[quote=Anonymous]I am Muslim, and I do not wear hijab. My mother does not wear hijab. My father never encouraged me to wear hijab. In fact, he was very against it. There is a classist element in the Muslim world. The Arab, East Asian, and African elites (with their fancy American educations and Euro vacations) look down on hijab as a working class symbol. I run away from any man who says he wants me to wear hijab. I know many Muslim women who did not wear one at all when single, but started wearing it after marriage and a first kid at the request of a husband. It makes me sad because I know they miss dressing up or down the way they used to. [/quote]
