We should let people do whatever they want. Wanna wear a helmet all day? You bet. Wanna wear Burkha everywhere you go? Sure, I just wish it wasn’t a symbol of oppression. To me it’s the same as someone wearing a Swastika. Knock yourself out with whatever fits your mojo. Don’t expect me to show respect for it though and don’t tread on my rights to speak against it. We have a deal.
- hutzlibu 5y ago"Sure, I just wish it wasn’t a symbol of oppression." For me it is such a symbol, too. But there are women who say it means something different for them and they want to wear it out of their own free will. And I am not the one telling them what they have to think, because you know, that would be opression? edit to your edit: And the swastika is a perfect example, too. Because the swastika is thousands of years old and the Nazis are not and just occupied it. So someone who wears that symbol might do it for way other reasons, than because he likes the Nazis. (less likely in europe, though, but more likely in india or mongolia for example)
