Apparently it is. Sad!!
Fluff her back. The poor imbecile hasn't got long to live.

You lie.
You didn't read them, did you!
I think you're protesting too much and your analogy comparing wearing a burqa to violence on a population is silly. Who are you to tell people in this or other countries what to wear? Where are all your posts condemning the men who punished this woman for opposing the hijab?
So you say. FGM is incompatible with American mores and law.
Type the words: I condemn Muslims who practice FGM.
No, she hasn’t given up her feminist card and you as a man can’t take it away from her. People misunderstand what it means to be a feminist. It’s amusing to watch men mansplain it to a woman.
Twist and turn, Duchess.
We have you.
False equivalence. Jack isn't a virtue-signaling faux feminista like Y O U.
Yes it is incompatible. And if people are found practicing it, they should be prosecuted and jailed. Why are you ignoring the fact that Muslims aren't the only practitioners? The alarming rise of female genital mutilation in America No religious texts require FGM. Yet some cultures and sects believe the practice makes for better wives by making girls more acceptable in their communities, thus "improving their eligibility for marriage. The practice aims to reduce a woman's libido to ensure premarital virginity and marital fidelity, and can be associated with being "feminine," "modest," "clean" and "beautiful." It's practiced in households at all educational levels and all social classes and occurs among many religious groups, including Muslims, Christians and animists. The origins of the practice are unclear, with historians citing evidence of it in Egyptian mummies and in the fifth century BC. In 13 African countries, more than half of women aged 15 to 49 have undergone the procedure
I agree that burqa v. violence on a population is false equivalence and I comment you for recognizing it.

Au contraire, Duke. The fact that you turned this thread about the burqa into a discussion of FGM shows that Y O U are the one who was losing the original argument.
hahaha ... boy are you missing the point!
Me (Jack), I'm not telling ANYBODY what to wear. See the difference?
Christie seems to have a Motto of "I got mine, fuck everybody else".
As the article explains "Iranian woman 'sentenced to 20 years in prison' for removing headscarf in protest" should be pretty CLEAR that 'voluntary dress' is NOT permissible in Iran (or other parts of the Middle East). Most people (not just Progressives, Feminists, or Libertarians) would support the woman. Christie's response is "How is my life affected by a woman in Iran?" She's basically saying "Hey, I got my chocolate bon bons, my favorite soap opera on TV, and a TV Dinner in the refrigerator, fuck that bitch in Iran". So ... I'm not sure Christie would be considered a 'Feminist' unless the only criteria is having a vagina?
No, she, like myself, do not condone forcing women to wear the burka, hajib, etc., but at the same time, we respect a woman’s right to wear the burqa, hajib, etc. if it is her choice. The governments of Denmark and France are as wrong as the Saudi government on this issue. Women deserve the right of choice.Christie seems to have a Motto of "I got mine, fuck everybody else".

You're being evasive Jack. It's a sign your argument is standing on shaky ground. And your ad homs don't help your case. I support women everywhere wearing what they please, when they please and where they please.
I condemn men for thinking they have any say-so in a woman's clothing decisions. I condemn these Iranians for punishing a woman who is standing up for her right to wear what she wants, where she wants.
Twisting words again, I see.
Your evasions are transparent and ineffective. We have you.
She gets the point, Jack, She's slimy and evasive as an eel.
We have her, and she knows it.
