Should burqas (muslim women's wear) be banned? Why or why not?

[Anonymous]

Yes

No

[ChrisMaster69]

A lot of this is more down to families than religion, or rather their interpretation of it all.

Certain countries do enforce it, which is where it becomes wrong, as they are removing religious freedom within their own religion.

Iran is a good example of how forcing the issue results in a push back from women in the country.

For me, the lack of choice is reminiscent of the Saudi ‘women not allowed to drive’ thing.

If I travel around Europe, you will see all variations of head wear. When I lived in the Birmingham area, all of the below could be seen walking around on a Saturday. For me Democracy, equality, basic rights are when changes occur, especially equality. If I see all the below in Birmingham, then it’s not being enforced by a country, it’s by the family.

[goaded]

Is it really being enforced by the family, or just a personal choice based on a cultural norm?

[ChrisMaster69]

@goaded when I lived near Birmingham and was out in Leicester, Birmingham etc, a lot was family driven expectation, obviously some will want to some will not.

We had girls working for us in Birmingham office who would pretty much get changed for going home.

[goaded]

Yeah, that's not great. On the other hand, there were plenty of Christian girls who would get changed after they left the house on a night out.

[ChrisMaster69]

@goaded yeah tbh girls are girls, they want to have freedom to do as everyone else is doing, this goes back generations, 1920’s, etc

[MartianBuddy]

Wouldn't that be religious discrimination? Tons of people wear crosses, would people be happy if that happened? Being forced to wear one is wrong in my opinion, but the government should not ban them.

[Asker]

You clearly don't know a thing or two about how women are forced to wear it because of the ones who gate keep us and tell you all that it's our choice to wear it. You probably live in some west country which gives you all the freedom in the world. I understand

[MartianBuddy]

I literally said being forced to wear one is wrong. You asked if I thought they should be banned, which implies government banning garb that is associated with religious beliefs. Over here (and for the record I'm amaerican) we have the US constitution. The constitution lays out how the government can interact with its citizens. This matter would fall under the first ammendment, which reads in part: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. According to the US constitution (where I live, and where you live does shape your thoughts on things like this. Sorry if my western understanding is flawed). If you want to have a discussion about how Islam is inherently sexist or how burqas are anti women then go right ahead. But when you ask me if I want the government to get involved with the enforcement of laws about religion then my stance is firm. I don't want them to get involved at all. All that would do is let the door open so they can start telling people what they can and can't believe, and I don't want to live like that.

[Asker]

Alright. Thanks for your opinion. It should not be banned. Maybe educating will do. But who will provide?

[MartianBuddy]

That's where I don't have an answer unfortunately. It does break my heart that women in the middle east and in worse off positions have to live like that. But yeah, educating people will probably have to be the way.

[chey1016]

I feel like it should be a choice actually. For instance, i had a close muslim friend growing up, we were in our teens (16 and 17 at the time) and I noticed her sister always wore her hajib when she went anywhere but my friend only wore hers to the mosque. So i asked, trying my best not to sound very ignorant, why she didn’t wears hers outside and she said he father lets them choose whether or not to wear it and she chooses not to. And I thought that was the most empowering thing i heard in my life and from that day on I don’t think womans muslim gear should be enforced but rather a choice.

[Asker]

Do you know what's more empowering? When such people who like to be referred to as the gate keepers of women who wear burqas are not seen as gate keepers.
Muslim head gear isn't a choice for most, although thats what such gate keepers wants you privileged and lucky people to believe.

[chey1016]

My question is, why do men get a choice? Why are women forced into silence?

[Asker]

Since centuries it's been like that. Because of women who are in privileged countries, who assume that we all wear burqas and other things because of our choice when women pretfy much do not have a choice. You can see other comments in this section, they say women should wear it because it's their choice and even after i explained it that it's not the case, they say it's their choice. Like do the ones who has freedom to choose lose Brain cells or something?

[chey1016]

Those are the brain dead privileged (most likely white) Americans or the “gate keepers” who comment stuff like that. Im a black American, we have more sense and better understanding of the oppressed, anyways i know for a fact that some countries have very strict rules in place against woman doing anything that a basic human should have rights to, like something as normal as driving! Its sad to see my beautiful sisters go through that! It genuinely hurts to know that woman have voices that can’t be heard because it can put their life at risk, I am all for woman having choices on how they chose to cover their bodies. The people in this comment section are very ignorant and an embarrassment to the human race!

[Asker]

Thank you so much for understanding. I have seen a certain youtube channel called ninja mommy, she is a muslim and is in Canada, it's women like her who gatekeeps us as her main job is to show those "white" women that burqa is a choice for women. Such gatekeepers are the reason why women in hard line islamic countries suffer without even being heard. The privileged and ignorant women in this comment section shows why we are where we are. We don't have a voice. We don't have a choice. And then privileged white women who has all the freedom in this world tells us that it's our choice due to which we are born in hard line islamic countries.

[chey1016]

The same white woman telling islamic woman they have choices are the same white woman who say police brutality among black people in America doesn’t exist! Some white woman are very ignorant and very uneducated and it’s embarrassing! And woman who act as gatekeepers do not deserve to be called woman, they are honestly just a man’s puppet and nothing more, the youtuber has a choice because she moved to a country that gave her a choice, now it’d be different if moved to an islamic country and didn’t have a choice. Men are literally the root of all the worlds problems and our religions expect us to “worship” and look to them to be our “leaders” mean while they can’t even carry out simple basic human task without woman.

[Asker]

Yeah, and they have the audacity to tell us that it's us who are wrong. Women are the ones who are against us women the most. Such people acts as gatekeepers and encourages others to silence our voices, the irony is they themselves live in privileged and democratic countries and says "we are not opressed its our choice, the ones who are crying that theyre opressed do so because they want to be reckless and sleep with men", like wpuld you be on youtube if you were in some of the hard line islamic countries, you have all the freedom in the world because you're in a democratic countries like Canada or USA. Most women can only dream about having such freedom. Pretty sure that she would never prefer to be in any of the hard line islamic countries that she's gatekeeping. And they also like to generalise the girls who don't wish to wear headgears as the ones who wants to be reckless and sleep with men, when all we want is freedom.

[1988fido]

you confusing 2 aspects into 1
1- women in islam are not forced to wear it, but they are asked to by god. no one in the entire word can come and tell you the opposite: in islam there is no such a thing as force hijab/burqa on women and who do that is wrong.
hell being a Muslim you can force it. so how about smaller things than the religion itself. its literally written in the quran there is no forcing in the religion etc..
you can advice and ask but never force or you are literally going against gods command which is not to force.

aspect #2:
2- Muslims believe that god ask women to wear hijab (and hijban is not burqa) you dont have to wear a mask, it is different. also again point #1 still valid, no one have the right to force it. its god to the individual. so every individual have understood the quran and heard that message knows that god saying should wear have to wear it if they want to follow the teachings of islam.

3- men have to do other things which is not exactly like woman wearing hijab or burqa. but in general again no one have the right to force it.
the things you force in islam are simple and clearly stated in quran that have to be done even with force can't remember examples.

4- as for the example you saying of one sister wearing it and other is not, simple one is doing better than the other from an islamic perspective. and if a woman not wearing hijab doesn't mean she is not a muslim and doesn't mean she is a bad muslim that judge is not in anyone hands , god is the one who judge and decides who is good or better etc.. and not us humans.
as for some idiots thinks if you dont do one thing then you might aswel dont do any of the good things

[1988fido]

correction:

being a muslims you Can NOT * force it.
it was a typo

[Asker]

@chey1016
I've been talking to you about the gatekeepers, see there's an example in this thread itself of such a male gate keeper who would love to tel everyone that women aren't forced

[chey1016]

That is exactly why ignored him because there are countries that force it upon woman but to him its not forcing its a choice, just plain ignorant

[Asker]

Thanks for understanding. They are doing everything to silence the voices. And they're successful to an extent because the comments here speak a lot.

[UCrayCray]

Women who have dressed like that in public for their entire adult life will probably be incredibly uncomfortable being forced to show their bodies in the new style of clothing. Like suddenly being told that all beaches are mandatory nude.
People not used to exposing their bodies that way would be very uncomfortable being forced to do so.
Let women dress as they choose. Perhaps these women, given the choice, will take them off on their own timeline.

[Asker]

There are huge movements going on right now by women in Islamic countries to get their right to choose what to wear, theyre against all sort of coverings. They're being forced into it. It's amazing that you choose to give a deaf ear to the ones who are against it, while giving a heads up to the ones who's been shamed into wearing it. Do you know for a fact that the ones who choose not to wear are being isolated in muslim dominated areas and they don't even have such an option in islamic countries!!!

[UCrayCray]

Are you saying that because some women are against it, nobody should get to make the choice for themselves?
Which part shows that I “give a deaf ear” to those who are against the burqas?
Did you actually read what I wrote?

[Asker]

I did read, did you?
"Some women are against it"? Well, most are against it, they're made to wear it since childhood so they have no choice, reminding you about a proverb "birds born in a cage think flying is an illness", likewise, they're programmed like that. If wearing burqa or hijab (any covering at all) was a choice then why is not wearing burqa or hijab (any covering at all) a choice? (Its definitely not a choice in islamic countries and other Muslim dominated areas).

[UCrayCray]

I didn’t say it was currently a choice, I said it should be.
You think it’s fair to tell women who have been forced to wear a burqa her whole life that it too bad if she feels uncomfortable in anything else?
You don’t appear to be advocating for women to make their own choice in clothing. You seem to want to still tell them what they can and can’t wear, you just want to change the list to something you like better.
I support women making their own choices. 100%
I don’t think you or anybody else should tell them what to wear.

[Asker]

And you're clearly not advocating for women when you're literally out here supporting the burqas which were made by men to stop women from having any rights. Where are you supporting women to make their own choices when you're advocating for something as regressive as burqas which were made by men to oppress women?

[UCrayCray]

Explain to me how telling a woman she can’t wear something is supporting her freedom to make her own choices.

[Asker]

Why don't you answer my question first?

[UCrayCray]

I’m not advocating for the burqa, so I can’t tell you why I am. Do you understand that? Good.
Moving on….
Please explain how telling women what they can’t wear something is supporting their freedom of choice.

[Asker]

You're not advocating for burqa , wow, okay. . Then the next sentence, they should be allowed to wear burqa (which was made compulsory by men who think women shouldn't have any rights). Do you understand or would you still play dumb?
Telling women and letting them know that burqa was invented to opress women would do, instead of supporting burqa like a literal 🤡, it would be of help to millions of women who are often shamed into wearing one. One part of the world, women are trying to break free from the regressive shit that unfortunately they've been born into while the other part of the world, 🤡s in the form of women thinks women are making their own fucking choice to wear burqas. Do you even fucking know how many women don't wanna wear that shit? Do you even knkw that theyre forced into it , no way, in your little bubble instead of standing against regressive practices you look up to the so called flag bearers who lives in countries like USA who make you 🤡s believe that women who are stuck under sharia are doing so "because of their choice"? This excuse of "choice" is what pushes women to black holes which has no escape route and women like you are the reason for it. Only if we had a choice.

[UCrayCray]

Upon contemplation, I think I might see your point. I suspect you are from, or may have family living in, a place where covering up is mandatory. I understand that, given the choice in places like this doesn’t stop the men in their lives from forcing them to still wear these types of clothing. I can understand that it may be necessary to outright ban them if you want to see women finally be free of this oppressive clothing.
However, being from the west, a law like that would be just as oppressive to us, because we are already allowed to make our own clothing choices.
I’m the end, I support women making their own choices. I hope women all over the world get that freedom.

[Asker]

I knew you live in the west, you guys are clearly ignorant about what your counterparts are going through in islamic countries. But thanks for seeing the point.
"However being from the west a law like that would be just as oppressive to us"- this honestly doesn't make sense, you are someone who has the complete freedom to make your own choices, while women in countries like mine cannot do anything without the permission of a man and we are just not supposed to make our own choices. So how would such a law (which you have nothing to do with because you're definitely not wearing headwear and most probably has never worn one in uour life) affect you?
It gives freedom for so many women. How does it snatch away your freedom when you're living in a country in the west?

[De_La_BakedBeans]

What other countries decide to do is up to them, I don't think my countries should get involved with it. On that note, I don't think they should or would be banned in the places that I live. But I think they should at least have them lift up their face mask at airports, banks, etc. to show their identity. And they should have a private area where they can do this, rather than forcing them to do in out in public, where they may feel uncomfortable.
To completely ban these would be a violation of their religious rights.

[Asker]

Yes good.

[De_La_BakedBeans]

Yay, I have been approved of...

[Kaytiee]

Nope, not at all. People talk about bombs being hidden under burqas but please, just admit you are racist/anti-religion/migration. Is it possible to hide them? Yes. It's also possible to hide a bomb under a white tee, not all bombs are huge 1800s looking things, anyone could do it, and others have done.
Should we ban white guys in trench coats from going to school now? Or should we just ignore the school shootings and look at the colored people for answers, to blame. There are more white supremacist bombings, school shooter bombings that are done by white people than there are women in burqas.

[aarnasen]

I would never advocate wearing one of those BUT its no one's business to tell other women what they can and can't wear. Men are allowed to cover their faces in public, so why on earth shouldn't women be allowed to do the same thing?

[Asker]

So you're literally supporting a regressive practice which were made by men to opress women! No wonder why we are not improving. And what is this "allowed to cover the faces"? If it was as easy as that, why are women not allowed to venture out without covering their faces in islamic countries and Muslim dominated areas?

[aarnasen]

You intentionally skipped the part where I said "I would never advocate wearing one of those" and I can't help but wonder why you're bringing up new topics into the conversation? Forcing women to remove clothes is as barbaric as forcing them to wear one, whether that location is France or Iran.

[aarnasen]

You talk about the ills of regressive practice while advocating for yet another regressive practice.

[Asker]

Nonsense, why can't you read someone's reply before talking absolute nonsense? Let me break it down into simple sentences so that you may be able to comprehend it.
Who made this whole burqa shit? Men!
Who made it compulsory for women to wear it? Men!
Who role out rules that women should be wearing it wherever they go? Men!
Who shame women into wearing burqas? Men!
Why should women wear burqa? Because of fitna (temptation) , Men can't control themselves so women should be covered in order to help men not to feel tempted.
Yet self proclaimed women's rights activists like you would support burqa. As for your case, I expect you to come up with more fallacious statements that makes no sense.

[Tamera952]

I’m gonna go ahead and say yeah probably it should be banned. The problem is it boils down to choice. If you want to wear a Burka, so be it — if you want to be in a dangerous cult like Islam, so be it — The vast majority of women in the Islamic world do not get a choice, and that’s where the problem lies. It is imposed on them. If they wore it as part of their free will, it wouldn’t be a problem — but almost never are they given a choice.
Period, FULL STOP.

[Asker]

you're on point This is what I have been saying

[Tamera952]

Thank you. You are also on point! When you get down to it, it’s actually quite a simple concept, isn’t it?
I wish it was different for those being oppressed, & like to think change is coming — but not fast enough I’m afraid.

[purplepoppy]

There should be a ban on men forcing women to wear them but not the item itself. That opens doors for people to ban absorts of clothing they don't approve of.

[Asker]

I agree to your point. But how will we ban men from forcing women? Do you not think its impossible? Centuries they've been doing it

[Xoxocutekitty]

FYI Picture is of a niqab. Burqa has open face. Hijab is just the hair/neck covering.

Let women wear clothes without assigning personality characteristics.

[Asker]

That was a mistake that I did. I should have added head wear instead of naming it.
And I see that you don't understand much and you beliebe women choose to wear it when you clearly havw no idea about the situation of women in such countries. And there are many people who gatekeeps us while living in your countries and tell you all that " it's our choice"when it's not the case. The more I look at this comment section, the more I feel disgusted at your thought processes that you have the audacity to just believe that it's with choice that women wear it.

[SlightlyEccentric]

The irony of this is the people who say wearing it is a choice, when muslim women are not given a choice. We've seen countless times how Muslim women are treated by Muslim men when they dare to defy them.

[jshm2]

When you start banning on preference. It allows for anything to be banned along same lines.

Want to ban yellow clothes as Hitler used yellow stars to mark Jews? It could be made legally possible...

[Aurora1010]

No, they have as much right of freedom to wear them as other girls have a right to wear skimpy clothing. The only reason they should be asked to remove it is for identification.

[BipBipLeddus]

It would directly interfere with a common religious practice that isn't harming anyone, therefore infringing on their right to freely practice their religion.

So, no.

[Buntyp]

No, because bans are just another form of compulsion--which is like saying, NO, no, it's not about your freedom. It's about making you do what WE want you to do.

[sawno]

Why banning facial wear is a terrible idea!

[AdithyaR]

It's their religion. I don't think we should have a say in that.

[AdithyaR]

I'm not from the west, I'm from India.

[AdithyaR]

And about choice, it's better to move towards removing the mandate of wearing it. I'm in college and I have a friend who wear a burqua to school sometimes, she wears it out of choice cause some days she will wear normal clothes and certain days she wears her burqua out of respect for her religion. She doesn't feel oppressed by it.
It's an oppression when they're all forced to wear it. So the option isn't banning it altogether. It's to give them a choice to wear it or not

[Asker]

And it's a muslim country? I think no.
So how are you thinking that such a country would force women to wear it? I'm talking about the women in countries which are islamic and who are forced, where many people, 1000s are leaving islam everyday but they can't speak out , it's more like a secret movement happening , they want freedom. you're saying to "give them a choice", do you think us women who are stuck in such countries will ever have a choice? If we have a choice, you'd be seeing women wearing all beautiful clothes in our countries also, but you can't see anyone like that. I know girls in free countries like to gatekeep us women and tell you all that we all wear head wears because of choice, but it's not the case.

[Asker]

I'm glad you're removing my comments now. 🙂

[AdithyaR]

I know muslim ruled countries force women to wear them, hence why I said the focus should be on religious liberation. Giving people the freedom to practice their religion how they see fit. That way, if you don't want to wear a burqua but still practice your religion, you can, however if someone does want to wear it, they can.
Banning it altogether won't help, it never does.

[AdithyaR]

Who's removing your comments? I'm not, I don't think you can do that on this app.

[Asker]

Okay I agree to your point.

[AdithyaR]

Cool

[Asker]

No I wasn't talking to you actually, many people didn't like the fact that I shared this question here on this app. Theyre removing my comments and I won't be surprised if this question will also be removed.

[AdithyaR]

Oh I see

[Still-alive]

@AdithyaR im removing any comment that calls anyone names. :)

[Asker]

What name did I call you?

[Asker]

I know you're here removing my comment because I removed your copy pasted text, stop lying.

[Still-alive]

nothing... yet. but you've used it towards other people here. :)

[Asker]

Then why are you copy pasting text? Do you own this app or something? Dont you think misusing your rights and removing comments just because you or your friend don't like is not good? you have also copy and pasted a comment from your friend (which contained name calling) more than 6 or 7 times? And then you're removing my comnents

[Asker]

Now waiting for you to remove my above comment.

[Still-alive]

because you're calling people names. simple. i kept the ones you didn't call anyone names as you can see :)

[Asker]

Okay. Nice. Now please answer my question. "Then why are you copy pasting text? Do you own this app or something? Dont you think misusing your rights and removing comments just because you or your friend don't like is not good? you have also copy and pasted a comment from your friend (which contained name calling) more than 6 or 7 times? "

[Still-alive]

i literally have the text on a text file right here. she didn't call anyone names...

[Asker]

why were you copy pasting it? I know why you are here and why you're removing my replies.

[Asker]

Being biased isn't really a good character to possess, especially when you control an app which is being used by a lot of people.

[Still-alive]

because its shitty to remove replies just because you don't like what they have to say. if they called you names thats something else but thats not what she did.

[Still-alive]

its not being biased its just pushing your crappy tactics back in your face

[Asker]

Well, that's what they did. You know what is shitty? Your attitude and how angry you are because I called out something regressive. "its not being biased its just pushing your crappy tactics back in your face" no its more like, omg i can't tolerate her talking bad about my religion so I have to take off her replies and push my narrative no matter how hard it is and how crappy my responses and attitude is.. You need to calm down.

[Still-alive]

haha im not at all angry. cute

[Asker]

Really? Your responses and copy pasting says otherwise. 🙄

[Still-alive]

nope. i literally have a smile on my face watching you struggle to get a 'sick burn' on me and others here. pretty funny.

[Asker]

And I hope that smile would remain when you come to know about the reality that people are leaving the religion that you're trying to protect. And its funny to watch how Muslims lose their shit when someone talks about leaving the religion and about freedom. Like it's something that noone should taste, according to you.

[MCheetah]

I don't believe in banning anything that's just clothing, but they do make me cringe at the entire cult of Islam whenever I see those or hijabs. Ugh!

[MAC1983]

@MCheetah there is no entire cult of Islam. There are only a minority of them who make women wear Burkas.

Try to think of it on how different Jewish religions are for you to get a better idea.

Oh, and the Hijab is just a veil, it has nothing to do with a burka. The phylosophy behind both is VERY - sorry for the allcaps - different.

[dumbassmcgee]

@MAC1983 Why are you so offended for everyone? Can you get off your high horse ever?

[MAC1983]

If the commenter had any problems with what I wrote he would have wrote so. He did not.

I was not offended, and I simply provided additional information.

[Hellraiser1984]

It's a cultural and religious thing. Don't ever tell someone that those things are wrong. It's not for someone outside those two things to judge.

[Asker]

Can a woman inside those two things speak about it? Or you just think that we women should allow men here to opress us and keep us devoid of freedom?

[Hellraiser1984]

No you should get a voice. But it's not my religion and so I have no place to say anything about it. As a human being everyone should have the same rights. But that's out of my control at least in another country. You deserve to talk about it.

[Asker]

Thanks for actually trying to understand and thanks for not blindly believing the gatekeepers.

[Hellraiser1984]

You're welcome.

[Valso]

Yes. The state shouldn't make it easier for them to rob a bank just because they're from a different culture. Besides, the only way to undo brainwashing is to brainwash them again into obeying the law and stop being slaves to their men.

[sheikalana]

it should not! why doest this even bother people I don’t get it. it’s part of a culture and religion. respect that!

[goaded]

Should short skirts be banned? Should not wearing a headscarf be banned? Should holding hands be banned?

Why would you want to be like those countries?

[NamerOfStars]

I'm not big on repression, or the twisted ideas of modesty that they represent, but you don't fix repression by banning its symbols.

[Daniela1982]

A male terrorist could hide a dozen RPG's under one of those tents. I can't go into my bank with a face mask or hoodie. Why can they?

[1988fido]

by that logic we should ban bags too, why not? because a male terrorist could hide dozen of bombs in a bag. oh weight also should ban pants with pockets because rapist can hide syringes to attack their victims. oh weight then i can keep going into the silly logic u are using and reach a ban to all clothes hhhhhhhhhhh we should all walk naked

[Daniela1982]

@1988fido Why, would you be sad you couldn't wear yours? *rolls eyes*

[1988fido]

am not sad am laughing at your logic how it doesn't make sense for any adult to have that way of thinking. if you at least said should be banned coz its oppression or anti freedom bla bla anything like that i could understand ur point but saying coz you can hide stuff under it XD common seriously?

[Daniela1982]

@1988fido No, it is because there could be male terrorists using disguises, under which they could be using bomb vests to get inside a big crowd. I was also being a bit facetious. Too bad you can't tell the difference. Now go bury a bone or something.

[UdontNeedtoknow]

While i despise burkas. I also believe in free of speech and freedom of religion. For me the Bill of Rights in the Constitution of the United States of America is my religion in many ways.

[Asker]

You know what's a joke? you assuming that women living in islamic countries have a choice or freedom of speech, we have freedom of religion as long as we follow Islam. Otherwise we are dead. You're lucky you were born in a free country but that's not the case for everyone.

[dumbassmcgee]

@Asker, wait a minute, if you got caught doing what you are doing might they hang you?

[Asker]

We have something called VPN, and yeah we are not supposed to talk against Islam here. But we still talk about it in message apps like telegram haha we can't always remain stupid right

[dumbassmcgee]

Well, I don't know what to tell ya, I wouldn't complain about living here if it weren't for libtards. Frankly, that's what our worries are, at least us that are patriotic and care about not becoming commie scum.

[Asker]

I can't understand what you're saying but if you support women having choice, thank you. But if you live in a country that gives you freedom you are lucky. Many people in my country dreams about being in your country.

[UdontNeedtoknow]

As a operation Iraqi Freedom veteran i know about that all to well... I can only reference my own country when it comes to how i truly feel.. In America, if a woman hates the burka. She can stop wearing and leave her community if there is a backlash.

[UdontNeedtoknow]

@dumbassmcgee I could not agree more.

[UdontNeedtoknow]

That is why we fight for our freedoms. In America there is a old saying, "Freedom isn't Free". You have to fight for your God given natural rights in order to keep them.

@UdontNeedtoknow You are awesome. I feel guilty for not doing what you did. Serving my country. It's refreshing to see someone back me up here. I don't want to bring up Biden and Afghanistan, but it's hard not to. Lefties are in a serious sorts of lost. The nagging question I have is why this woman has such fluent English. Always have to question everything.

[Asker]

What makes you think I shouldn't be fluent in English? Most of us know at least to type English if not speak, although I do not have a good accent, some of my friends speak in American accent, and they have never been to the USA , they watch American shows etc to become fluent.

[dumbassmcgee]

Forgive me, it's a compliment. Virtual Private Network saves you while you sit where? All sorts of questions. It's weird.

[Asker]

It's like we can use it to take apps like telegram YouTube netflix etc when these apps are banned by our government.

[dumbassmcgee]

Duh. Bruh. I'm the last one to say "bruh."

[Asker]

what? 🤔

[dumbassmcgee]

Fake.

[Asker]

okay

[dumbassmcgee]

You are fake as 3 dollar bill. Queer as a douche bag. Comprehende?

[Asker]

yes I understand you're talking about yourself. Thanks.

[dumbassmcgee]

You don't think we see a libtard acting? What? Like a libtard?

[dumbassmcgee]

That is the conundrum of the left. Wool over the eyes? Fuck off.

[Asker]

you're just mental. What is Even a libtard, I don't care about your American politics, go talk about it somewhere. You must be a trump supporter who is racist towards everyone he's famous for being racist do you know that?

[dumbassmcgee]

Ahhh, worked out the libtard of the woodwork did we? Biden has 47 years of die hard racism, we can smell you a hoe commie scum the minute we see it. Trump did more for minorities in Presidential history.

[Asker]

I don't know but I don't care about Biden too. I mean, I don't live in the us so why I care about trump or Biden 🤣🤣

[dumbassmcgee]

Apparently, you want to "live" here. That should be paramount. You want your Mommy, yeah, so does your dad's brother.

[dumbassmcgee]

Islam, yeah something tells me it's okay to have daughter diddlers too.

[dumbassmcgee]

Oh but what are your fathers and uncles to do? Living in the US? They can't molest boys? Oh my lord. WAAHhhh WAAAhhhh.

[Asker]

Ok then please ask your government to not give us visas lets see if they will agree with it 😂 many muslims, ex Muslims and atheists are in the usa, you're just unaware.

[dumbassmcgee]

We are aware, and we don't like molesters. You get dead quick.

[Asker]

Then why is trump still alive 😂

[dumbassmcgee]

Trump grabs em by the pussy in a room full of gold diggers. Not in a shower with his daughter. Locker room talk it be.

[dumbassmcgee]

BOOOM shaka laka.

[Asker]

khafesho haroomzade

[dumbassmcgee]

They can wear that where dress code calls for something else, why can't everyone show up in pajamas everywhere? Who knows.

[Flower7]

No they shouldn’t. I don’t see any problem with them.

[Babygirl_S]

Yes it's a toxic religion and sometimes terrorists use burqas to hide their identity.

[SlothySlob]

Should the Kippah be banned? Should colanders be banned since pastafarians can wear them?

[KostasKouvalis]

Absolutely. There's nothing in the Quran mandating that women cover their face. It's oppressive. It's sexist. And it's a security risk.

[fonduegirl]

It shouldn't be banned per se, they should just have individual freedom to wear or discard it

[skyeee_]

no it shouldn't be banned, but instead the rule should be like: muslim women should be able to wear what they want

[grega239]

In non muslim countries, absolutely.

They should be forced to integrate to the native culture to show respect or go back if they're so proud of theirs

[_alice_]

Where is the freedom?
You can wear bikini but Muslim womans can't wear burqa!

Where is the freedom, I ask you young lady.

[Anonymous]

there is no problem with hijab.

as for burqa. well anything that covers your face whether for religious purposes or not should be banned.

criminals may use those if they realize they can get away with it.

[AkshiJanjua]

The ironic thing is in Afghanistan women are fighting to not wear a burqa but in India women are fighting to wear it.
One is a genuine problem other is created because Indians love controversy

[ragooo8]

No but they should be removed at airports and banks

[AndrésC64]

Not in general, no. But they should be required to be removed for identification purposes.

[EnglishEuropean]

Yes, both them and the Klu Klux Klan. If you have to hide you face you must be doing something illegal.

[zagor]

No, as long as the woman doesn't feel pressured to wear one.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Yes. Poor women having to wear that b. s. is humiliating and ridiculous. Looks insane.

[SlightlyEccentric]

>Looks insane

That's because it is

[kellytheman]

They should be banned some of those women are beautiful and in seems degrading.

[notwoke]

they should go live in a muslim country and not be a concern of ours

[Iron_Man]

Especially when they’re dressed like that that’s a little bit too creepy

[Fuentes]

I think its stupid but people can wear what they want

[Anonymous]

no, should not. people have the right to dress however they want. as a Muslim, I don't wear a burqa, I don't wear a hijab. and I respect people covering up or walking around naked/half-naked.

[Asker]

As a muslim you have a choice , what about the millions of women who don't have a choice? But are opressed by men who thinks theyre superior.

[Zygum]

Countries who are anti Islam, they already ban, other doesn't have problem

[RichyRich887]

Its culture. Its not based on islam. Ask any muslim person..

[SpiderManFan2002]

Actually there is a minority opinion among Islamic scholars that the burqa or niqab is mandatory. This is a minority opinion but none the less still valid.

[Apulu_3]

I'm Muslim and it is based on Religion. It is mandatory for every Muslim girl to wear that but nowadays most don't. Only in totally Islamic countries like Turkey or Pakistan women you will get to see more women wearing that. In countries with less Muslims like India you will rarely see a Muslim women wearing burqa.

[SpiderManFan2002]

@Apulu_3 It’s not mandatory for every Muslim woman as the majority opinion is that covering the face is not mandatory and most follow this opinion.

[Apulu_3]

@SpiderManFan2002 in the holy book Quran it is mentioned that it should be followed strictly however nowadays most don't follow it.

[SpiderManFan2002]

@Apulu_3 Actually the niqab or burqa actually isn’t mentioned anywhere in the Quran, but the opinion that the niqab is mandatory and the opinion that the niqab isn’t mandatory are both valid

[Apulu_3]

@SpiderManFan2002 Yeah

[Santhasiss]

It's one's will freedom of choice to dress but it should not to be forced by others

[FreyaRed]

Yes, together with their retarded religion.

[strateguy632]

for safety ban except in home

[boggboss]

No I don't feel it should be banned

[AmeerX]

It should be people's choice and not forced

[msc545]

NO. People can dress as they want to.

[Hotboy_booblover]

I m sure u r from India

[Asker]

I'm from a way more regressive country than that.

[Hotboy_booblover]

Pak?

[petiteinjapan]

yeah, can't see whats in them

[Anonymous]

Yes, face coverings should be banned in public.

[Dargil]

Especially mandated masks.

[HimaniS]

It should be banned

[Anonymous]

Yes it should be banned on this planet

[Waldoe]

Religeous Freedom...

[moonpie89]

No. ...
