It would be nice if people could quit shaming women for what they think they should say, do and wear, regardless of risks they would take or consequences they would bear. Also regardless of the extent of which the shamers are actually informed about what women do and do not do.
If only men had the courage of their more secure and elevated position in society to actually quit oppressing women, minorities, non-white people, children, etc.
How about it, fellas?
Don't hold your breath.
Hold it for what? I changed my mind about the hat; it looks silly.
Hold her breath waiting for confused men to figure out that you don't decide what feminism is. You don't decide what women fight for or speak out about. Your opinion of women and women's issues is only relevant in that it contributes one more drop to the sea of ignorant, knee-jerk, programmed misogyny that makes the world such a welcoming, cozy place for predators and abusers.
Is that the hat you're wearing today, wp? Did you successfully complete a course on "handling" feminist SPs or is this just part of your personality to adopt whatever attitudes are suggested to men by our diseased society?
Heck, I would just settle for men become a bit better informed.
I think you didn't read what I said.
The Feminists and Muslim feminists exercised their legal rights to protest against Trump. However why aren't they protesting the treatment of women in the Middle East who are forced to wear the Nijab and the Hijab. They are cultural which extend before the Koran which does not mention these. They can in fact be described as dress codes prescribed by men for women to obey. Women are free to wear what men tell them to wear but should not be forced to do so or not to do so.
I've lived and worked in Arab societies such as Qatar, Abu Dhabi, and Dubai and interacted with Sudanese corporations, and Egyptians, Palestinians, Lebanese and Iraqis so have a slight idea of how their societies work. You will see that when the husband and wives leave these countries they don't wear the hijab. I only saw one case of a woman keeping this on in several years
While I'm on about it, the Muslim women have been working hand in hand with the LBGTs against real and imagined ills, so will they also support LBGT and women's rights in the Middle East?? Oooh no perish the thought.
What is the symbol? A woman wearing clothes required by men with the US flag on it.
