........................."Atangana is connected with a group called Muslim Support Network and is one of a number of street-corner clerics commonly seen at the Yonge and Dundas Sts.

In an e-mail to the Toronto Sun, Atangana said "the reason ... these sex attacks are continuously happening is because (of) Canadian laws, which give too much freedom to women" when it comes to how they dress.

"You should take your example from the way Muslim women dress," he wrote. "Why does (sic) Muslim women who wear long dress and covers her head aren't targeted for sex attacks?"..............................."

Strange the men who are so religious and go without eating during daylight in Ramadan can't control their impulses when they see a woman's ankle.

Just another narrow-minded, non-thinking radical, who thankfully is being called on out on this crap.

Fatah says it is "hogwash" to think a woman wearing traditional Islamic dress will not be sexually assaulted, and points to an on-going problem of sexual harassment in Egypt, where Muslim faith dominates.

According to a 2008 report from the Egyptian Center for Women's Rights, 83% of Egyptian women had experienced some form of sexual harassment or assault at some point. And well, over half of those surveyed around 70% wore veils of some kind, particularly head scarves.

"These results disprove the belief that sexual harassment is linked to the way women dress," the report states. "This confirms that the stereotypical ideas of a patriarchal culture that blames women even if they are victims, is opposite to reality."

A slut walk is a great idea LOL!

"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill

Combine the slut walk with a gay rights parade!

I thought about a separate thread but it seems to complement this one nicely.

"Just as disquieting was Jonathan Freedland’s Guardian piece, in which he decried hateful speech against Muslims, describing it as “racism, of the crudest kind,” and then added: “but the subtler ones are not much better.” For Freedland these “subtler” forms of racism include attempts to “dress up in progressive, Guardian-friendly garb – slamming Islam as oppressive of gay and women’s rights, for example – but the thick layer of bigotry is visible all the same.”

Who wants popcorn more - the person walking by the popcorn stand or the person taking a shower? and more to the point, does it matter if they are on a diet - meaning they believe it is wrong for them to eat the popcorn?

Seems here in the US that we frown upon women showing their breasts, is it not for the same reasons as this guy explained?

..you don't know me very well, I don't frown, I smile when I see exposed breasts....


Back on topic, good point, just because they aren't our standards of dress, doesn't mean he has no merit.

I remember an interview with an old carnival barker, he said they had to shut down the peep show because the female customers on the midway were wearing less than their preformers.
