Arguments for:
[*]It symbolizes oppression of women in Islamic societies.
Wrong.
It is the direct oppression of women in Islamic societies.
[*]If a cultural symbol becomes strong in your nation, the symbol must be banned to protect your own cultural dominance in your own nation.
Or, you hope your damn traitor comedians find ways to make the intruding symbol so hysterical embarassingly funny it falls out of favor.
I would think the burqa would be an easy target.
[*]It has nothing to do with the Muslim religion.
You mean besides the fact that Islam is the most misogynist religion ever spawned from Abraham's original bad dream?
[*]And the most obvious reason, it's goddamned ugly.
You seriously want the government to legislate fashion?
