Ogling

@ahmadjee

I repeat; woman’s choice of clothing doesn’t give any man the right to ogle. If they are such pious Muslims, they shouldn’t be looking at them in the first place to figure out of they are properly covered or not. Those men who justify such ogling would also justify raping of a prostitute or any other woman in a dark ally saying it’s all her fault because she shouldn’t have been in the wrong place at the wrong time. And with the same reason would justify honor killings. It is a flawed logic.

Well said ahmadjee. What’s more disturbing though is that in places like Pakistan, a lot of girls DO wear a massive chaddar and try and cover themselves up properly. They get obscenely stared at anyway. I am not talking about girls in jeans and tight kameezes here. Plenty of people DO dress properly in Karachi, twice in two years I’ve been there and a lot of women on the streets had a massive dupatta as well as a chaddar wrapped around them. I’m not talking about Clifton/Defence, I’m talking about the rest of Karachi. They are still getting gawked at. No, you couldn’t see their chest or any skin or anything like that. Khair, I guess they deserve it.
