Im all for human rights and a strong advocate as well. what many may not have realised about the Burkini row is that its not necessarily human right or women power. Its a continuation of the battles of two ideologies that is behind every war in the world. One that believes you have the right to choose for yourself and another that imposes choices on people. Whenever people see a Muslim woman all decked up in Hijab and all, they see repression and that is what this is about.My take on all of these?, since the west gives permission for freedom, they are going to have to live with many they have allowed into their system, all traditions included as long as it does not break any laws.That is the Achilles heels of democracy.
More so, westerners can wear whatever they want in Muslim countries (Dubai, Qatar, Tunisia, Morocco etc), it is common sense that the same should happen in retrospect.
