Russia bans lacy lingerie
Given that current home made underwear items in Russia make Mormon "temple garments" look stylish, stopping Russian women from buying La Perla and Victoria's Secret is going to work out really well. Here's something that Pussy Riot can really get behind, so to speak.
What's the odds that this will spark off a Lysistrata style protest?
Can't see this panning out well with the male vote either. All those Russian soldiers and navy sailors, sometimes spending months on duty without any female delights to lighten the drudgery. are going to be mightily pissed off if the government tells them their wives and girlfriends can't wear something alluring to welcome them home with. Personally, I'd think twice about pissing off people who have access to tanks and nuclear submarines, but then I'm not Vladimir Putin.
