Source: Mumbai bans lingerie-clad mannequins to save men from 'impure thoughts' - Telegraph
Wow. Just wow.![banghead :banghead: :banghead:](/community/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/banghead.gif)
Local councillors, known as corporators, said mannequins dressed in lacey underwear, stockings and suspenders, had led to a "pollution of minds" among men in the city, which has India's second highest number of rapes after Delhi.
Opponents said the mannequins were not as suggestive as erotic sculptures and carvings at celebrated temples like Khajuraho, which feature scenes of group sex and bestiality.
Members of Mumbai's Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation, however, said the mannequins were illegal and immoral. "I have raised this issue and want an end to showcasing of women's body on Mumbai streets. Mannequins displaying two-piece clothes or other lingerie are corrupting the minds of people and are against the morals of the society. This affects the mindset of men towards women and they see her as a commodity. As a member of the society, we have to understand the awkwardness a woman or a family in a market will feel standing in front of such a mannequin," said Ritu Tawade, who proposed the ban.
Wow. Just wow.
