Of course, depictions of Muhammad are verboten to begin with, but given women’s status in Islam, maybe that’s why making Muhammad in any way “feminine” is taken as that much more of an insult. “Nepal bans school book after Muslim outcry,” from Indo-Asian News Service, June 21 (thanks to Twostellas): The Nepal government Monday banned […]
