Sweden: Ebba Busch, deputy PM & leader of the Christian Democrats, calls for a total ban on the burqa & niqab in public

23. Oh, I sure hear you as a feminist myself, but also get yardwork's pov...

Still, I guess I'm more glad that not that the burka is banned in those European countries. The naquib you do see the woman's eyes.
Let me clarify that I find the burka offensive, not too thrilled about the naquib, either.

I just double-checked that the burka at least can be blue, or light pink (also brown, or burgandy). At least those two colors (blue , light pink) reduce the sniffling heat factor of wearing black in hot climates, or time of year!
Think of the fact that Saudi men wear all white traditional outfits that reflect heat, not absorb it like black color/fabric does!

There used to be, I think, a joke about NYC women (of which I am) wearing all black - can't remember what it was about. I love bright colors, a few shades, rare pastels, and also wearing an all black outfit. However, I don't wear an all black outfit over around 70°F/21.11°C; it'd start to get too hot on any partly to full sunny day!

Living in NYC you see all manner of clothing, but only once did I ever see a woman in a burqua of any kind (it was black) in a store, and that was around 35+ years ago. It was shocking!
I'm not sure I've seen a naquib.
