#Muslim Wear

[pinbones]

I've seen a few posts about women and pants now and many of them are very good, and not to nitpick those posts or downplay religious sexism or anything, but I have to emphasise:

Somebody who DOESN'T live in a controlling religious country/cult/family is also affected by sexism. We all know that, right? Secular parts of the first world also have opinions about how women dress, including when it comes to trousers, especially in childhood and in institutions like schools and the workplace

Me and many people my age (20s) remember being forced into skirts, punished and shamed by parents & teachers & peers & possibly then bosses about what we wear not being feminine enough, and it wasn't by deeply religious sects. Many updates to dress codes are very new and sexist views are still in place in many institutions. Normalised societal misogyny wants women (and people they want to treat as women) to dress femininely, down to what KIND of pants they're allowed to wear (compare a pink top and jeggings to mens jeans and tell me these two women are treated the same. Hating women in pantsuits is still a sexist office joke today, and even those outfits are feminine compared to male suits, which raise eyebrows when worn by women). The women I know who wear trousers regularly are literally otherwise feminine, and all wear dresses to events.

I know trousers have become much more normalised over the past few decades in secular society (yay!! the result of many many years of effort and lawbreaking) but let's not be absolute when we talk about the pants concept lol. Especially within a larger conversation about female/transmasc/intersex/transfem masculinity and social perceptions, especially in an age of rising fascism

France is banning the abaya, which is a loose-fitting dress worn by Muslim women (among other groups of women), in public schools. They claim the dress is an affront to French secularism even though it's not even a religious garment – it's a cultural garment that resembles pretty much any loose-fitting modest dress.

I can't possibly spell out for you how discriminatory and backward this is for a "modern, democratic" nation like France. Muslim women deserve more humane treatment and respect than this – being forced to undress more than they're comfortable with.

Because a lot of people are still not getting it: Wherever you draw the line between "good Atheism" or "bad Atheism," I PROMISE you, there are Jewish people who exist beyond it. There are people from all religious backgrounds that exist beyond it.

the next time i see a MAN criticizing a hijabi, or a muslim woman in general, on the way she should be dressing i am going to hit him with my car

[grecoromanyaoi]

regarding my post abt ppl using judaism to feel more oppressed/racialized (n opt out of whiteness/privilege) (n this is v much a general jewish thing, far from exclusive to a specific brand of converts) is how progressive/reform jews will pick n choose jewish traditions they like/follow (which is fine by itself) but "coincidentally" pick anything and everything that will make them seem more "visibly" jewish, and more than that, more racialized. its so so telling how a lot of progressive/reform jews (n its v much a white thing but i dont think its exclusive to white ppl) will choose to cover their hair in an obvious attempt to mimic hijabis, bc theyre more racialized. (annoying "neopagans" n xtians do it too but theyre not what the post is abt so). when married women do it its one thing n like wearing headscarves for fun is another thing as well, i used to do it too, but dont kid urself n us by pretending its some ~deep spiritual connection to judaism~. ur neither a woman nor married, why r u covering ur hair.

Hot take but I think Muslims who are queer should be allowed to be open in supposedly lgbt spaces about being Muslim and queer

[dilftesbiggestfan]

Can’t believe I have to say this but if you wanna make a female aphmau character Muslim and make her wear a hijab/abaya please do it properly, don’t be like other artists who make a character wear a hijab then make them show off their bodies and make them wear immodest clothing. It’s extremely offensive to Muslims and the religion itself, also offensive to Arabs and Middle Easterners. What’s the point of wearing a hijab if you’re not being modest? THINK SMARTY THINK!

You can’t draw her with a hijab then with her in a crop top and showing off her legs fuckass

(Also kinda unrelated but we need more Middle Eastern representation over here give me Syrian, Turkish, Saudi, Kurdish, Iraqi, etc.. characters)

“Let women wear what they want.”

Yeah until it’s something you don’t like. Until it shows just a little too much skin or not enough of it. Modest or not. Colorful or not. Short or not. None of it matters.

If you truly believe in women expressing themselves and having the right to where whatever they want, you have to realize that it also includes wearing things you don’t agree with.

hey. listen. youre allowed to wear the niqab. if you intend no disrespect, you are not being disrespectful. niqab is open to everyone.
