Uhmm... What's with the violence? I think people have concerns, which this doesn't help with... Especially since you said you are a Muslim.
It would be nice to hear what the Muslim people in the forums (simmers) feel that the Hijab is, for them, personally. And, to hear from Muslim people if this actually is a religious item (and if men wear it- or why not, if they don't?).
There are many people who speak for others, and it is not always accurate... But, we have so many issues that really ought to be talked about. Those who said they don't support having something (clothing/religious item?) which is seen as an oppression of women- Do you support cheating spouses in your game (because lolz?), or do you support overtly sexualized clothing on women (there are some women who have experienced the oppression of that over-sexualization and disrespect).
LOL, I'm not being violent. It's just an emoji. ? ? I'm not gonna kill you all. Calm down. Sorry if it offended you. ?
I can't remember if it was in this thread or not, but I said I don't see the hijab as a religious clothing. Now, where I come from, we are not being oppressed to wear hijabs. It's actually a choice. ? But I cannot speak for other countries that are more strict.
Oh and also men don't wear hijabs. Hijabs are worn by women to "cover" themselves to "conserve" themselves.
"Oh and also men don't wear hijabs. Hijabs are worn by women to "cover" themselves to "conserve" themselves."
That's the problem. Why should women conserve themselves? Why shouldn't men conserve themselves? This is the pointing to the main problem.
That's why I want to flip it.
Why are you asking me this? I'm not God or the Prophet. Don't question people's religion. The only thing I know is that they do that cuz sometimes men tend to oversexualize women or stare at them (and they get a sin when they do), and that's why they make that rule. ?♀️
I wasn't asking you but asking in general, although you seem to be fine with it, sadly. I'm not, not even a bit. It's based on stereotypes and lies, by the way. Men have been socialized to act that way, they're not any lustier than women, really. I stare at hot people (I'm a woman). Some women are very visual, some men aren't. Religion built up these gender lies. Our society is still poisoned by this.
"they get a sin when they do" according to that religion, NOT a fact.
Asking in general, is it OK for women to "get sins" when they objectify men (or other women)? I suppose Islam assumes women don't. What a laugh! How sad. And this burden is on the women to protect men from this sinning. Wrong.
And I will always question people's religions every day.
ETA: I was also "asking" as a thought-exercise thing. We humans should think deeply about everything. Ponder and question WHY.
Hate speech right here. please educate yourself before posting anything that you dont know about. men and women in Islam have different awrah (body part they have to cover from opposite sex that are not related to them) Men also need to cover their entire belly button up to knee even to another men. if you think hijab is only for Islam then you're wrong. even virgin mary wore it.
Certainly no hate speech.
I didn't know women could wear crop tops with low-rise jeans in Islam, I guess that's something. Or must they cover that too? Cover as much as men and then some?
This sounds ancient to me, and almost trying to make men and women seem like aliens to each other, not one human race.
I don't care what Mary wore, if she existed, I don't care about her or her book. Her story isn't exactly feminist, anyway, so I don't see a defense there. I'm not pro-Christian or any theism.
Have you met any Muslims? Genuine question.
I have. Many of them in fact. I work with them, I live among them. Yes, some Muslims wear crop tops and short shorts, bikinis, and other such "revealing" clothing, especially in the summer. Some of them have been in plays that the school does that involves things like uhhhh woohoo to put it mildly. It's all very risque stuff.
Like any religion, there are some that ascribe to a strict adherence of the Quran, and others that are more lenient when it comes to things like clothing.
I think so. I don't really talk to people. "No peopling allowed." I read instead.
And I meant to say by suggestion of the Islamic teaching, are women not told to cover up more than men? For those who follow the more conservative ways, do they wear the belly tops? That is actually what I meant.
"Like any religion" ... don't assume I respect other religions. But yes, I was asking about the somewhat more strict adherence, at least ones that would make men cover their navels and knees.
