The bs line seems to be
To protect their modesty- to force people (especially boys/men) to judge them by their character and intelligence rather than looks/body
However this is total horsepoop as anyone covering up is judged ten times more by this look as a faceless thing with no identity, personality, assumeb dumb and underedcuated as seen as nothing moe then property to be used for sex and bringing up kids with no life or persoanlity of its own.
Note the word it as you cant tell if its human, animal, male, female anything.
If 8 woemn walk down the street far from not being looked at the one in the burka gets stared at for being the freak with no face or individuality or personality.
Where as the other girls are seen as just human. With clear individiulaity, persaonlaity, likely a name, and you can tell what they are into from dress, and hair style (just like guys)
As for sexaul elements... sure just like guys but people dont only see you as boobs. they may notice t

notice those firsat as most obvious then want to get to know the rest so would be more likly to go over chat and find out about said brain and mid too.
But next time would recongnise this person by face. Whilst seen one burka seen them all.
You cant teel if a burka is happy, sad, excited as no face.
You wont get to know them as a person as its just relelant just like if guys went artound in those scarey IRA style balaclavas
So much of communiciation is in the faceial expression and how you project yourself look wise ie hippy, goth, wild, tame conservative.
So as said where do these people think just as face and body is covered up people will see your mind.
They dont, those who have persoanliaty and identy are far more seen as a mind with their energy, knowledge and passion

Or if you want to talk about god . Why not aphrodite goddess of love so you need to make love... publically to worship her or you go to hell.

im not about to read your entire argument, but ...
If you believe a woman should be able to wear what she wants, then let her cover her body if she wants to!!
the quran states that a woman should cover her body, like her hair, her legs, her curves, so that she gains respect and averts the eyes of men. Dont talk about "self-restraint" for men because scientifically, a mans lust for a woman is twice that of a womans lust towars men. And just because you can control yourself, it doesnt mean every other guy could. ask your male friends.
Which one would you respect more, anyway? a modestly dressed woman, or a girl wearing hotpants and a low cut top with double d's popping out?
The "niqab" is nothing islamic at all. Not only is it unneccesary, It deprives a woman of her identity. because that "niqab" is a way for men to oppress women, you see it as a part of Saudi Arabian culture. Nowhere in the quran does it state to do this, so dont bring muslims into this.
Yes, we're called "muslims." where the hell did you come up with the word "islamist?"

Well, Pluto (good choice of a name, after a planet that's in the dark), I am practically at a loss for words after that illiterate tirade. I am not Muslim (Islamist, in your words), but if I knew you were in my country, I would be wearing the heaviest burka ever made! I was so stunned by your ignorance about this issue that I looked up a couple of other Questions you've fouled with your contributions, and I'm sincerely suprised that you haven't been blocked by this website. I wouldn't be surprised if you name is on one of those website that let the public know if sexual offenders live in their neighbourhoods.
Well, compliments aside, here's my view of hijab. The burka as a completely covering garment is not particularly part of Islamic teachings, it is a cultural expression like wearing blue jeans or sarongs. Islam does ask women to wear hijab, which simply means clothing that is not revealing. Depending on your ethnic culture, that will mean different things. It could mean a long dress or wearing slacks. It could mean wearing a head scarf or keeping long hair. It basically means that a woman should dress in a way so that her appearance is not a "come on" to men who see her. Judging from the things you write, you think of women as sexual animals. If a woman is wise, and respects herself as a special person created by God, she will not let herself become part of that fantasy game. She can look attractive and pretty, but not by showing parts of her body, or even the shape of her body which are her own business. A woman owns her own body, and modest dress and behavior is the sign to the world that she respects herself and demands respect. I have a Muslim friend who is an American married to an Iranian. She lived in Iran for several years, and said she came to appreciate the long covering they wear there. She liked being able to go around anonymously on the street and not be bothered by men. When I visited there, I saw an interesting sight. A young woman, maybe 18 or 19, was passing by, holding her long robe around her, under her chin (they don't cover the face). The wind was blowing strong and blew aside her robe. Underneath, she was dressed just like teenaged girls here - long-sleeved T shirt, jeans, and Nikes. Women and girls at home aren't covered in a sack, even in a fundamentalist country like Iran. Did you know that when Muslim women make the Hajj (the pilgrimage to Mecca), they do not veil their faces? Everyone making the Hajj has to dress in a sort of uniform, so that all people are alike, like one family. Just think how those Burka girls would feel if they and their families believed showing their faces was wrong?
Wearing a total covering may offend you, and I am sure that some women don't care for it, but why are you so fired up about it? What makes you so threatened? Judge women by their characters when you get to know them, not by how they look at first glance. And don't judge a religion by the fact that you can't ogle their women!

Actually all ppl are initially judged by their appearance. If you want people to recognize that you have money you wear designer lables, if you want ppl to recognize that you have a fit body you wear body revealing clothing, if you want people to recognize your long legs you wear a short skirt, the list could go on forever.
The point is that people dress in a way that allows them to be recognized for what they view as important. Some don't care at all about fashion, but even their appearance is a testament to that. What people can recognize in one another determines how people treat one another. If you are a prostitute you dress in a way that identifies you as such, and you welcome sexual advances because sexual behavior is most important to you as it is your job. If you are a doctor and in a hosp., you dress in a way that communicates to ppl that that is what you are.
If you are a Muslim woman who covers you WANT to be recognized as such by everyone who sees you. You dont want anyone to confuse with anything else because that identity is what is most important to you and will not be compromised.
The reality is that many people may not understand why Muslim women cover as they do, some even hate it, some think its comical. Whatever view one has you know that when you see this woman she is not someone who wants to play around, and be bothered with foolishness.
Your comments about what people see when they look at Muslim women are based on your own personal opinions. Its okay everyone has them. As long as you still treat Muslim women with the respect you would give any human being it doesnt matter whats in your head, right?
The word Islamists is not a real word, a person who follows Islam is called a Muslim.

Here's an interesting point. The Burka (as in full face covering) is not actually required by Islam. It predates Islam and is part of an older Arabic tradition.
Let people believe what they want to though. Forcing belief on others will only ever lead to bloodshed.

Its not to force anyone anything. For you to suggest Muslim women are not human then it only says something about you and nothing about them. Just a few decades ago all women dressed modestly, heck the swim suit and the mini skirt are only of the last century.
If you think clothes make for individuality and personality i take it you have never heard the saying "the clothes dont make the man"?
Women are far from being seen as property in Islam if that is your perception that is all it is YOUR perception NOT fact. I am neither faceless nor used for sex (that's a laugh, my town center on a Friday,Saturday night is full of "human girls" as you put it giving oral sex in the street, half naked and urinating openly, eating burgers and taking this weeks one night stand home. They are NOT used for sex though? Do i have that right?) nor do i lack a personality and yes i do bring up my children and have a career and a life outside my home.
I could not care less what an a-hole like you sees me as. Do you seriously think we are worried about ignorant, dirty prejudice like you? Well i have one word for you .............. NO.

I think with your answer to above question you have your own teenage problems to worry about. Now come on little boy bed time and let the adults talk. LOL
PS less than 5% of 1.6 billion muslim women wear a face veil and those that do, do it by choice. There is nothing in Islam that states we are to cover our faces. Come on is it not time for your homework yet? Hannah Montana not on tonight?

Sorry i cant provide a link for you of american soldiers killing a family including there 3 year old child, raping there teenage daughter then pouring gasoline on her then setting her alight. And what do you call that? Or because she is a muslim girl she doesnt count?
Are we to blame all americans? Or just the ones who committed the act?
But its OK for you to hate all muslims for the acts of a few?
Grow up little boy. Rant all you want, provide all the links you want. But you dont know Islam at all. I know it i live it and have experienced zero of what you suggest is common place. And dont tell me i have nothing to compair it too i was not born into a muslim family, i was not raised a muslim, i lived 33 years of my life as a non muslim and i know exactly what non muslim life is about. So i am more than qualified to know exactly what is on both sides of the fence.
