Germany - School bans miniskirts because "religion" and "culture"

I know plenty of muslims who have no intentions to hurt anyone.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

That's what they want you to think. They smile at you but behind your back they call you "giaour" which is an insult to all who are not muslims, especially Christians and that includes us too - atheists. The moment you lower your guard they'll stab you in the back and you better pray that they don't stab you literally.

O_o

That's.....paranoid. And not true. Are you really going to argue that *all* muslims are bloodthirsty homicidal maniacs brainwashed from birth? I mean come on.

I'm going to sound like a defensive pro-Islamic faux-liberal here but hear me out.

That attitude towards muslims as a people doesn't help. Muslims are as diverse as any other group, and by making these Xenophobic sweeping statements about "they stab us in the back" you are going to alienate potential secular allies within the Muslim and ex-Muslim communities.

Nobody should ever generalise Muslims as a people, whether it's for good or bad intentions. Even people who say things they think are well-meaning like "Muslims are offended by immodest women" (the basis of this thread) is problematic. Saying that erases the Muslim woman in Iran who is fighting desperately and risking her life to ditch the headscarf. Far more Muslims (or those labelled Muslim) have died from Islamism than Non-Muslims.
"Adulthood is like looking both ways before you cross the road, and then getting hit by an airplane"  - sarcasm_only

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable."

Oh great!

I will watch the Kebap man on the corner from now on and be suspicious when my neighbour wants to talk with me. In case he wants to stab me in the back.

Honestly, goes to show what I always point out: There are some atheists I don't want to be associated with. Especially the "christian" atheist brand. Get some medication before anyone gets hurt.

Yeah, and what's wrong with that if the alternative is getting paranoid and bigoted.

Ooh. And all these years I thought the turkish girl I was studying maths with was just sharpening that pencil so she could write better. How naive of me!

She wasn't writing, she was..... practising her aiming!!11!
And I only had a fountain pen to defend myself.
I shudder just thinking about it. I am lucky to be alive, truly.

Have you observed what every single Muslim does behind your back?

Hey if there's a dress code in your school which can include clothing, uniform, logos and so on it's fine and the schoolboard can pick whatever they want - but in this case we are seeing a school without any dress code changing it's rules because they're afraid some boys can't control themselves. It is humiliating to women's rights and freedom of expression.

I don't see the problem if it's supposed to be temporary.  If a visiting group found the color red deeply offensive, then I'd be fine not wearing anything red for a couple months.
