Pretecting myself is part of my culture I guess. I hope if you went you'd take a body gaurd.
Bowing down to dangerous men is a bad principle to live by.

I don't see wearing a hajib as bowing down to a dangerous man I would think of it (had I the reason to go to an Islamic state) as making sure I wasn't seen as a target. Just as if I went clubbing ever again I wouldn't be wearing a belt for a skirt becasue it gives the wrong impression, sends out the wrong signal.

I can't recall reading of a specific case, but I'm not surprised.
Oh there are lots. Mainly of hostages and one story about a whole religous group facing exctiction;

That wouldn't be protecting myself now would it?

Originally posted by yo its meBelt for skirt is illegal, though it shouldn't be. Scantily clad ladies do exist here. The signals they are sending are not 'wrong'. These women want to be sexy and to be looked at. That does not mean they are sending out signals to get raped. Unfortunately there is trash out there - like most Muslim, Armenian, Arab and African men I've heard discuss the issue - who don't live with honor and decency but think women deserve to be raped if they don't wear that ridiculous black sack over their heads.

I don't like those men and would hurt them if they messed with any sexy lady of my acquaintance without her consent.

Originally posted by AThousandYoungI wonder what the actual rape stats are in places like you mentioned as opposed to a western place like America.

When I say 'belt' by the way I mean a really really short skirt.
