I'm not even sure how it is relevant. I've been to Australia before and loved it. One should not necessarily judge a country based on the absurdity of their laws, and being a law abiding citizen I follow the law, even when it is absurd. That doesn't mean I can't object or campaign for change.
What you are NOT observing is the law of the land.... here we don't tolerate full face coverings..not well any way. You cover your face you ar a criminal or diseased. You Libertarian attitude will not wash here. We are a Pluralistic society and value that "If in Rome-Do as the Romans do."
Should I find myself in say Afghanistan or Saudi Arabia..then i would don the Burqa...because it is the Culture and LAW of that land. Beyond that Tiberius you have no argument.
You also have no idea of what constitutes a Burqa..did you actually READ that Wiki article you posted??
Burqa are a TRIBAL item of clothing and I would ask you to investigate this problem further before you start spouting nonsensical gibberish. Many of the females in the countries of origin of said pathetic pieces of clothing are adamant that this sort of condemnation and abusive misogyny be abolished. So much for the "Libertarian" attitude...what you are saying is that we should keep females in bondage??
