Middle-Eastern women need to have more confidence, and then the rest of the world would know what’s hiding underneath their fucking oppressive hijab: gorgeous skin containing a woman dying to get away from her spiteful culture 

This is going to come as a shock to you, so I hope you’re sitting down.
Are you sitting down?
There are women who like wearing hijab, okay? There are women who enjoy wearing it. There are women who choose to put it on, despite what people like you have to say about it.
Just as a woman can choose to show her skin, she can choose to cover it. She can choose to hide her gorgeous skin just as another woman can choose to show it.
And how do you know, tell me, how do you know that these women are ‘dying to get away from their spiteful culture’? How do you know anything about their confidence? You’re trying to speak for and police the bodies of millions of women, and it’s ridiculous. Please sit down somewhere.

^Flawless.

Fuck you, OP.

Excellently said, yourunlikelyhero. 
I don’t see how the thousands of hijabis in Western ‘non-oppressed’ countries don’t obviously show that modesty is very often a choice. Ditto the spirited protests of women told to remove their coverings. And those who are forced? Who are any of us to say that they are being too weak, meek, and oppressed? How easy it can be to look down on others as needing to be saved…
Surprise: thinking you know what is better for an individual woman than she herself? Not empowerment. Not feminism. Not freedom.

Why do we so often forget about intersex people? Don’t be ignorant. There are more than two sexes. And more than two genders.

I don’t know what the biggest irony is…that there are literally HUNDREDS of languages indigenous to that land, or that America has no official language.
