Bill To End Ban On Headscarf Raises Fears In Secular Turkey

A bill that would lift a decades-old ban on women wearing head scarves at universities was submitted to parliament Tuesday, worrying secular Turks who fear the government is raising the profile of Islam.

Deniz Baykal, leader of the pro-secular Republican People's Party, called the attempt to lift the ban a "threat against the republic."

Under the new proposal, female students would be allowed to wear head scarves at universities as long as they tied them under the chin, leaving their faces more exposed.

"Chadors, veils and burqas will not be allowed," Nationalist Action Party leader Devlet Bahceli said in reference to Islamic clothing that covers the body from head to toe. "No one will be allowed to use head scarves as political statements against the state.

The subliminal message by covering the head by Muslim women are that every square inch of their body is private part, every square inch of it can make you horny. Therefore their entire body is an 'awrat, (lit. pudendum, genital) and a sex object from head to toe. People cover their private parts. Muslim woman thinks their entire body is private part. Does this in anyway arouse respect? Only one who thinks with her genital may think so. They think they are 96% vagina and 4% people.
Muslim women have determined that all their bodies, except their faces, are extensions of their genitals, including their heads. Thinking with their genitals they can't distinguish the difference between their hair and their pubic hair. To them both are embarrassing and should be covered. Thinking with their genitals these ambulant vaginas are fighting for the right to be humiliated, beaten and treated as sex objects.
