You asked our opinion. I think you look fabulous in a Burqa ( maybe long hijab? I thought burqa hides the face as well ( Afghanistan) - and it is great that you respect the local custom.
But I still think it is oppressing women to have to hide their body so men are not aroused. That is the reason behind it.
I lived in a very conservative Turkish neighborhood (people from Anatolia) in Berlin for years - and that is what I was told by the women. If men wore traditional clothing as well - ok. But why only women?
Why can’t Arab men live with women as equals?? Don’t tell me they are. I feel super uncomfortable in Arab cultures. Now I am old a d ugly so it is ok. But when I traveled alone in Egypt in my mid twenties (1982) it was a disaster. I had black hair then, wore respectful clothing and still was harassed constantly. I never went back to an Islamic country after that. Well, we have enough of them in Germany - so I don’t have to. Absolutely no mingling and respecting western culture. Constant attacks right now with knives and cars. Germany pays millions to shelter refugees ( 1.5 million Syrians in 2015) - it is a big problem. Sorry, this is what I think.
Thank you my dear for your comment. that's make perfect sense to me but in short i'm not agreed. I also lived in a Muslim countries for year and year and I didn't feel this disrespect, sorry.
Always a pleasure to read your newsletter. Congratulations on being married to Brant for 5 years. I have known him a little longer when he did two podcasts on my cremation art and cannabis for seniors. I will read your book during my summer vacation. Chao Darling.
