13. i don't see where it's a tough issue
any one self-hating enough to think that their face is obscene and needs to be hidden has big, big problems and should not be enabled

for security reasons certainly no one should be meeting w. blair or other high officials in a veil

the veil is about saying a woman's face is obscene, you can't be a part-time feminist, either you reject this or you think it's OK for women of "other" cultures to have their faces deemed obscene and placed in a veil

i'm tired of woman-hating being cloaked under the guise of "multi-culturalism"

our culture in the south used to embrace slavery and lynching, when a culture is evil and when it propagates hate, it must be stopped no matter how loud it screams "but GAWD sed so!"

we humor hate against women if some mullah or some preacher says so and i'm damn sick of it

england is supposed to be a secular country, they should act like it
