«إِيشْ عَلَى بَالِ الْقِرْدْ مِنْ سَوَادْ وِشُّهْ؟»

The saying describes someone so unconcerned with disgrace that public blame or an embarrassing exposure no longer troubles them. It is directed at a person whose conduct has reached a point where shame has lost its restraining force.

Its force lies in portraying dishonor as plainly visible yet wholly ignored. It may be said critically when someone persists in objectionable behavior, but the comparison is insulting if applied directly to a person and should not be treated as a judgment about appearance or any group.

Use it as a harsh rebuke for blatant shamelessness or indifference to a damaged reputation, when criticism, scandal, or obvious embarrassment fails to deter someone. It concerns disregard for disgrace, not ordinary confidence, minor social judgments, or an unwillingness to follow convention.
