Pew did a survey on –
well this is how they titled the summary:
How people in Muslim countries prefer women to dress in public
Which is annoying, because there aren’t “Muslim countries.” Even the ones that have constitutions saying Islam is the official religion aren’t “Muslim countries”…
…but never mind, one knows what they mean.
Then again it’s annoying for another reason, which is that it sounds so bossy.
Never mind, never mind – what about the survey?
It’s depressing. Almost everyone in every country surveyed thinks women should have their heads bandages up to one degree or another. Lebanon did manage a whopping 49% who think no bandage at all is best, but even that is under half. In Saudi Arabia 63% opt for the black bag with a slit for the eyes.
