As long as both groups of people are following their choice then it’s all good.
But Islam often doesn't let women think on their own, their husbands or fathers are to think and choose for them. That isn't always the case, but often is.
You're free to wear whatever you want, but you will get murdered by your family if you don't wear what they tell you to wear.
You are reffering to "freedom of choice". It's a good thing. <3
Other women could be wearing whatever they wanted to, the others even if not forced, are taught since small girls to dress like that.
Lots of ankles in that picture…
you saw anklebone ??
i mean i can, but its gonna hurt
forget cultural differences, and imagine yourself out there on a 35c day, and tell me which one is better.
Flowing robes 100%, literally designed for being in the heat and sun. 35C isn’t even that bad, it’s hotter in Texas.
I was going to say, I'm pro-bikini but used to live in Texas and wore longer sleeves to keep the sun off my skin because it kept me cooler doing that than if I wore a short sleeve shirt.
sigh Truth.
but Arab clothing is literally designed for the Sahara desert
Sahara desert
I assume you meant Arabian desert?
Whoops, though North African clothing is very similar and those are definitely designed for the Sahara.
It's actually all one big desert. The Arabian Desert is just the Sahara Desert extended over Arabia (and neighboring lands).
Sun tan lotion doesn't cut it for me, and I can go from white to red in a matter of minutes. So yeah, loose flowing clothes seem nice (not a fan of burqas esthetically but I never tried one so maybe they're comfy?)
Well, this should be an interesting comments section.
If you think these people are stupid remember that there's people wearing suits and ties in summer
That's even more stupid.
Source: it's me. I'm the stupid.
If you think these people are stupid, wait 20 years and see who has more skin cancer.
Covid seemed to change workplace attire in my company forever. I used to wear a coat and tie to meetings and events.... I'm now wearing a polo shirt and stretchy chinos with "dress shoes" that are basically sneakers.
I've often thought that we can squarely blame Western Europe for the proliferation of suits being the normal business wear. It makes sense for them because have you visited the UK in summer? Or northern the northern half of the continent? It's downright cold sometimes. In the middle of summer. It makes sense for them to wear all that crap all the time. I do wish we weren't influenced so heavily by that to the point that we don't have any real alternatives when it comes to formal and business attire.
But what about the tie? I personally believe that one is to blame on fat rich people who used to hide their bellies
Peak cultural differences
We live in a society
Girls 'miring

I didn’t even see the women on the right at first 🫣

Apartheid /s
How could South Africa have been an apartheid state when my chef, my maid, and my cab driver were all black?
