What would you think about some African tribes woman coming to this country and walking around bare breasted?

Do you think it would be prudent for her to walk around that way in a crowd? at a political rally? in a crowd after an NBA championship game?

In our culture it is considered inappropriate for women to bear their breasts. In Egypt it is considered inappropriate for women to show any part of their chests or bodies.

Even if an African woman were walking around the average American crowd or political rally wearing nothing but her grass skirt, I seriously doubt that anybody would assault her; and heck, at sports event victories, women are always flashing their bosoms, so I suspect even that wouldn’t bring on a mass group assault by crazed fans.

Also, women in Egypt dressed quite normally until fairly recently. The full-body cover-up started to come back about 10 years ago, but many middle-class Egpytian women in the cities (and this happened in Cairo) still wear exactly the same clothing as Western women of their age and show the same amount of uncovered body.

The fact that this crowd reacted this way shows them for what they are, Islamist savages. And she did nothing to provoke it or “deserve” it in any way.
