I'm a Christian woman and I cover my head in public and prayer. It's in the New Testament. The covering of a woman's head is an old religious tradition for several religions.

"He also ordered us to cover our body well to avoid unnecessary attention from man" What if your "God" just made man stronger so they kept their parts in their pants so woman can live free? Or does this "God" favors man above woman? Piece of clothing or not, visiting hours of a church or no visiting at all, if you truly believe in a certain "God" then this entity knows your loyalty and beliefs without having to justify yourself in front of other people.

Georgette Duncan Gravert : why then aren't you covering your head on your profile picture ? You're here in public ...

And sitting on your knees and clasping your hands in prayer isn't the sole definition of following a religion either. No singular tradition is the entirety of a religion.

"OUR head"? Who's "our"? Muslims? Women? I'm confused by this statement.

what? :"D how come?? In Jew,Christianity & Islam a scarf is needed. it's considered as modesty & following this religion..so every religious woman has to wear the scarf *Hijab* from those 3 religions as God asked to..u should read more about religion..visit a Mosque or a church..just to learn more about such important thing as Religion..& don't think that this scarf on ur head is shameful or anything..it has very strong benefits :)

Her point is, God didnt ask us to just put a piece of cloth over our head, He also ordered us to cover our body well to avoid unnecessary attention from man.

Why ?

YAY IGNORANT PEOPLE!

We only say things like this when its something new and not used to. closed environments where the only thought is a muslim woman must wear black from head to toe (which the quran never stated) it only said to cover everything apart from face and hands, didn't specify a color.

Only parts exposed are her face and hands. No leg or ankle skin. She is fine.

how is she not following her religion? pls elaborate.

Unfortunately, the tights on the women wearing the boots would consider immodest in some quarters, but if the women want to wear them that's their business. As for the women wearing the pants as part of their coords because they don't feel comfortable wearing tights also their business, though I might make a suggestion that if they wish they can look up etsy and find someone to make pants for them in a lolita style fashion.

Actually, that's not true-- a hijab CAN refer to a garment that covers the body, but most often refers to a garment that covers the head and neck. You're thinking of a niqab, not quite a burka (Covers everything but the eyes and hands, sometimes even the eyes with a transparent veil) but it covers everything but the face and hands.

Curtis Allen, the fashion has nothing to do with the novel. The fashion was named after Saint Dolores. Lolita is a nickname for Dolores. The fashion was named after this saint because she started out as a fashionable, high society woman and then became a nun, both of which were inspirations for early Gothic Lolita fashion.

Kylie, i'm a muslim girl living in a muslim country and i wear hijab, so i think i know what hijab is.^^ And you can check the hadith -prophet muhammad's words-

Ole - I recommend reading the book "Lolita" by Nabokov, then reconsider your argument that Moussa needs checking because "Lolita" = little girl but ≠ sexuality.

I didn't view the style as sexual, more childhood reminiscing. She is expressing herself yet still dressing respectfully. Fair play to her she looks cute.

as you can see, each girl is wearing a dress but is wearing a form of trousers or leggings under it to make it very very modest! If they wore the dress with nothing covering their legs I would understand your anger but they are dressed modestly, so shhhh

Lolita= little girl. Moussa says that symbolizes sexuality...The police should check him out

Mind your own business.....

Wait so everyone these days wearing 80s style hair, 60s style peter pan dresses or 90s style platform shoes is wearing a costume? How about these military and nautical trends? Are they army and navy costumes? If I'm wearing a women's suit to work, is it a "man costume", rather than office fashion? I'm not going to go up to a bride in her traditional white marshmallow and say "hey, beautiful wedding costume". It's fashion. Especially considering I'm pretty sure women in the Victorian times didn't wear dresses like that, with candy prints and cakes all over them and frilly heart-shaped handbags. If they were wearing a full-on historically accurate replica of a Victorian outfit from head to toe I'd be inclined to say they're walking a fine line between costume and fashion, but they're not. And for many, there's a whole array of language, ettiquette and more that comes with wearing the clothes. It's a fashion subculture inspired by the Victorian era, not a costume.

It's a fashion. Even in Paris (the epicenter of fashion) refers to it as such. It is highly offensive for you to refer to it as such. Cosplay is a costume, not lolita.

Read the book. Lolita IS about pedophilia!

This comment is hidden. Click here to view.

That is because in Japan, the legal age of consent is 14 still, and pedephilia is still present, just they are more careful there because they don't get a second chance like here.

Most of us lolitas are. ^^; its an expensive fashion and being an adult with a job makes it easier xD. But it's a fun fashion for sure!

Lowest REPORTED.

MammaG youre actually r******d

Lolita is a story about a pedophile.

Unfortunately PandaHero, he might be referring to stones as in stoning, hopefully he's not
