Do you think it goes along with those other religious traditions of denying education, employment etc. to the burka wearing females.
The same females who aren't supposed to talk unless talked to by their man first?
Burkas are rooted in repression, not religious freedom.

Some things I agree with Duffman about, especially this. It would take years of brainwashing to convince someone to wear a burka, which from what I understand has no religous backing. The fact users claim they are happy wearing it is a testament to the brainwashing (for the most part).
This is not that much different from not letting your wife leave the house.
I don't feel proud of our religous freedoms when I see someone wearing one, I feel really bad for them.
