Headscarfs, burqas, chadors - Have Your Say

Because it's not just the French.

they're all disgusting and should be banned

(i take it 'have your say' means we're to post in that style?)

please god no.

ok in that case making somebody wear these isn't ideal, and banning someone that wants to wear them from doing so is far from ideal.

make 'em colourful and fashionable and get people (inc men?) wearing them just for those reasons

I'm confused (which perhaps serves me right for getting my info from wiki) about what particular countries actually do at the moment. As was mentioned in the other thread the French are thinking about banning something from somewhere but it's not clear (to me anyway) what exactly and where exactly? I'm not even sure of the law here in the UK. wrt, for instance, helmets and balaclavas, banned in banks, but that's presumably a private company's decision, not any legal requirement? Wouldn't any law end up a terrible mess?

do Bluewater still ban hoodies with hoods up? did they ever?

my local shopping centre bans hoods, or is said to, and has chucked out the proverbial little old lady as a result. but i've worn a hood up in there and -- nothing.

make 'em colourful and fashionable

you know this already happens right? god am trying to remember the name of that muslim fashion site that manara sent me

Yes.

balaclavas for all

Yup, there's enough to go round!

tesco is banning people wearing pajamas or bare feet apparently?

to answer the thread question. banning headscarfs etc is fucking stupid

pajamas are of Muslim origin so its just another slap in the face

balaclavas for all

don't bring bloody vampire weekend into this

they'll ban 0 next

jesus was bare foot all the time. can't believe people are STILL being persecuted for literally following in his foot steps.

bare feet is more carbon neutral than wearing plastic bags on feet.

yeah but think of the diseases you might pick up. putting even more pressure on the fit to burst NHS.

jesus was a capricorn he never wore no shoes......

can i just re-point out, for those who didn't click: DIAMONDS ON MY NECK, D-DIAMONDS ON MY VEIL

awes. also i just realized there isn't a single picture of me in a hijab anywhere lol... worst muslim ever.

that bill maher video makes me want to punch a dick.

i don't want to "have my say"! i'm not muslim! it's none of my damn business! man those laws make me so mad.

so, tower hamlets wants to spend £2million on a big metal sculpture of a hijab at the entrance to brick lane. what an excellent use of public money.

how are we supposed to reply without a daily mail article to c&p from?

i like headscarves

i think theyre sensual

but what you think might depend on your cultural background

the burquas and nikkabs, im personally not so keen on.

though much of that is just cos i like to see a womans face. and only seeing the eyes seems unfair.

what if ur head gets cold, what then, europe

Indeed.

I often hear the word "hijab" to the tune of Cyndi Lauper's "She-Bop".

i think i'd look pretty cool in a keffiyeh

in North Africa now, kinda weirded out by the women with a cloth across their mouths , dunno what it's called, just a reg headscarf plus that

I love seeing dudes wearing like, really awesome suits and turbans. Or teenage girls in mall-clothes and a hijab.
there used to be an Ethiopian woman on my tram in the morning and she had a full burqa but then these rad girly sneakers with rhinestones on them and shit.
