Interesting take on the hijab. I do personally believe that modesty has real value to a society however I don't think forcing women to wear it is liberating.

Okay, So, the only way to really see if Islamic precepts are valid and up-hold womens dignity is to use this as a way to not treat women like sex objects; only the embarrassed and the ugly would agree with the thought of it. I am very familiar with the Persian community; and only ignorant dumb frack Arabs force this up anyones a$$ and say it feels good. So lets have Western Women wear this vestige of slavery as a fashion statement and see where it gets them.

Make the males wear the same thing then, if it’s so fair and liberating. Bet that wouldn’t go over so well though.

What a load of crap from a typical Leftard. The hijab - like the burka - is the sign of slavery for women. These instruments of oppression should be banned in the USA. If the Leftards don’t like it then they can always be shipped to Saudi Arabia and live in that hot and oppressive country.

Forcing one to wear it is sick.....but when I have a bad hair day, and am too lazy to take a bath and get some decent clothes on, such a garment would suit me temporarily...
Perhaps the women are forced to wear it because they refuse to bath or dress decently and never wash their hair. The perfect covering......for muslim men ashamed muslim women..

Modesty does have value. The hijab, however, has no place here. Period.

I suspect we might could rid the planet of I-slam simply by providing every woman of marriageable age in the slammite world with a 9mm semiauto pistol and 100 rounds of ammo. Total cost would be around 70B USD.

I’ve seen this line of reasoning before. By draping women in tents, you make them all “equal” in the eyes of men. Of course, you also make them totally devoid of individuality—in short, you strip them of their femininity and turn them into annonymous entities that are shapeless and interchangable. Feminists these days are so twisted, I wouldn’t be surprised to see them embrace it. If nothing else, its another way to tear down our “oppressive” Western culture—and replace it with one that is downright hostile to women.

He added that the findings showed that men's desire for women was part of evolution. Wow, that's simply amazing if not groundbreaking.

Creeping Shar’ia anyone?
No. Modesty is a choice; the burka is a political, total personhood control statement, tidied up by political correctness in the name of a ‘faith’ that isn’t a faith, so much a lifestyle. How about the Muslim women who DON’T want to wear the veil? Where is their choice? Do they get to ‘walk away.’
No.
If an Amish woman chooses to leave her neat little bonnet at home and go ‘english’ she really doesn’t have to look over her shoulder, for the rest of her days, that a Fatwa has been placed upon her for ‘dishonoring’ the males in her family.
Accepting any little parcel of Shar’ia is accepting all of it.
