[QUOTE]Originally posted by With a name like Smuckers: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by katangah: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Demiana: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Jamsie Cottar: [qb] Demiana and Ayisha Do you think some christian girls wear the tight bun scarf thing? or would it only be moslem girls. If the whole idea of hijab was to cover the shoulders etc and they dont use it as such, is it not hypocritical? Please explain in a bit more detail as to it not being hypocritical. I'm not getting the logic here. Thanks [/qb][/QUOTE]I have never heard or seen an Egyptian christian woman wearing hijab or a scarf for that matter. It does make them stick out in the crowd though. I know western christian women wearing hijab (in Egypt) though. Don't know, some maybe on the road to revert or maybe just to match within the family and not raise all sorts of questions. I believe someone is personally responsible for giving meaning to the wearing of hijab. I am not the one to push them in the stereotyped ideas some might have of it or make a guess and assumptions about the 'standard' meaning of hijab according to whatever believesystem. Girls will be girls. Even Madonna does wear a cross, does that make her hypocritical? [/qb][/QUOTE]Actually christian women in rural traditional areas cover their hair. [/qb][/QUOTE]My christian mother covers her hair when going to mass (church). [/QB][/QUOTE]
