Exactly! One of the most intelligent responses I've seen so far! Nobody should change their beliefs or identity for the sake of appeasing racists. It's not like these racists will ever be satisfied anyway
@TruthBringer but if they get asked to remove it in educational places, stores etc then they should as only fair as people with hoods etc do
@PeterCharie1991 no. they shouldn't have to remove it. there's no reason for them to, and it's kinda bigoted if they're asked. they need to were it because of their religion, plus most muslim women simply feel more comfortable with it on. we're suppose to have religious freedom in the US anyway, so it really shouldn't be an issue.
I'm from the uk , so it's one rule for one and not the other , I'm glad a lot countries in Europe have banned the burka
@PeterCharie1991 i see. it should still be acceptable to wear burkas and hijabs and abything else like that. there's nothing wrong with it. they shouldn't have banned burkas either. that's oppressive.
@PeterCharie1991 I'm yet to find out a place where hijabs are forbidden to wear in educational places or stores here in the Netherlands. We speak of hijabs, not burkas.

What's Your Opinion? Sign Up Now! Where? If you know then surely you referencing it is more effective than asking me to re-read the Quran and all associated texts.
The passage usually quoted goes something like "Women, beware your beauty, fair skin, lustrous hair and pretty something. Therefore around men at work cpver yourself up modestly to not distract.".
Never ever does it tell people to wear a bunch of fabric over their hair and most of their head. But if it does, I'd love the reference to it!
Oh and to answer the question..
No, I don't think women should just stop wearing it. I chose not to, but that doesn't mean that other women shouldn't wear it. Other people should need to learn to be more respectful towards other cultures.
To me, thats like that women should just stay at home if they don't want to be sexually harassed by men. It doesn't make sense.

It isn't their faith. They simply prefer not being beaten half to death on a daily basis.
@DiscomfortZone Woah! Is there a legit reason to feel that way? I certainly hope you are not in any physical danger. Be safe.
Alright how about everyone everyone stop wearing face mask in public cause people need to know who they are dealing with?
@Neirvana Hijab is not a problem, face mask is not a problem either, because the person is still identifiable.
Burqa (N'ikab) is a problem because identity is lost.. hence, making it easy to commit crimes and bypass security measures.
No actually in a lot of placed there is a girl to check on Niqabis and there are other ways to know the identity of a person
Also for urgent cases even if it's a man officer the Niqabis remove it so the officer or the security make sure who are they, but more respectfully there should be a girl to check
@Neirvana That's not my point. What if, a person wearing Burqa kidnaps a child? How would people know the identity of the kidnapper? CCTV cameras are useless in this scenario. Even witnesses are useless.. because there is no identity. Anyone can wear a Burqa and go anywhere and commit any crime. Police won't stop every woman wearing a Burqa to check her identity.
@Neirvana Nope. With face masks, you can still know the person's gender. And part of their face is still exposed. So security cameras and witnesses are still useful in that scenario.
With all due to respect you do you realise you’re contradicting yourself by saying they can be worn on the streets but not in banks/stores/restaurants etc? What do you expect a woman to do? Take it off when she gets to her destination? First I hear about hoody’s not being allowed too - anyways hoodies are a personal choice but hijabs are a religious one.
@Alyssa11 there's no rules in the street and in banks etc there are , but if a person wears a hoddie you can't see their face and if a Muslim woman wears a burka you can't see her face
That's you're perceptions to interpret on free society
For me free society stand for freedom to do whatever we want , say whatever and dress however we want to
Without this non sense
freedom can't be all encompassing. but islamic values are not compatible with a free society, allowing them to be free creates less freedom overall
its something a wise adult just knows. you poorly educated kids nowadays need a source handed to you for every idea
Do you honestly know so little about the ragheads? Do you think Muslim women have free will or the right of choice, about anything?
Considering that
A) lots of Muslim women do not wear hijabs despite family wearing hijabs
B) lots of Muslim women do not wear hijabs but consider wearing hijabs in the future,
It’s pretty reasonable to say there is not a force that at all times forces them to wear a hijab. After all, if there was, there wouldn’t be Muslim women who don’t wear one with family that do nor would there be women who don’t wear one but consider doing so at some point in the future.
In both of those instances, there needs to be a factor of choice inherent to the individual to have chosen that given strategy.
Like, you do know so many Muslim women don’t wear them, right? Also, isn’t raghead a slur anyway?
in there homes yes, but in places where there is no custom for such hedware no, they should not wear it. Because they do not like bikini, unmarried sex and so on in there countries and people go to prison for it. There excuse religion. SO I will ask them to respect other cultures and not to wear them where its not expected them to be worn.
