Gadhafi’s secret security: Mighty female “Amazonian Guards”
Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi reportedly had a special taste for body guards by preferring only virgin females, the U.S. based online news Mediaite reported.
Gaddafi, now effectively ousted, had a selected elite force in charge of his security. Those adequate to take the responsibility must be “virgins hand-picked by Gaddafi,” according to the news.
The candidates had to make oath that they would sacrifice themselves for Gadhafi and were required to remain virgins throughout their duty. Despite strict doctrines, the job was popular among Libyan women, Blitz reported.
They also had to go through marital arts and firearms training before actually being dispatched.
Amid speculation that the force’s duties included “sexual favors,” Gadhafi claimed that the system “empowers” women, making them strong enough to protect themselves from enemies, Mediaite added.

카다피 보호하는 최강 여성 경호원들은 누구?
리비아의 독재자 무아마르 카다피의 여성 중심으로 이루어진 “아마존 경호원”의 실체가 밝혀졌다고 인터넷 신문 Mediatie이 보도했다.
카다피는 스스로 직접 처녀 만을 선발하여 자신에게 충성을 다짐하도록 요구한 것으로 나타났다. 선발 된 여성들은 무술 및 군사 훈련 등을 거친 뒤 카다피 경호에 투입이 되었다.
복무하는 동안 계속 순결을 지켜야 하는 등 까다로운 조건이 많음에도 불구하고, 리비아 여성 사이에서는 이 직업이 인기라고 Blitz는 전했다.
한편 이 여성들이 성적 욕구 충족을 위해 창설 되었을 것이라는 의혹이 제기되는 반면, 카다피는 이러한 제도가 여성들이 자기 스스로를 보호하는 능력을 키우는 등 여성의 지위 강화에 기여할 것이라 밝힌 바 있다.
