Women’s Affairs Are Men’s Affairs
A meeting of Women In Business And Politics. They’re really quite capable, that 50% of the population.
To quote Minister Of Child Development And Women’s Affairs Tissa Karaliyadda, “When a woman is given authority in a department or a ministry they tend to suppress other women are under their administration out of jealousy. This situation will lead to inefficiency in that particular organization. Hence always the main chair should be given to a male and the assistant should be a female”. Er, no. I always thought it was odd that women’s affairs was under a man but now it seems completely wrong. On the other hand, Marvyn Silva is Public Relations Minister, so perhaps they chose ministries on Opposites Day.
It also seems that Mr. Karaliyadda isn’t the adept at child development either. In 2012 he said that students shouldn’t be punished stringently, only caned. Except kids really shouldn’t be caned at school.
Seriously, not to belabor a point, but these guys really aren’t so good at the modern governing stuff.

This is why Sri Lanka can’t have nice things…backward thinking, medieval buffoons put into places of power and authority. Long live the king…

“Let the women learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.” (I Timothy 2:11-14)
“Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything.” (Ephesians 5:22-24)
“But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.” (I Corinthians 11:3)
“Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law. And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.” (I Corinthians 14:34-35)
“For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man. Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.” (I Corinthians 11:8-9)
“And the daughter of any priest, if she profane herself by playing the whore, she profaneth her father: she shall be burnt with fire.” (Leviticus 21:9)

“Samaria shall become desolate; for she hath rebelled against her God: they shall fall by the sword: their infants shall be dashed in pieces, and their women with child shall be ripped up.” (Hosea 13:16)
“The whoredom of a woman may be known in her haughty looks and eyelids. If thy daughter be shameless, keep her in straitly, lest she abuse herself through overmuch liberty.” (Eccles. 26:9-10)
