I can understand why someone may want to kiss the person they love. The other act you mentioned is not comparable in any way and a thoroughly disgusting idea to introduce. It says much about you. Two people of the same sex kissing on the street is not repulsive to me but the sentiment you expressed in that post certainly is.

My name is URL wrote: » Things shouldn't be banned just because they make some folk feel uncomfortable. That's a step backwards. The sight of a woman's legs once made 'society' uncomfortable, so women were forbidden from showing the skin of their legs... was society better off as a result? Gay people once had to hide the fact that they were gay because it made people feel uncomfortable. Again, was society better off then?

I know that the Irish PC brigade are colonised by American political culture and can't imagine any other worldview but in France public religiousity is frowned upon. In Ireland it isn't so it would be odd to ban a niqab but not a shawl or a nuns costume. Let's live and let let live my multicultural friends. Respect French culture.

But if there is a never ending stream coming in, that doesn't really matter. Unless natives start having more children, inevitably, they will become minorities. Or outbred, as you so eloquently put it. In 2010, just under a quarter of all newborns in France were to a parent born outside of Europe. It's no conspiracy. It's a simple numbers game.

Hatip: kind of folks who wear niqabs probably don't like women's bare legs. You know along with the parts the niqab is covering.

What, in all honesty, is wrong with people of a different background growing up in Ireland? That's what's implied by this sentiment, and I find it quite worrying. You're right, it is a numbers game, but the numbers involved in such a change ever occuring are so ridiculously big, that it's not going to happen. And if it does happen, big fuccking whoop, the human race has never remained static, a single, homogenous "national culture" is a relatively new idea in the scheme of things, and while it can be nice to feel this sense of belonging to something, this can in itself be dangerous. Cultures come and go, the only constant seems to be people cannot stop being diccks to each other.

Stop every religion from influencing anybody outside of their place worship. From Looney Christians to nutball Muslims and crazy Jewish Zionists and everything in between. Not like chairman Mao tho. That's the other end of the extreme. I have seen it being said that its the woman's choice to wear it. Not much of a choice when the alternative is being labeled a harlet.Then again I have never had a meaningful conversation with a devout Muslim woman.

It is totally degrading, look at what the taliban have done to females in Afganistan for feck sake, stoned them to death for the most trivial of things. This has nothing to do with being racist, its called common sense. We should all stand up and say enough is enough, I admire the French for their stand on this. Muslim woman should do the same, stand up and be counted and say no the the niqabs.
