I agree, making the Burka compulsory would stop all these misogynistic gestures irrelevant so that one wouldn't be able to see or investigate the feminine attractivene ss. Good idea.

SparklyKid - // AH, your knowledge concerning, for whatever reason, of gay intimacy is superior to mine. //
There are galaxy-sized areas of knowledge of which I am ignorant (but that does not make me ignorant!) - and if someone challenges meabout something and I am in error, then I accept graciously.
Every day is a school day - particuarly on here.

So do I! Actually, I know a lass who worked in Dubai for a few years and she has a light, silk burka which she slung on in-between office and home & on shopping etc., no she's not a Muslim, she's half-Italian/half-English. I bet she'd lend it to me. It would be interesting to see how it feels and gauge the reactions. I'll mention it next time I see her - she does occasional work out there now, so has kept it.
Not these days woof, according to 'M'. One thing for tourists another for those who live there and don't occupy 'protected spaces. She lived there for 8 years and had to 'robe-up' as I said. She disrobed as soon as she was in the business offices, no probs. dealing with males face to face - (she's rather high-powered). She's just come home to live in Britain. She did, however work for an Egyptian firm, don't know if that has anything to do with it. Her mum did not have to don one when she visited. Next time she touches ground in the UK, I'll ask her about it.
The egyptian firm may well have something to do with it....the people I know don't live in a western enclave or any kind of protected space, their neighbours, and the children's schoolfriends are of mixed nationalities and faiths, athough they are VERY comfortably circumstanced and move in well travelled circles which I think tends to foster a more open minded attitude.
