Women's Unclean Breasts Cause Diarrhea,

[teko]

The inability of women in rural Egypt to clean their breasts is causing a diarrhoea epidemic, according to the country's Prime Minister Hisham Qandil.

Qandil was speaking about the spate of recent epidemics in Egypt's rural communities. During the address, he said he had witnessed children suffering from diarrhoea immediately after they have been breastfed because their mothers were unable to clean themselves probably.

He added that many women in rural Egypt don't even bother to clean their breasts at all before feeding their toddlers.

Qandil made his remarks during an address at a cabinet meeting. Women members present were noticeably uncomfortable  as Qandil made the comments.

Qandil previously caused widespread anger by offering a bizarre solution to Egypt's power crisis. He urged the Egyptians to wear cotton clothes and gather in a single room to conserve power.

I think the idea of the post was that women are not able to clean themselves properly.  I believe it stems from a problem with adequate water supplies.

Stir fried genitals; cheese encrusted breasts?  Yuck........... next we're going to be hearing about frosted butt cheeks................lol

I don't think so,

"He added that many women in rural Egypt don't even bother to clean their breasts at all before feeding their toddlers."

He's saying  they don't even bother to clean their breasts at all.Think about it, I don't care how big the Fun Bags are, it don't take very much water to clean them.

"He added that many women in rural Egypt don't even bother to clean their breasts at all before feeding their toddlers."   Aahh,come on, I'm just sure that's because they have a water shortage and haven't been taught proper hygiene, right?  You know, this might be their custom, too; just like years ago, we got to have one bath a week and that was it; the rest of the time the best we could do was a "spit shine".... but you're probably too young to remember that....  I'm trying to give them the benefit of doubt.  LOL

And don't forget - women in Russia don't shave their legs, or at least didn't used to....... I remember some Russian women coming to a company I worked for -- the hair on their legs was longer than the hair on my head and all kind of curly ....I couldn't take my eyes off their legs........ yikes......

teko, I think it's great that you're finding things that aren't political; not everything in life has to revolve around politics and we get so passionate about it.  We need to have some fun for a change.  Thanks

Or maybe that’s their custom for weaning them. Let them get so nasty the kids eventually don’t want anything to do with them and if they do, they get sick. I don't even want to think about how they deal with an over sexed husband.

This is a really good reminder that we take so many things for granted.  A shower with clean water once a day is a luxery in some places.
