They say Burqa is to protect a woman. Well, Burqa makes me horny, now what say you? This very fact should make all the Burqa lovers to forgo of their cover to have their sanctity preserved because after all, we have to do away with attires that cause sexual tension. If you tell me that Burqa is simply a matter of my preference, my face was burnt so I wish to hide it, or perhaps it makes me look gorgeous, I accept your decision to wear such attire. As a matter of fact, the constitution allows anyone to wear whatever he/she wishes and I am fine with that. But when you reason with me that covering every inch of your body somehow wards off the predators or diminishes an unwanted wondering eyes (Allah forbid), you are simply not familiar with male psyche.

*sarcasm* I really feel for the rapists in Saudi Arabia. When they select their victim, they have to pray the one that walks into their trap fulfill their desire.

Another scary thought that comes to mind is to imagine if everyone was to cover their face. What kind of society would that be where people will never get a chance to watch each others’ facial expression? Why not just go ahead and enshroud flowers, skies, seas and whatever that remotely gives me a tingling sensation down my pants with black sheet of misery “just in case.” A long time ago, I got into an argument with a Burqa-convert woman whose rational behind the veil was that it signals a “Muslim woman” walking down the street. I am wondering to myself, how about make a beautiful green flower in your hair a sign of a “Muslim woman” walking down the street? Why do you have to go rogue on everything. Sheesh.

A jury (and in the absence of a jury, the judge) is charged with resolving factual disputes based on the veracity of witness. The entire structure of our 1000 year old legal tradition is based on the right to confront witnesses and weigh their testimony using every tool and sense at one’s disposal. A voice behind a shroud is NOT a reasonable substitute.

Within Islam, women ARE basically walking vaginas licit for male penetration unless she is properly hidden away.

BOTH MUslim men and women are fixated on sexuality, and this is the basis for Muslimahs’ defence of covering along the lines “I want to be judged for what type of person I am, not for my looks. Therefore, I cover myself”.

In such a statement, the Muslimah fully sanctions and endorses the view that UNLESS she is covered, she can’t expect to be treated than anything but a piece of licit meat.

Thus, she is being deeply offensive to
A) all women who choose to dress whichever way they want, and YET demands to be treated as a person.
B) All males who are perfectly capable of seeing a beautiful (or ugly) woman and YET treat her as a person, rather than a piece of meat.
