But if a girl is forced to wear something by her family from day 1 that has a lot of implications. The cultures crash as Huntington would say.


Obviously you need to go back and read what I said. Muslims who state that wearing hijab is oppressive, in my opinion, are unclear about their faith. Wearing it is not intended to restrict women in any form. Now I agree that a person shouldn't be FORCED to do anything. You should behave according to what you feel is right in that case. However, you can't take parts of a faith and not all and call yourself a true believer, in my opinion. Either you are or you aren't...

So are you? Mohammed (remember that guy) hated the hijabs.
