      You are wrong. Most, I repeat, most women wear Islamic headscarfs because they choose to.

      Admittedly, I don't know as many Muslim women as you might, but I have known quite a few Muslim women (online) who have told me that they had married US-working men and moved abroad to avoid having to live in a strict society. Farhan, I am not attacking your religion, I am an atheist and I don't particularly think much of any of the existing world religions, but I strongly feel about women having to cover their faces with veils. Last month, we saw a young girl (maybe 16 or 17) who got into a bus with her mother and both of them were fully covered in a black material (I think that you call it the Purdah-Burkha, not sure) - and to be honest, it was a scary sight!

      Burqah is not amongh muslims only anyway..and I wonder why covering face is scary for yo?cos you can`t see their faces. A woman who cover herself would be more secure,will be lesser chance to get harrased then a woman who`s exposing herbody..fair enough..it happens and its the fact MyBlogs http://weblogs.com.pk/kadnan

        While you are right about the muslim women in non-islamic countries, for women who live in a theocracy like iran, wearing a burka is the obvious choice, considering that the other option is being punished publically.

          It has and still is being addressed in a big way. In more than 2 decades of living in India, I've never seen a lower-caste woman ill-treated in public (hard to tell what happens inside private households). So things are looking good. Evils like the caste system, purdah/burkah system etc should be banished. Not just in India, but everywhere!

                        If you are going to argue successfully, don't fall into the strawman trap. It may work against your opponent, as they are likely to be emotional. For the observers however, the strawman will not look too impressive. Since A.A.'s remark was clearly an ad hominem attack (unfounded or not), you should've defended yourself by saying "why are you attacking me, instead of my arguments?". Then you would definately have "won points" in the eyes of the observers, and you would also have made the opponent aware of his mistake, which gives you a psychological advantage. :) -- Pictures[^] from my Japan trip.

                          That indicates that there is a problem with men, right? So covering women is just healing the symptoms, instead of healing the disease. -- Pictures[^] from my Japan trip.

                                The real test will be how the Bangladesh government responds to these ultimatums. Posting additional security guards only, seems a bit defeatist. If theses pieces of human flotsam are threatening the lives of private citizens then immediate action should be taken.

                                    Hello Adnan, There's a difference between wearing clothes and putting a shawl around your face. I am not saying it's a bad thing if the person enjoys doing it. But there are women who do not want to wear the facial shawl. Which is why this specific Bangladeshi group says it'll kill such women. That, is simply not right. No woman should be told that she would die if she didn't wear the facial shawl. Nish p.s. Your name reminds me of that singer with the same first name, Adnan Sami, don't know if he's Indian or Pakistani :-)

                                      I wouldn't say disinterested... But yes, I'm an onlooker. I'm so swamped with work, I don't have the energy to engage any arguments. :sigh: -- Pictures[^] from my Japan trip.

                                        That indicates that there is a problem with men, right? So covering women is just healing the symptoms, instead of healing the disease. -- Pictures[^] from my Japan trip.

                                        I think the original idea was that men shouldn't see the hair of a woman. Apparently it was too tempting for them. I don't particularly like long haired women, so this logic beats me! :)

                                          Okay, let's say a partially interested onlooker then :-) The interested parties here would be Adnan and Kgaddy!
