This student of history knows full well that even in our America WOMEN did not get their right to vote until the 19th Amendment early in the 20th century! Men controlled society in many ways.
I will be, now, on the record to say that the women of the world deserve and must demand that they will be treated equally in every way. That means NO MORE subservient roles in world societies...NO MORE being forced, as women, to cover their heads unless THEY so choose to do so...NO MORE being stoned or killed for being a women.....
France's President, Nicholas Sarkozy, announced on June 22nd that 'burkas' are "not welcome in France", that the women are "prisoners behind screens". He also noted that the 'burka' is a sign of subjugation for women and not a religious sign! The French National Assembly will begin studying ways to restrict its use in France.
At one time, in history, men were required to wear a burka...no longer, just women. The Koran, by the way, does not mention the use of a 'burka'.
