On Monday, Twitter user @Wokieleaksalt decided to circulate a screenshot of a Facebook post published by Fahad Qadeer - a man who many are claiming is a Pakistani scientist (but, we seriously have our doubts).
Qadeer - who blessed the world with his views on hijab - explains that women need to wear the hijab because "male eyes emit such radiations which can cause skin cancer, damage hairs, etc of a female [sic]."
He explains that the hijab is worn to "prevent [women] from such harmful radiations."
The Twitter account - which shared the original screenshot - has since been suspended. But, that really hasn't stopped other tweeps from sharing the photo with a touch of sarcasm.
It all started with this
And then came the birth of hilarious memes
"Einstein turned in his grave" at the breakthrough discovery
Some resorted to #QadeerLogic to make a point
Some proposed simple solutions to his theory
BREAKING: "The real threat are male eyes"
Wait, so do these male radiations only affect females? Are male genes immune?
HELP!
Wait ... it's real. There is proof.
