How do muslim women feel about their controlling husbands forcing them to remain hidden behind a mask for life

Do you consider this inequality to be acceptable?

They do it by choice as they don't want to be seen in public for marrying such an ugly man.How do muslim women feel about their controlling husbands forcing them to remain hidden behind a mask for life
I'm not Muslim but work with a few Muslim woman, they wear the veil in public because they choose to. They are also well adjusted confident happy individuals.


On the other hand I know of non muslim women who are downtrodden and victims of domestic violence.
They actually did a poll of Muslim Women and asked them many questions about their faith and culture...and pretty much across the board the women wouldn't want it any other way.





Why? Because the ';other'; option looks like an American way of life...and they felt that that was not good. Not with the body image we try to impose on women, not with the lack of faith and religion in our daily lives.





They are a culture of faith....and their faith is interwoven in their daily lives. Is it controlling? Yes, to a good sense of the word, but it comes down to culture and heritage.





Do I consider it acceptable? Who am I to say they are wrong? My wife and I definitely do not have those same sets of rules...but then again who are they to say that my way is wrong? We cannot say they are wrong because we don't live in that culture...and I have never experienced it...thus I cannot condemn it.





Good luck, and may God continue to shine on you.

Well, not all Muslim women have to wear masks. The majority, I think, do not.





However, Muslim women can sometimes get exasperated with their husbands (but who doesn't?). I remember once hearing a Muslim mother at my sons' school complaining to her friend that she had asked her husband if she could wear a skirt, as it was so hot (trousers are considered more modest). He said no, but she could wear shorts if she wanted to. As the woman pointed out in exasperation, the shorts that her husband had said she could wear were a lot more revealing than the skirt she had wanted to wear, but because the shorts were officialy 'trousers' they were okay, whereas the skirt wasn't.
That assumes that the husband is 'controlling' and that she wears a mask.


None of the wives of muslims I know wear masks.


What does any woman feel about a controlling husband? What do henpecked husbands feel about controlling wives?





There are people who get a thrill out of wearing masks(chains, straps etc.) maybe they would like it.





The world is full of lots of different types of people - go out and learn a bit about them.
No woman is forced to wear it .. it is a choice .. you are talking about very rare cases,usually this is not the case AT ALL.
Greetings,





I'm not a member of an organized religion, but I want to quote these words to you from the Apostle Paul, ';For whatever a man sows, that and that only is what he will reap.'; Threatening people is not going to make you safer. It is going to make you less safe.

Often it is the women themselves (mothers, sisters etc) who enforce this practice. It can be more cultural than religious.
The Muslim women accept it because they believe it is specified in their Koran.


They have accepted inequality in that each Muslim man can marry four wives legally, also in the Koran
WHAT THE....??!!!


WHERE DID YOU GET THAT???!!!





THEY NEVER DO THAT. Are you talking about radicalists or Muslims and where? In certain countries, it's a rule.





It's your choice whether to follow or not.
I'm not a Muslim woman so I probably shouldn't answer this since I don't know how they feel. The only Muslim women I know are people that I work with who doesn't have to live in an Islamic country, so they don't have to live behind the veil.


On the other hand, maybe they feel a bit like your avatar :P
Nobody is controlling anybody, they do it because of their love to their husbands and everything that are theirs are for their husband only to see, isn't that beautiful.
Let me admit nowadays women are controlling men in middle east. When you will stop such statment?


If we continued like this we will be slave to them.
ok am a muslim guy %26amp; i tell you 99 % of muslim husbends these days dont force theri wives to wear the hijab or veil by force they do it by their own free will.... %26amp; in marriage in islam not by controlling its by sharing %26amp; respect to each other
