  • I have anecdotal experiences too: my sister is Muslim and was wearing hijab in France. Of her own will. My parents argued repeatedly AGAINST it because of all the problems she'd have (and she did have) in that glorious free country. But she wouldn't budge, because she didn't want a human to dictate to her what she could wear.

    In many places such dress code is more cultural than religious. From the religious point of view, yes women are to wear it however one cannot FORCE them to. In some places they do, but the scripture does not allow this.

    In secular countries people do not know the difference or don't even bother because it mostly affects non whites. Instead of tracking the cases where there is abuse and dealing with them accordingly, they just ban it wholesale across the board. It's like banning knives because some people use them violently.

  • I don't deny that there are occurrences where some girls are forced. What about the 95% others?

    You can't put forth a law punishing the majority for a "likely". What happened to the "Liberté Egalité Fraternité" which this liberticide law is obviously trampling?

    The population has been fed the islamophobic narrative long enough to have such laws pass without anybody thinking about how ridiculous they are (replace hijab/abaya with dreadlocks or other piece of clothing... What do other people care?). The divide is so deep and constantly maintained by the politicians who, since they find no real answers the actual problems plaguing the day to day life of citizen, prefer to turn them against each other: divide to better rule.

  • I've been using TST for many years now. One can read the title of the tab. It allows to have hundreds open, collapse them and keep them organised in a tree per topic (I can further organise them with Simple Tab .)

    I cannot fathom how people just keep clicking on all open tabs, where the only thing they can see is the icon, to find the right one if they have more than 10 open because the title is no longer visible.
