    hahahaha yeah sure dude.

    Show us 'picture proof'.. or was it 'image proof'? hahaha

    Is that some kind of defense against being photographed?? I'm IMAGE PROOF!!

    You're hilarious.

    Let's do google images for all definitions in the world, who NEEDS dictionary anymore? We have google images and source-less information from wikipedia. Anything else is NON-SENSE!!

    I'm sooooo so sorry ATW. I'm just an undercover Muslim who despises women because I fight the banishment of their rights and have insane theories like using a dictionary to define a word. Who the hell do I think I am.

    I should be hateful and disrespectful towards religion, insist on removing rights from women under the guise of 'freedom' and use google images to define words.

    Crazy.

    ATW have you lost it? Is posting pictures of women in Burqa's getting you off (or you feel like you havn't gotten enough attention)? When folks think that they know better than the other, that's when problems arise. I'm anti-burqa 100%, but I respect the choice of those who wear it. Just like some people choose to smoke or get a tattoo on their face, each can be seen as either brainwashing and poor choices. BUT that's the great thing about it, its their own bloody choice.

    It is not, and even Mathloon has acknowledged as much.

    Will they claim in some cases that it is? Yeah. Google "Stockholm Syndrome".

    Don't resort to slander and name-calling please, it's not a nice look.

    I believe a much larger percentage of women want to wear it by choice than you are insinuating. I also believe the percentage who choose to wear it in Europe are much higher than those who want to wear it in Saudi for example.

    Tourists.. We don't discriminate. A very tiny percentage of Emirati women wear the burqa or niqab before the age of 50 or 60.

    My favorite thing about ATW is his timing with posting pics to try to piss others off. How can something be so full of fail and win at the same time?

    :grin:

    This guy should wear a burka over his ugly mug...actually, he probably has done that a lot, to conceal his identity and move around more easily.

    Yea actually I have met quite a few, who don't blame themselves, but they do feel uncomfortable with men leering and whistling at them, and for them its just more comfortable, they don't have to worry about covering up with pounds of make up, hair stregthening(which they often joke is a western version of a burqua in having to cover their natural selves as well, but they just don't apply the standard to themselves) and they can just be at ease. This is from their words, that said I know many muslims, considered religious, don't wear them bc the quranic interpretations are arguable and subjective on what needs to be covered, etc. and different translations vary it as well, but thats a different argumet.

    You know ATW is xenophobic when on one hands he attacks Muslims for being intolerant but then can turn around and vindicate France for being intolerant towards Muslims.

    Can't have it both ways.

    Except with regards to your positions over time.

    "Neo-Con persona" New Yorker -> "Wannabe liberal" Sweet Lou 4 2 - both with thousands of posts

    Common theme? Disingenuousness.

    It's not an all or nothing relationship. They can easily go outdoors without doing all of that and without wearing a burka.

    If you ask me, it's something they're rationalizing for whatever reason.
