Burqa Porn

Foreign Policy has a rather pointless slideshow of Afghan women in burqas entitled Veil or Prison.

*Pointless in the sense that the photos do almost nothing to illuminate the complex issue of veils in Afghan society. Although I suppose they might serve a useful function as Afghan porn.

Um, here's a question: why does it have to either/or? Can't it be both?
