Today in Unmitigated Douchebaggery

There's a lot to be said about this, and there are better qualified people than I. For mine own part, though, you've got to be a real douche to think it's okay to cane a woman to the evil soundtrack of a jeering crowd of violence-salacious dirtbags.

And you've got to be the biggest douche on the planet to wear a mask* while doing so:


* - But, seriously: if you've already arrived at the place in your world where you can whip a woman unconscious with bamboo or whatever that is, especially because she's having unsanctioned pleasures, why the shame mask? The mask says everything. Literally. It's what speaks, here...

    It's horrid, and the story spawned some pretty creepy comments as well.

    Why can't our fundies and their fundies find some neutral ground in which they can privately fight out their eschatological fantasies?

    BBBB,

    Antarctica. But, that's unfair to the penguins.

    You forget that Antarctica is the home of The Thing. Problem solved.

    The mask is modernly worn to avoid reprisals for his carrying out his mandated duties. I'd guess that long ago it was worn as some sort of non-identity thing where people held that it wasn't really the executioner himself that was meting out punishment, but some embodiment of justice.

    Do you hold that alienation of affection is a shameful thing as well? What is the line where you feel it is wrong to break your contract (your vows and the social contract) and betray your spouse?

    Is it just because it was a woman?
