Its not a sin to show off your body but it is a sin to deliberately entice others to sin by looking at you. Making people fall in lust over you would be sin. Rightly so. I think we should have laws that make sense not like sharia law which makes no sense whatsoever.If a particular religion wants to have a dress code under threat of expulsion, they can knock themselves out, that's their right. But the government/law should never enforce any kinds of those codes. If looking at a woman is a "sin", that's between you, your god, and your church. The government should have no concern over that.
- There is also an issue of laicity. Laicity is different from secularism. According to this no one can display or promote their religion in public areas, for instance in school or universities or in public offices (like the Parliament or senate for instance). If you want to wear a cross for instance, you have to put it under your skirt when you enter the school building. Of course you can do whatever you want when you are in the street or in the shopping mall. But in public buildings, religious signs are forbidden. That’s Laicity.
So there is naturally a debate in many countries on this issue.
Of course the debate is open to everyone. But my point of view is that the religion itself does not promote this type of behavior, that the issue is cultural more than religious, so 1) The person herself (according to me) should not act as if she has such a superiority complex and if she can’t (because most of them are forced to wear this dress even if they live in Europe or America or are being brainwashed on this issue from a very young age) then 2) governments should accept this issue as a cultural issue rather than a religious issue and therefore allow them to wear whatever dress they like.
- Still I don’t like it and I will keep totally not liking it.
