Reducing modesty to "geopolitics" shows you can't address the core idea. A Muslim woman chooses to cover her body out of faith, not because of the British Empire or a Western "upgrade". Our dignity doesn't need Western approval.
Livestock pens are for cattle.
The British Empire put up with this Salafist nonsense because they needed you guys to topple the Turks.
Now that Turkey can screw itself over with sophistication, no foreign intervention required, you need a software upgrade if you want top cover.
Youโre missing the point. Iโm talking about Muslim women and the Islamic concept of modesty and privacy. Itโs not based on the assumption that men canโt control themselves. A Muslim womanโs body isnโt for public display; protecting her privacy is a matter of faith and dignity.
@gwaowd Yes, whoever said that clearly doesnโt realize that Azmi Bishara took this woman under his wing and coached her. She is a small example of the 2007 coup, Fatah and the PA embraced Hamas, and Hamas turned against them.
@naomirwolf We protect our womenโs privacy and donโt allow strangers to look at their bodies. They are precious to us, not cheap commodities or objects of desire. We have a large private garden where they can dress beautifully and feel comfortable without unwanted eyes watching them at all.
