarian concern.
Also, what you quoted in bold from Moses99p does not really counter his point. You say that cultures should be shielded from some criticism on this issue but not all, and he said he does not believe a persons views should be affected by the history of his own country. I don't really see how your reply interacts with his point.
No, I didn't misread what you stated. I explained why you were wrong. You're still wrong, for the same reasons. So I could just cut and past my last reply, but anyone who cares can follow the posts back.
It doesn't explicitly state in the Koran that women can't wear thigh-high leather boots and latex. Does that mean all Muslims must agree that it's fine for women to dress that way?

half a million dead in a genocide 300 miles to the west in Sudan and we are getting irate at a woman being whipped in the capital for wearing trousers...
It's disgusting.
The human race has been around for about 200,000 years and yet we still act like we still live in caves.
Yes, they live in a differnet country with different beliefs but that does not give them the right to treat people the way they do.
Countries like these need to evolve, and if they don't then they need to be forced. You can say that it's not for us to decide how they treat there people but as a human, i don't like to see any fellow human being treated this way.
We as a race need to make sure that this kind of barbaric behavior never ever happens again.
The sooner we all unite under one flag with one law for all the better.

That was a dress code and many places here still have that albeit restaurants, clubs or work but they're not publicly wiped for breaking it.
