Yes. It's the sheer lunacy of the situation that I'm remarking on. Which, indeed, has been the focus of the thread. It's not, "North Korea is X," it's "North Korea is X in the most asinine way possible."

Yeah, but I thought that they didn't have anything much better they could ban the ladies from?

From what I've read, bikes are pretty much it. So it's about removing some of the ability of women to get around on their own, but it's also banning women from riding as passengers (pointless sexism rather than sexism with a goal) and the carrying of more than a certain weight on a bicycle (stifling economic activity because... reasons).

It also sounds like, prior to the initial lifting of the ban, it was basically a slap-on-the-wrist offense (~$40 US fine at the most), as opposed to confiscation. So it's essentially a move that will further damage their economy done for the sake of sexism and general stupidity, which tend to go hand in hand anyway.

Every day when I check this thread I kind of half-expected to hear that North Korea blew itself up from some nuclear mishap or something.

Nah, their nukes are barely half the yield of Fat Man. One of them wouldn't even take out all of Pyongyang.

The Vaginastretch is hardly a NK invention. Horseriding used to be said to cause the same problem in Europe.
