Jean Glasburg is another westerner seduced by delusions of complete cultural grasp of global goings on of a feminine nature.
‘Veiled’ women are not idiots and automatons subjected to humiliations and repression by men.
This kind of patronizing nonsense shows shallowness and white supremacy Marc.
The veil is a many splendoured thing, piles of cultural and practical layers.
I’m a Muslim woman who wears a Chaddar when out and about in the old country. There are thousands like me. Not oppressed not silenced by men. It’s cultural.
I’ll write at length about it at a later time.
Right now this lady got to me.
Living in america has taught me a thing or two about white supremacy, insensitivity, pomposity and cultural ignorance.

Great article, I agree with you of course.
