France ban abayas in state schools

[~ True Legend ~]

Religious signs were already banned in schools, as were full face veils, Jewish kippas and Muslim headscarves. I wasn’t aware of this. Unbelievable.

France to ban female students from wearing abayas in state schools

The education minister says female Muslim students will not be allowed to wear the loose-fitting robe.

Now abayas, the full-body loose clothing worn by Muslims, is now banned. Wow. 😱 Human rights of Muslims being breached.

I don’t see religious garments as particularly influential because that’s just a personal choice and not our place to dictate these things IMO.

Shocking for France, a country in the EU. I wonder whether the European courts of human rights would agree with this.

IMO: It's their country, they have every right to make their own rules without US sticking our big nose into the discussion.

I’m sorry, but that’s just as Muslims are entitled to wear abayas. Laws should not be made at the expense of our civil rights IMO.

I can see why. Muslims try to take over every country they get in to.

Not surprised. That's how religions work by converting and assimilating people. They start by targeting little kids and then brain washing them as they get deeper in. A majority of kids are easily influenced and if they see other kids jumping on the band wagon, they will likely do the same just because their friends are doing it too.

From what I've heard its just a normal garment with no religious meanings attached to it, so it shouldn't be banned in my opinion.

Muslims frequently wear these.
Religious garments shouldn’t be banned anyways.

I don’t believe this would brainwash kids. It teaches kids about the real world and the importance of tolerance. Many Muslims wear headscarves in schools in the UK and no one has ever been influenced by it. You don’t wanna teach kids that wearing religious garments is bad behaviour and imposing, we wanna teach kids that it’s something to be respectful of and tolerant of, while we may not agree with their views.

This is a bit like banning gay education in schools. Doesn’t mean your kids are all gonna come home gay, it just teaches tolerance. Even if the kids come gay, who cares? Society will become more tolerant with this education.

I agree, some people need to leave others alone. If these garments are worn for modesty then the schools should have no problem as they are often saying that girls need to be more modest with their clothing (as if it is any of their business) but I think the issue here is that those who are against it just simply want to sexualize these girls in the same way they do others.

I say this because when it comes to similar issues regarding the schools policing what girls wear, it is always coming from the faculty, who claim that the girl's clothes are distracting to the boys in the class.. and it is the students, (usually boys) that come to class dressed in girls clothes to show solidarity with the girls.

And this is why it isn't really a surprise when these same schools end up embroiled in CSA scandals because the teacher ended up being a pedophile. This is pretty much where it starts.

Many broke the rules as expected - some changed when asked while others didn’t and so were forced to leave, with a successful dialogue with parents being the condition for not being excluded.

I hope the legal challenge succeeds.
