That demonstrates your lack of understanding or concern for what the Burkha represents to many women. Female slavery is an insignificant issue to some men for obvious reasons.

Right but you are acknowledging that there is a literal meaning, and a misinterpretation? Surely. I genuinely don't know how far back I need to go with you.

There is only one meaning with the KKK robes. And your comparison is ugly, and idiotic.

Your dismissal of the significance of requiring a woman to wear a Burkha and how offencive that is and how it is often used to enslave and abuse women who have no power is what many women would find ugly and idiotic.

It is every bit as offensive. Slavery is slavery and can’t be measured with one deemed to be more serious than another.

...I have no idea if you're baiting, if you're serious, and if you're okay. So I don't really know how to respond to this, without repeating myself? The KKK robes are used for one purpose. You compared this to a burqa, but not the burqa's main purpose, some misinterpretation of the burqa. Which was inappropriate and ugly. Take a breather, brillo.

What misinterpretation - it is not a religious requirement of Islam - just a convenient interpretation to enable certain types of men to control and abuse powerless women.

"And I know this because last week for breakfast, I had a nice bacon sarnie, topped with fried egg, mustard, relish, and page 22 of the Daily Mail".

You’re the one obsessed with the DM not me. What I can say is that most tabloids are no better, including the Guardian, and many are worse. I source my info from many different sources as I have demonstrated on many occasions. But just you go ahead with your spurious insinuations if that’s what rocks your boat.
