First, my caption as it demands one: Darn, I wore the burka that makes me look fat... I am going to burn this photo. I am sure the regular caption winners will do so much better!!
Second, better some bland clothing than the shoes my son bought at Big Five sporting goods, as they have MAO(as in Mao-you know) on the bottom of them...the burka says something about the culture that is in the picture as does a pair of sneakers from an American sporting store...see the shoes here: http://doublenickelfarm.blogspot.com/2010/01/mao-in-style.html

What's the point of taking a picture like this?

I know some of you don't mean to trivialize this travesty forced on these women. Some of the comments are pretty funny. My intention is not to spoil the fun, but please excuse me for not joining in. It turns my stomach to see women subjugated like this and then have the ridiculousness of posing for a photograph imposed on them.

Oyster and Hank,
Please do not mistake levity with the seriousness of what the photo represents. The captions come from having an awareness that the culture that these women are subjugated to leaves them with little hope of any real life outside of complete and utter submission to a 7th century world in the 21st century.
As I linked in my comment above I share how our very own society has and continues to uplift the evil freaks of the world. We promote anything but our culture anymore(the link has MAO crap) We live in political correct times, where our president tells the Arab world that we are no longer and Christian nation...we live in a society where our elected officials cowtow to this abusive of women and wear headcoverings when acting as head of state.
We live in times where we are called racists for even suggesting that the women in the above photo are subjugated. Make no mistake about it levity is needed...especially when MAO has not only been turned into a cult icon in the US, but is revered by those in the White House and is fashioned into the soles of sneakers sold at a national sporting goods chain. Please click on my link above...either we stand and say what it is or not- but no more PC some customs of other cultures(and most certainly dictators of other nations) do not need our making them famous, what is needed is for us to stand with those suppressed and allow hope to shine in their lives(you know real hope, not Obamahope).

All kidding aside for a minute on my part-
Whenever I see this ritualized dehumanization of women, it breaks my heart. I always thank God that I am a woman in America.
I would love to see a version of this picture, two seconds later, where each of these women pulls an Uzi out from under her burkha and tells the men that things are about to change.
