But in the same way - Western women have been adjusting their looks and outfits to what was pushed to them by Western men What! Are you saying western women only wear the clothes they do because they are forced to by western men? Unless you are talking about clothes designers, which are both men and women, so I don't see your point. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purdey Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Isn't it funny how we treat women differenly depending on their skin colour or religion? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post teelac777 Posted June 20, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 20, 2022 I understand banning of the burqa for security reasons, just like you can't enter a shop in France wearing a bike helmet. I also understand that for the French lifestyle the burqa is generally a tad extreme. But I don't follow all the fuss over burkinis at all. Who could be offended by someone wearing a burkini? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Face mask requirement in public was lifted last month. It's not apples to apples anyway because that rule was to protect people from COVID, not related to social integration.

What you are doing is forcing your dress requirements on them. Freedom of religion includes freedom to dress how they want. How does it hurt you that they dress in a particular way? I would agree with you should the countries they are coming from accept my wife wearing a bikini on their beaches..... By the way, I think you never visited France recently....... Maybe the current situation of emigration in this country would make you think slightly differently... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's interesting to note the selective chronology of Christian nations don't you think? The numbers killed displaced terrorised and traumatised in the name of Christian 'religious' values is considerable throughout the history of man.

There is absolutely no reason to ban burkinis If people wish to wear them, then so be it. Well let a trans gendered none Muslim man try to wear one in public and see if the Muslims are happy about other people / races / religions wearing them. ????

No sane women would want to go swimming dresses like that. Have you asked all sane women in this world? Some time ago I knew a pretty young woman who visited Morocco. While she was there she covered herself according to the local rules. And she liked it. She told me she though it was comfortable that she could walk around without anybody staring at her. And she was used to those stares from the western world. Why not leave it up to the women how they want to dress? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
