Yes but is still unfair to women. When you think about it, it is pretty much saying that women need to be covered because of their gender. They cant change who they are they were born that way and thats they way that they will stay.

Because Nuns choose to be nuns they dont have to be nuns... and the nuns know that when they become a nun they have to wear that covering. Women do not choose to be women they cant choose their gender they are who they are and they should be able to embrace their femininity. How would you feel if you were walking down the street and no one knew who you were... it would feel terrible because you cant even show your sense of style. It is like a school uniform no one can show their true style if they are completly hidden by a burqa!

Yes I said the wrong thing... i think that since we can except others differences that other countrys may be influenced by us. They should give the muslims a chance to be able to choose if they want to wear it because it is unfair to make them wear it.. and it is still unfair to take away their religion.... But i think that if we can be accepting of others, different countrys can do that too!!!

I toatlly disagree the turban is much more reaviling, with the burqa you cant even tell who the person is at least with the turban they will be able to tell their identity!!

1 point

Yes i know that it isnt our choice but if it is a religous tradition they wont have a choice.... they will have to wear it!!

If burqas have differnt types why cant they personalize them to a whole new level like the ice cream suit or the banana suit... as long as it goes with the original idea of it covering their face and whole body why cant they personalize them.

How can they feel important if they have no part of their body showing not even their face...... that would be like someone right now wearing a full covering garbage bag... not to offensive to the burqa!!

Yah but if it is so important for girls to wear it why dont men have to it is unfair to make just women wear it and have the men just wear traditional stuff. If people are going to make the women wear the burqa should men have to wear something similair, because the men should have to be modest to the female!

I agree with you Emilie... how would you like to put this technicly full body cover to just do simple things like get a full water tank or anything like that?

1 point

I dont agree.... This is not about equality it is about their freedom. Some women are to scared to take them off because they never know who the people are that are supporting the taliban, they are to scared they will get beaten!

Danny, I know that America is the land of the free, but what about the other people in other countrys? And I think that America is one of the most excepting countrys.... look at our president!

Autumn, that is true it is unfair to make people wear things that they dont need to it would be better if they just have to cover their hair.

1 point

I think the burqa is oppresive to women because women should not have to wear the burqa, it takes away their sence of individulism, and by wearing the burqa they are losing their femine side, by covering their whole body. Women mostly wear it because they only feel safer in Afganistan because if they do not wear it they will probably be beaten.
