[quote=Anonymous]I'm a feminist and I don't agree with dictating to women what they can and cannot wear. The images from France of the (male) police telling women to take off their burkinis are chilling... simply chilling. That said, I deeply resent what I see as a patriarchal impulse to have women be covered while men do not have to cover. THAT said, when a PP says, "And as a society, it is important that we figure out what parts of an ideology are acceptable and what are not".... are you suggesting that it would ever be OK for us, "as a society" to decide that head coverings are not acceptable? How do you enforce that? If I, an atheist, wear a scarf on my head because It's cold, or humid, it is OK for the police to come disrobe me??? Do we want to live in a society where law enforcement decides what's acceptable garb for women, and what isn't? Because that reminds me of something.... oh yeah... the TALIBAN.[/quote]
