Default Indonesian Province bans men and women dining together unless related

https://amp.theguardian.com/world/20...r-islamic-aceh

Disturbing story with outrageous little explanations like it's to help the women behave. Women are also put under curfew by the directive that they should not be served after 9pm.

Interestingly this province also publicly whips you for being gay, drinking or gambling.

Just think that's most of tibb at odds with the law there, if you aren't female or gay, chances are you've had a glass of wine or beer in your lifetime and quite a few people have a bet on which housemate will win CBB! How difficult it must be to live under these kinds of rules.

Makes you wonder if the next step is publicly whipping you for being a woman. Not really a stretch of the imagination if they will whip you for your sexuality.

Sounds like a lovely holiday spot.
