Penis sheaths to be banned in Papua police crackdown?

Natives of Papua New Guinea
INDONESIAN ANTI-PORN LAW
NATIVES TOLD TO WEAR UNDERWEAR
Papua New Guinea tribesmen wear elaborate feathered headwear along with some equally impressive penis accessories.

The sheath is normally made from a dried out gourd made of a type of pumpkin, and is tied both around the scrotum and the chest to hold it in place.

Politicians in Indonesia have clashed with natives from Papua New Guinea – after declaring that their penis sheaths are offensive and pornographic.

Decorative ‘koteka’ have been worn by male inhabitants of New Guinea to cover their manhood for centuries.

But last October, Indonesian authorities passed an anti-porn law which empowers authorities to jail people for any sexually suggestive performance.

Now natives may be forced to wear western-style underpants to cover their genitals.

Suroba, a native between 60 and 70 years old who just wears feathers and his penis sheath, is adamant, however, that he will not wear undies. In the 1970s, a Muslim-dominated government tried without success to ban the ‘koteka’.

“Back then we wore our traditional clothes, and we are still wearing them today,” Suroba said.

He and his fellow tribe members live in the mountain valley of Baliem, which belongs to the Indonesian province of Papua, in the west of New Guinea. Since the Second World War, they have had almost no contact with the outside world and still live in their traditional ways.

But the anti-porn law is highly controversial, with many opponents criticising it for threatening regional cultures.

Even phallic totem poles in Papua or drawings in Balinese temples, which are mainly populated by Hindus, could be threatened by the crackdown. In Bali thousands have already taken to the streets in protest.

Lemok Mabel from the local council for ancient customs in Papua said: “The anti-porn law is a definite threat, as it goes against our cultural values. It violates the rights of the aborigines.”

But the regional head of police said: “It is unlikely that we will implement the law, because the people here are too traditional. For them the penis sheath is not pornographic, it is simply a piece of clothing.”

Recently, intrepid Italian photographer Iago Corazza journeyed through Papua New Guinea, and revealed that cannibals claimed Japanese people taste the best!

Too small? Click here This is a satirical website. None of what you read here has anything to do with Islam, because Islam is a Religion of Peace. Everybody knows that good Muslims never do the things they do, (because Allah does it for them, Quran 8:12) and we know that only our misperceptions, ignorance and stereotyping of Islam makes Muslims chop off heads, kill and rape women and children, bomb subways, buses, nightclubs and fly jets into buildings. If it wasn't for the media and da Jooozzz, we wouldn't even know its happening. We welcome open, honest, thoughtful, and vigorous discussion in the comments threads, so do yourself a favour and don't accuse us of being 'haters' because we are loving, tolerant people. Don't curse us, don't threaten us with death or hellfire, and don't accuse us of being "just like the terrorists" because we don't do to Muslims what they do to us or to themselves. Yes, we know that only idiots oppose Islam and sensible people submit, but  you should know that we are ignorant bigots, hypocrites and Islamophobes, and we prefer to remain that way... But since you are forcing yourselves (and your abhorrent belief-system on us) we will defend ourselves, because we must. Avoid tu quoque and ad hominem attacks. Don't bother with circular reasoning either, we been there, done it.  If you annoy us, you will be banned and your posts summarily deleted. Try to add to the discussion, don't try to sell snake oil, don't try to cover us with Islamic shrouds of kitman and taqiyya, don't bother with da'awa, (we've heard it before) don't spam us with long pieces of cut & paste, write in English, try to tell the truth, (we know that's hard for you because you are all pathological liars) but the truth will set you free, try it! One more thing: don't think you can post here under multiple monikers. You will quickly be disappeared! The same goes for trufers and conspiracy kooks: you get one chance, one time. Blow it out of your ass if you must; put your stupidity on display. But you won't be back, trust me on that. Take a deep breath before you post, try to make some sense, do not just vent, do not make a fool of yourself and if you prove us wrong you can earn 10 Islamic dollars for your piggy bank. Deal?

Quite apart from the – ahem – spectacle, I can see that there are purely practical reasons why those gourd things would be preferred to other forms of lower-body-clothing. They shield a man’s soft and delicate vulnerables in a jungle environment rife, at waist height, with Things With Sharp Prickles. Underdaks, jeans, Muslim-style robe, anything made of cloth will merely catch, rip, tear, and not protect. In fact, I’m surprised that the women don’t wear similar things, slightly differently shaped, on their breasts, to ward off the wait-a-while vines or whatever prickly nasties one encounters in the Papuan jungle.

Let them use their old custom of canabalism on these muslims. Who knows may be they taste better than the Japanese.
How far will these people go to force their believe on other nations?
They will move on unless we stop them.

This is yet ANOTHER example of how Islam DESTROYS all other cultures until everything conforms to THEIR brainwashed idea of how things should be. You know what that means it mean unlimited CORRUPTION, the rich do just as they will and the PEASANTS are kept in check by the iron rod of Islamic disapproval. Just look at Saudi Arabia for an example of a pure Islamic nation, Arabs don’t work they employ servants(slaves) racial discrimination is rampant (only Arabs count) misogyny is rife corruption out of control. So if this is what you want continue looking the other way while the stupid MSM and the Dhimmi Politicians take you down the road to Mohammedanism.
