[quote=Anonymous][quote=Muslima]Well, you're the one equating burqas to oppression.......Haven't you heard? Allah is enough for me :) As Muslim women, we have been liberated from this silent bondage. We don't need society's standard of beauty or fashion, to define our worth. We don't need to become just like men to be honored, and we don't need to wait for a prince to save or complete us. Our worth, our honor, our salvation, and our completion lie not in the slave. But, in the Lord of the slave. Praise be to Allah, the cherisher and sustainer of the worlds ~[/quote]

You don't get it... it's like for some of you people there are only bikinis and burqas and nothing in between.  Muslima, you are just as bad as the people on here who believe Muslim women are "brainwashed."  I don't dress to please people... I dress in practical, reasonably attractive clothes because I might as well.  I believe that God actually loves beauty- look at all the flowers, the animals, all the beautiful creation surrounding us.  I don't think it upsets God if I wear a dress with flowers on it that mimics his creation.  God doesn't care if your hair shows, he cares about your heart.

But since we're talking about it... Islam appears to be a highly particular religion.  Where in nature do we see that God has been so particular in his creation?  Look around you- the tremendous variety of trees, of flowers, animals, people.  God loves variety, and the idea that he came up with these incredibly specific rules for every aspect of existence strikes me personally as bizarre.[/quote]
