Do we have any Saudi members on the forum who can confirm or not that some babies in Saudi wear veils?

I find it very difficult to believe.

Daoud claimed that baby girls would be protected from abuse if they wore a full burka


Here's a creative, revolutionary idea: Teach your males to respect females as equals and partners instead of viewing them as second class citizens and possessions. If you raise young men to view women/girls as nothing more than outlets for urges you cannot control, then it is obvious you have a damn skewed set of priorities.

What I also find weird is the fact that there are a lot of beautiful men, so how come they don't have to wear a giant sheet too?

Is this any more cruel than Jews chopping off babies foreskins?

You do realise that most infants grow up to be adults right?

The following is my opinion as a member participating in this discussion.

Dunno, ask a Muslim male, they also circumcise their male infants. (But you would probably prefer we not point that out, as your comment was decidedly to deflect a perceived criticism away from Islam... in the future, perhaps you should research your counter example to ensure Islam doesn't also practice whatever it is you're offering as a comparison or contrast. Helpful Hint: Both Judaism and Islam shun pork products.)

Furthermore, perhaps you should educate yourself on circumcision. Most non-western medical experts agree that circumcision is beneficial in regards to reducing the risk of contracting HIV as well as urinary tract infections. It is also a demonstrated fact that circumcision reduces the risk of both penile cancer and cervical cancer in the male's partner. I have yet to see any stats on burkas reducing STDs or assisting in pretty much anything outside of, I suppose, helping the wearer combat a chilly breeze.

As an ATS Staff Member, I will not moderate in threads such as this where I have participated as a member.

First of all, it is only Shia Muslims that have compulsary circumcision. To address your point about circumcision being healthy, why does God make us born with one. Isn't it a bit of a criticism of God, to say hey God, you idiot, you got that bit wrong, let me correct it for you?

Thirdly, I have no idea why you mentioned pork, but I like bacon.
