over flashing your skin?
you know what you have Alhamdulillah and have the confidence to use your brain to attract intelligent men.
do you not feel sorry for the non-Muslim women who are looked at as mere objects of self-gratification by lecherous men?

I am not muslim but I have great respect for that point of view. There are many objections I could make as well, but I think that its great to be modest about your body and that you feel that attraction has more to do with intellect.

I agree on this
Women should not be sexual toys for men, when Islam asks ladies to dress appropriately, it is all about saving them from sex animals.
It is great to know that Islam identified woman as humans 1400 hundreds years ago, and gave them their rights in all the fields. Islam did that when other's described women as "snakes" or "devils".
Women rights have been announced by UN less than 100 years ago. Islam did this ways before them.
In all religions, women are asked to were appropriate clothes, it is not only Islam. But Islam asks this for their own sake
Goodluck

Yes, AlhumduAllah. I am glad from this. It's not always true that these men ignore us, but we have been taught by Allah to respect ourselves and we know we are priceless, not to be eye candy for some sex crazed man. My husband appreciates my beauty, but what he loves is my modesty and my mind. I can have an intelligent conversation with him and anyone else, not get what I want in life with my legs and chest.

That was a practice done during the 7th century where men were like savages. In today's context, its really optional. Just dress appropriately, no need to be flashy or anything. You don't really have to cover it all up. Lack of vitamin D, its not healthy.
From what you say, it seems that only muslim men look at women as mere objects of self gratification if they don't fully cover up. If that the case, I assure you that you are wrong.

im a muslimah now but i was a model b4 i converted..... the hijab is what attracted me to Islam b/ selling your body... even if it is only with looks.... is degrading and unsatisfying to a woman with any kind of intellect or integrity.
***so i yes i do feel sorry for the women who feel they are empowering themselves, when truly they are objectifying themselves
asalamwalaikum

THINK ABOUT IT:
Dress Code for Believers*
[24:30] Tell the believing men that they shall subdue their eyes (and not stare at the women), and to maintain their chastity. This is purer for them. GOD is fully Cognizant of everything they do.
[24:31] And tell the believing women to subdue their eyes, and maintain their chastity. They shall not reveal any parts of their bodies, except that which is necessary. They shall cover their chests, and shall not relax this code in the presence of other than their husbands, their fathers, the fathers of their husbands, their sons, the sons of their husbands, their brothers, the sons of their brothers, the sons of their sisters, other women, the male servants or employees whose sexual drive has been nullified, or the children who have not reached puberty. They shall not strike their feet when they walk in order to shake and reveal certain details of their bodies. All of you shall repent to GOD, O you believers, that you may succeed.
------------------------------...
*24:30-31 Dressing modestly, therefore, is a trait of the believing men and women. The minimum requirements for a woman's dress is to lengthen her garment (33:59) and to cover her chest. Tyrannical Arab traditions have given a false impression that a woman must be covered from head to toe; such is not a Quranic or Islamic dress.
Encourage Marriage to Discourage Immorality
[24:32] You shall encourage those of you who are single to get married. They may marry the righteous among your male and female servants, if they are poor. GOD will enrich them from His grace. GOD is Bounteous, Knower.
[24:33] Those who cannot afford to get married shall maintain morality until GOD provides for them from His grace. Those among your servants who wish to be freed in order to marry, you shall grant them their wish, once you realize that they are honest. And give them from GOD's money that He has bestowed upon you. You shall not force your girls to commit prostitution, seeking the materials of this world, if they wish to be chaste. If anyone forces them, then GOD, seeing that they are forced, is Forgiver, Merciful.
[24:34] GOD have revealed to you clarifying revelations, and examples from the past generations, and an enlightenment for the righteous.

dont you feel sorry that you havent the fredom to dress like men and be treating with the same respect men get .
and how can you say intellegent men and muslim in the same sentence. and you are right i dont only find it unattractive but insulting that you are forced not to show your face, if i wanted to say something to you i might as well talk to a wall, cause i cant get and expression from a wall either
lastly its sad that your religion is so dominating and savage. you say "use you brain" but that would require the lack of a religion that tell you never to use that brain, sad
