You're a guy, I take it.

There are worse things than being left alone by random construction workers, I assure you.

Ofcourse there are worse things, and I do realise that as a guy, I don't tend to know all of what happens.

Nevertheless, the burqa as a symbol is despicable enough not to tolerate it.

Well, that would depend. It was pretty awful weather today, I'ld allow a see through raincoat too, but just for now.

And again, everyone is free to wear what they want, within the laws of decency and in lots of places also not a burqa. Which isn't a problem imo.

This is stupid. In our societies, we don't force people to smile at each other in the street, ot to wear a uniform when they go to the shop. People don't have to integrate as long as they work, pay their taxes, and follow the law. As long as they do that, they can wear a burka, or a fake beard, or a clown costume, who cares?

I understand that for many people the idea seems strange. I understand the "women being forced to wear one" argument.

But if the women decides to wear it, even if she makes that choice for cultural reasons that seem alien to us, then as long as it doesn't pose a threat to soiciety, I can't see how it concers any of us. So you can't see her face? So what? They are still human, can talk, can communicate, and if they can't do any of these, the problem is more profound than the burka.

Once again, it's treating the symptoms of a disease, instead of the causes.

The day I start wearing a clown costume and a fake beard when I walk down the street, I won't be expecting the government to pass laws to ban people clown costumes and fake beards. And if they do, then I will feel victimised.

Though I will be a happy Chuck-Norris-clown-look-alike victimised, which is better than an angry Muslim victimised, granted.
