Nov 17, 2010: Dumalla

A dumalla, in this case the worlds largest dumalla, is warrior turban.

This is Baba Major Singh, he's a Nihang Sikh, an order of monk-warriors.



I would think it would be a little hard to fight with that turban on, so it must be ceremonial.
1300 feet of fabric, plus all the hardware, would be kind of heavy.
He must walk like those charm school girls with a book on their head, like in the old movies.

The assembly.

Awesome.

He looks like he's walked off the set of a Harry Potter movie. Amirite?

Kind of like that poor guy in the first photo, with the little white turban? He got stuck sitting behind the giant turban on picture day.

Only 100 hairpins? That's not much. I've had 30+ in a hairstyle for just a foot and a half of hair.

"Always, the censors are concerned with how men act, and how women are portrayed. Women cannot make free sexual choices in that world; they are too oppressed to know that only oppression would lead them to sell sex. And I, watching, am either too oppressed to know the harm that my watching has done to my sisters, or--or else I have become the Man. And it is the Man in me who watches and is aroused. (Shame.) What a mysogynistic worldview this is, this claim that women who make such choices cannot be making free choices at all--are not free to make a choice. Feminists against pornography have done a sad and awful thing: *They* have made women into objects."
- Sallie Tisdale in Harper's Magazine: "Talk Dirty to Me--A woman's taste for pornography"
