I had no idea some Christians fasted. I know one may give up something for lent but I would not call that fasting. I guess Christianity is Western Europe is very watered down compared to other parts of the world.
That aside, my post was mainly speaking in terms of Ramadan. How people try to rationalize dehydrating themselves. I could not understand why people, on the longest day of the year, would want to deprive themselves of hydration. If you don't drink enough water your skin will become unhealthy and spotty and then that got me thinking. There is this trope that Muhammadan women tend to become more modest during Ramadan, at least according to Abdur Raheem Green. And might wear the Hijab during Ramadan only and I thought this might be because the dehydration is causing them to become spottier than a dalmatian and they are ashamed of that but don't want to admit it.
