A recent article in a City Edition of Times of India started on lines something similar to this - Burkhas may not be plain and simple. You can make a fashion statement with various designer burkhas. Then it went on to illustrate how to make burkhas fashionable.
- Contrary to popular opinion, burkhas are not meant to hide a woman's beauty, they in fact enhance feminity. With changing times, those who've embraced the burkha, have even added a dash of oomph, and traded the plain black drape for a chic style statement.
LOL. Burkhas ? Enhance feminity ? How on earth do you figure out whether the person behind the burkha is a man or a woman ?? Without removing it of course. A black tent would be more apt a term to describe the burkha.
I guess if ghoonghats are the symbols of oppression of women in India, then how come burkhas are fashion accessories ?

PS. Personally I am not in favour of either.

hey u knw what now RAMA is just creation ... as per not Islamic republic crescent belt from pakistan to turkey with saudi in between right here in india Govt of india has given this undertaking !!phew
I do not think this is an issue to be taken lightly. This is only another example of how pseudo-secularism operates.... "burqa enhancing feminity"...ugh!!!! Next, I will not be surprised to find a scholarly article that burqa does not restrict but enhances women's mobility and empwerment.
This is nothing compared to the inanity these morons mouth every now and then that “Islam is a religion of peace”. I mean how can you top that stupidity?
