Off With Their Heads!!

MannequinsI’m all for respecting the beliefs of others, but this is just plain batshit crazy.

DUBAI, FEBRUARY 21 - Mannequins should be beheaded: this is the directive issued by the authorities of Sharjah to all the clothing shops in the emirate. “The mannequins should be headless and the clothing in the window should respect the rules of decency, according to the religious principles,” stated a circular of Sharjah, one of the seven emirates which form the United Arab Emirates.

If you’re going to do anything to mannequins, give them some belly rolls or cellulite so I feel like a pretty princess by comparison and not a botox injected, plastic boobied woman striving for perfection like I am now….okay that’s a total lie, but if I didn’t have too much self esteem, I wouldn’t be the Brandy that we all know and love….or tolerate. Yeah, just barely tolerate seems to be the general consensus.
