But it's just as true that clothing is a personal choice, religiously inspired clothing even more so, and that some women gladly wear the burqa or the chador as a full-fledged expression of their faith--and a pointed reaction to those who would contravene it in any way. (Public thoughts) -No it shouldnt be banned: No right for u to say it should be banned, Australia is a free country and it is non of our business to say what they should or shouldn't wear, it doesn't affect us or our culture so leave them alone!
There was a Pakistani girl named Malala Yousafzai who got hurt for saying that women deserve an education in her country. She didn’t care if that’s what her society thought to be acceptable, she knew it wasn’t right and so she rebelled against the whole idea of it. She survived her injuries, and now she protests for women to have a better education. There are a lot of women all over the world just like her that rebel against society’s view of women. In the story, the Awakening, Edna also rebelled against society by freely expressing herself.
Why does the young Fatima prefer to wear her Tunisian clothes to the Western dresses her mother likes her to wear? Why does her mother want her to wear Western clothes? Fatima does not want to worry about dirtying and disarranging the Western type dresses. She would rather wear her traditional, comfortable clothing that does not require much attention. Her mother wants her to wear Western clothing because she does not want her daughter to follow tradition, and believes that clothing can change the way people view her.
This is just one example of the way men misuse texts in the Koran to justify the repression of women. This also shows how women are not told of the dangers in this because they are just women who don’t need to be educated. The only thing the doctors who try to help these women can do is tell them the dangers against genital mutilation and proceed with the surgery even if they decide to go through with it. After generations of this practice, many women were taught to believe it made you more beautiful and kept you from becoming a prostitute. The more knowledge gained of genital mutilation led to different reasons of have the procedure done, such as “keeping their daughter’s chastity” (37).
It is common to see the Iraqi people in abayas; although, the younger generation does not seem to like them much. Nevertheless, no Muslim female wears either the hijab or the veil because their male cousins force them to wear it.

Restricted by Their Beliefs Elias Monsalve “I attest that this paper upholds the Manhattan College Honor Code as well as the expectations of and responsibilities for academic integrity outlined in The Community Standards Handbook.” Elias Monsalve Elias Monsalve April 15, 2014 Religion 110 Section 06 Dr. Shefferman Restricted by Their Beliefs History has revealed to us that women have been treated unequally up until the early 20th century in The United States, and other countries have followed in our footsteps. Although all this good is happening, Islam tends to restrict opportunities to women of all ages. The Middle East is a cultural region full of rich history, but does not see forward progress due to restrictions placed on women for employment, education, and even lifestyle. It is not only just that women are treated equally but a moral obligation to mankind. Whether you are a devote Jew, Christian, Muslim, Buddhist or atheist, it is a human beings right to get an education, work where her heart pleases her, marry who she wants, or even be allowed to wear what clothes she desires.
For instance, even though many of the Arab American women are required to cover themselves, almost all of them cover their bodies because they choose and not because they are forced to. Being unaware of the choice that these women have, the dominant society judges them and makes them feel like they are oppressed. The images that many people saw in the media, when the Arab-Americans were shifting from model minority, to problem minority were women who were covered and absent from the scene and suddenly without a complete knowledge of what is really going on. On the other hand it is not only the immigrants that control and regulate women’s sexuality. Based on Entry Denied, the U.S regulated Asian American women’s sexuality.

Marianne Lyles says: “In recent years, the International Islamic Extremist Movement
To ensure that people continued to believe this concept the church used this verse from the bible as proof “woman in her greatest perfection was made to serve and obey man.” This belief put women in a state of being mentally isolated from men. Being second-rate citizens meant that few of them received any formal education; because they lacked schooling they became intellectually isolated from anyone whom had received any type of formal education. During this time period women were beaten into submission when they failed to instantly comply with the orders any male relative gave them. Shakespeare wrote about many of these Elizabethan beliefs in his play Othello. The play centralized around the lust for one very beautiful, young girl Desdemona.
