The Quran clearly states that women are evil and must cover their bodies lest they incite pious men to lust. Quran (24:31) - "And say to the believing women that they cast down their looks and guard their private parts and do not display their ornaments except what appears thereof, and let them wear their head-coverings over their bosoms, and not display their ornaments except to their husbands or their fathers, or the fathers of their husbands, or their sons, or the sons of their husbands, or their brothers, or their brothers' sons, or their sisters' sons, or their women, or those whom their right hands possess, or the male servants not having need (of women), or the children who have not attained knowledge of what is hidden of women; and let them not strike their feet so that what they hide of their ornaments may be known." The woman is not only supposed to cover herself, except with relatives, but to look down, so as to avoid making eye-contact with men.

lmao what we have here is a textbook case of racism, xenophobia, and Islamophobia. Go back to the spot under the bridge where you belong, educate yourself, and just go get a life. They're in the "Hints" aisle, in the "Hooray, you're about to get a life" shelf.

You, sir, are the one oppressing them by implying that they don't have the choice to cover up.

is it really oppression when some women CHOSE to cover themselves? You tell me.

What are you talking about?? Malala Yousafzai is one of the big symbols of feminism and she has a nobel price at the age of 19! I cannot stress more, please look further than your biased opninion! It's easy to throw in your best argument you have on your hands - "Muslim countries are oppressive towards women". For once do you know the rules and etickets of muslim men in those countries? And twice, why do emigrated women to a non-muslim country still wear their hijabs?

The hijab is NOT a symbol of oppression no more than the bikini is. Both can be used to oppress, but you are misunderstanding the symbol.

Another ignorant fool.

And isn't that important? The health of others?

Sorry most people don't see through it. When they hear islam their inner sjw is triggered. Ofcourse it's a great thing! I'll support Nike now because of this great gesture they probably knew of backlash but they still went for it. Good on Nike for going forward. Who cares about baised opnions of backward people.

:)

Yes,please do that in this forum.

EXACTLY! why can nobody understand this?

Thanks.That's what I tried to say!

And if woman wants to be submissive like Bible said we also should not interfere?

Thanks...

"a woman CHOOSES to be a muslim let's just respect her choice." Agreed, people are entitled to to their choices - Latin writer Lucretius in the 1st Century BC said “quod ali cibus est aliis fuat acre venenum” which translates as “what is food for one man may be bitter poison to others”.

Yeah true, we in modern society are proud of women because their fight for rights to have sex with men which their choose, and to wear clothes which their want. And for which kind rights she fights, to wear clothes which man in VII A.D. choosed for her.

Thank you. <3

And Who exactly is ISLAM? Basically men, right? So let me translate: If women in public do not wear enough clothes it is also their fault once they i.e. were raped or otherwisely attaced by men who can't controll themselves. That's really convincing.
