Respect for a person does not come in the form of giving them utmost freedom to do whatever they wanted. To encourage what is best for them and to discourage what is harmful to them is the best form of respect for any one.
Are we talking about a child here? You think a fully grown adult needs you to tell them what's best for them, (merely because they're a woman)?
Not to mention that your examples were simply ludicrous.. not being allowed to have short hair, show their face, or dance..
C'mon Diamond, we weren't debating them strapping bombs to their chest and detonating themselves, but getting a haircut. Don't give me the "respect" crap over something as trivial as that.
"we're so respectful to our women".. lol yeah right.
Islam does nothing but ban what is degrading, dishonorable, and harmful to people
Such as haircuts. Lol.
Take for the example the issue of abortion. Many Muslim women do not want to do this and certainly do not need to. Many Muslim women would not object to a law banning this practice.
Slightly different to getting a haircut, but then abortion is a long debate in itself. As men we really cannot answer for women.
In Islamic culture, it is dishonorable to cut your hair past a certain length to where a woman resembles a man.
Why? And since when did a short haired woman resemble a man? She still has boobs no? Do your women have facial hair?
Is it also forbidden for a man to have long hair?
Wearing jeans is okay, however wearing tight revealing jeans as many women wear in the West is completely against Islam for obvious reasons.
Why? You don't appreciate the female form?
Most Muslim women care little for what anyone else would say about how they live. If they choose to live this way. Who are you to tell them how to live?
Umm.. lol, I'm doing no such thing..
you are, your country is.. and that's what I'm debating against.
The problem of dancing with a member of the opposite sex is the fact that it promotes sexuality between two individuals who should not have such feelings.
It does? It's impossible for a man and woman to be together without them having to bonk each other?
No, dancing with opposite sex is against islam for male or female
I suppose if it prevents there being more muslims in the world, I'm all for it.
I don't hate the West at all.
Your earlier statements imply otherwise.
What I hate is the West's meddling in the Muslim world and Western genocide against Muslims.
Understandable. Just like I hate muslims messing with my country. Can you ask them all to leave please, or should I do as they would do and chop their heads off?
In England, I have also seen how Asian, African, and Arab Muslims are discriminated daily and made to live from fear of parties like the British Nationalists.
Oh please. Our country is far too nice when you actually open your eyes. A bunch of muslims free to burn the English flag and yet if I went to Iraq and burnt their flags, would I still have a head? We give you housing, money, education
while allowing you to remain dressed in the rags that you call clothes. We don't force you to pledge allegiances or adopt our culture and nobody ever forced any of you to come here in the first place.
So you all come over here in your thousands and then have the blatant fucking audacity to insult my country.
The people who have felt pain have every right to disagree with these policies.
And they have every right to uhh... fuck off home. They weren't forced to come here were they? Who gave them a home because they're being opressed in their own country and had to escape? If they don't like the way our country works.. leave.
The West has a long way to go before it is a free society and recently the trend is going toward authoritarianism, in the opposite direction.
Only because there's a bunch of muslims going round blowing up innocent women and children.
In short, if your society is free, why do you have a problem that people different than you come here?
I don't. What I have problem with is us giving you everything, and the best you can do is then turn around and insult my country. A thank you would have sufficed. Instead all we get are bombs and burnt flags.
The Middle East has people from all areas of the world, traders, merchants, and we don't discriminate.
No, you just behead.
The fact that there are Muslims in the West is a blessing for you
No it isn't.
Muslims are among the kindest and most sincere people you will ever meet.
Utter bollocks.
I encourage all of you to go out to meet the mosque leaders and you will see smiles and handshakes
And around 16lb of explosive device under his shirt.
Please, you're making me vomit.
you too can also experience the love and caring nature of Islam.
I probably wont experience it, because since July I no longer catch trains.
