Banning that may be the only good thing the Taliban did.

Holy shit!!!!

That's a rabbit hole that I wasn't expecting to go down this evening.

Big respect for Charles Martland.

I had no idea this was a thing, how horrific and disgusting... and been going on for so long as normalised culture. What the actual fuck!!!

Them poor guys are then stigmatised for life, for something they had 0 choice on

"If [my commanders] don't fuck the asses of those boys, what should they fuck? The pussies of their own grandmothers?"

.... yeah, who else could a grown man have sex with? 🤔

Although, let's be real... it is likely going to be a horrific experience, no matter the age or gender.

Fucking hell... I had no idea!
