a muslim woman protesting the burka. in some countries, muslim women are raped and beaten for showing even their noses and mouths. in some places, they get their hands chopped off for showing their wrists, or looking at a man.
This is amazing, this is beyond amazing.
Damn. Brave.
This is likely the only time my blog will have nudity on it but I feel this is too important not to have on my blog. The female body is something beautiful. Harming a woman for the reasons listed above is beyond cruel and oppressive. It should never happen and I’m glad people are taking a stand against it.
I’d like to just quickly interject (not that anyone has said anything about this, but just in case someone decides to.) Women are not required to to wear an Abaya or a Burka, some are forced to because of their families and/or husbands, but according to their religion, it’s a choice.
