Women in chadors are really feminist ninja warriors. Rather than allow themselves to be gawked at by male strangers, they choose to defeat the “male gaze” by hiding from it in plain view.
But don’t you worry: Beneath that chador, abaya, burqa, or veil, there is a sexy courtesan wearing “Victoria Secret, elegant fashion, and skin care lotion,” just waiting for her husband to come home for a night of wild and sensuous marital lovemaking.
Obviously, these are not my ideas. I am quoting from a piece by Naomi Wolf that appeared in the Sydney Morning Herald a few days ago. Yes, Wolf is the bubbly, feminist author who once advised Vice President Al “The Climate” Gore on what colors he should wear while campaigning and who is or was friendly with Gore’s daughter. Full disclosure: I have casually known Wolf and her parents for more than a quarter-century.
Wolf recently traveled to Morocco, Jordan, and Eygpt, where she found the women “as interested in allure, seduction, and pleasure as women anywhere in the world.” Whew! What a relief..

Do you find having you head bring separated from your body sensual?
Huh? This whack job needs to go live in either Iraq or Iran for a year and see how “liberated” the women there are...
Naomi Wolf proves that the stupid can succeed in the world.
And being beaten is just part of it all.
But, do they smell as bad as the French? I don’t care how much lotion and perfume you apply to a sweaty unwashed body, it is still nasty.( if you don’t believe me, just ask Obamma)
Naomi pwning her people.....
Naomi Wolfe,she wants to be “relevant” and tolerant............but in the end she just wants some man to dominate her, she is a fake.
Well then, convert Naomi and find out first had what a wonderful husband a Muslim man might be. Let’s start off with beatings just so you know your place. Complain? Another beating. Call me in about a month and tell me what a wonderful enlightened world you now live in!
These liberals think Islam is romantic? The world is upside down.
Jesus come quickly!
Stepping back to the BIG picture,
it just shows that leftist feminists
are on “the other side” - opposing
the Truth and battling for Satanic
dominion of the earth.
Since Muslims are on the same side,
they defend them.
..culture in general, what they have is not even close to being consider culture...
Don't get me wrong, mizz wolf is deranged about her assessment of feminism in ths case, but anyone who has seen shopping malls in mid eastern cities can tell you that the lingerie shops there are full of great items!! Makes Victory Secret look like Auto Zone by comparison.
Things that will protect a woman from the predatory male gaze: a husband or boyfriend, getting older, children in tow, a better neighborhood, a car, a don’t-mess-with-me attitude, Western-style modesty.
All allowing for more freedom of movement, comfort, and unimpaired senses than Muslim-style modesty.
I can believe that the headscarf and modest clothing allow women to feel as if they are being treated as individuals and not sexual objects, but the full veil - the burkha and niqab - are utterly dehumanizing. Men do not see the suffering of women under black tents.
Wow...the she must think that honor killings are really cool...
Let's ask them?
No one in the USA cares what she says, so why does the Sydney Harold?
