the issue was liberty...the argument regarding that has always been between covering yourself and between doing whatever you want with your body...I don't see how you can debate/discuss the topic by just looking at one side...some women think the right to cover themselves if they want to is liberty and some women think otherwise..what's the issue with bringing in the other side's argument?
otherwise, by that logic when someone says something against India's actions in kashmir, you should not be telling them to fix pakistan's problems in baluchistan before pointing fingers at india and vice-versa..
its not hijab
This is Cathy Freeman in Sydney 2000 Olympics. . . . (not muslim)
Mere Chaval bhai...read the story. It is done by Dailymail....not a Pakistani ummat newspaper.

The issue is being raised on media just because she is muslim, anyway a skin tight dress like this (top to bottom) is far from being "islamic" in anyway.
Big deal being made out of all this!
Nothing wrong with bringing the other side of the argument......yes the bold letter statement is true....but we are not talking about some women....
the point am trying to make is different......what am saying is that vast majority of these women are expected to cover up and dress in a certain way because of direct or indirect pressures...it is not entirely their own decision and also this has been drilled into their minds when they were young......I don't call this liberty in true sense......now take off your islamic cap for a moment and think which woman who has the support and confidence of men in her life be it father, brother before marriage and husband would like to wear hjab, niqab, etc......
your kashmir balochistan example is totally out of place here......the reason is you are indulging in hypocrisy when you point out Indian actions in Kashmir when you are doing the same thing in balochistan........whereas I am not in favour of such restrictions on women in my society/community for example pallu (mainly head covering but face covering also) practiced in some parts of north India.....
