[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You should think twice about wearing the scarf to cover your hair.  I am not a Muslim, and I used to think of it as an accessory.  I became friends with a Muslim woman who would cover her hair, young and foreign born but got along well with Americans.  Over time, I learned that she was so controlled by her husband.  There was the scarf, she had to wear very baggy clothes, she had to call him if she were going out to lunch with others, he wouldn't let her drive out of state by herself, and other things.  And if you met him you would never guess about all the little and big things he controlled.  They seemed normal except she wore the scarf.

There are decent guys that are Muslim, but they are also very influenced by their families and they get social pressure to go with what the family does.[/quote]
The fact that you used to think of it as an accessory tells me all I need to know about your education.

Gee well you know, I am friends with a Muslim woman who covers her face and hair, has five children, doesn't drive and her husband eats out of her hand and her family worships her.  She doesn't give two shits what non-Muslims think about her. If you told her she was controlled, she'd laugh in your face.[/quote]

What a sad life to force upon a woman.[/quote]
What a sad life to live with such a limited imagination that says everyone who doesn't live like you must be forced.[/quote]
