The burqa is usually understood to be the woman's loose body-covering (Arabic: jilbāb), plus the head-covering (Arabic: ḥijāb, taking the most usual meaning), plus[citation needed] the face-veil (Arabic: niqāb)...... thats from wikipedia! and if you notice how the word covering appears a lot. so you are pretty much trying to cover the muslim women's personality.

I agree. Women WERE forced to wear burqas and it was not a choice. if it WERE a choice their probably wouldn't be so many religious conflicts.

i agree. As long as women are dressed in a form that is appreciated and not discraceful, they should be able to wear any clean form of clothing.

I agree with Bennett. and the women should not have to feel that way epecially when the people are telling them to cover their whole face when they don't really have to.

I agree because women do not want to look like other women some want to look like an idividual not a clone.

i agree. I think that the islam people should just respect their women for who they are and as an idividual not a group.

I agree. It's like the people are telling the women that they are not their own person, and that they are frowned upon.

I agree. if the people knew more about this in the koran, they probably would wear something that just covers the body or hair.

Most men and women also think that it is away of hiding their women. Women also believe that is showing to the people that they are not supported.
