Personally i think it's a horrible and backward religious symbol which helps to reinforce gender discrimination, i see literally nothing positive in them whatsoever.
Thoughts ?
Women must remove veil to give evidence, should they be banned in public places ?

I don't believe you have the right to tell a woman what she can or cannot wear, tbh, brennan.

You are wearing it back to front then.
But we already do. Women aren't allowed to go topless in public places (FFS) for example.

I believe in personal choice.
I agree there's little positive about them. Personally I see them more as a cultural thing, more than a religious symbol.

Love seeing people wearing veil's getting pictures taken of themselves, family albums must be a [Poor language removed] to organise.

We're expected to abide by very strict cultural rules if we visit Dubai, and rightly so.
Conversely, I think our society should be able to set our own cultural rules. And in my view, the veil is one of those things that should banned by law in public places; especially courtrooms, colleges etc.
It's about respecting heritage more than anything. If they feel that strongly about it, then I'd have to suggest finding a culture that supports and accommodates that particular thing.

If I was a muslim woman, I would have no desire whatsoever to live in any of the muslim countries given how few rights they have there.

...I think its a very difficult one, but what is without doubt is that no woman should be forced to wear it by domineering males under religious guise.
Good stuff mate, glad to...
Wait a minute...

They should have the right to choose. We have no right to impose limitations on what is personal choice. There is no consistent evidence of oppression to women in Britain in relation to the hijab and the real issue lies with an indigenous paranoia of an unknown culture.
My spider sense is tingling. Will close this
