genuinely think a whole lot of hijabi discourse on twitter is bc yall are way too online. go out touch grass make friends with some muslim women actually talk to us ! stop trying to unveil us in our conceptual entirety !! we are individuals !!!!!!

@cclabubu @FiruzeD89576 nearly every additional point you made. Especially in regards to this deification of Palestinian men and the ignoring of the DV and all violence inflicted towards Palestinian women by them. This fighting does not make saints, nor do people need to be saints to have peace.

@cclabubu @FiruzeD89576 which seemed to further the dehumanization of Arab men. You mentioned plenty of other points in your response, which are good points, but you seemed to be operating under the assumption that I disagreed with them or believe in what you oppose, and I don’t. I agree with you on all

My people endure a living nightmare and everyone, men included, have performed acts of deep heroism. The dehumanization of Arab men is what makes us see young boys as potential threats that must be killed for preserving “security.” This comment hurts so much.

@FiruzeD89576 @cclabubu Thank you so much.

@cclabubu @talalthinks This guy literally advocates for freedom on both sides for hijabis and ex-hijabis, he doesn't judge ex Muslims like us, he even defends girls who take off the hijab from hardline Islamists who call them bitches, he himself gets bullied by Islamist men for it

@cclabubu to the ones back home and suffer similarly too. I don’t know who hurt you to develop this much hatred and disregard for human life, but I hope you get the justice you deserve. But dehumanizing Palestinian men enduring horrors contributes to the disposability of their lives.

@cclabubu like mine segregated themselves historically for protection. That means all the mental illnesses, stupid religious beliefs, misogyny, and homophobia they have from the region came with them too. So, despite being in “the West” many immigrants experience conditions similar…

Maybe I need to take a short break from this site. It’s already enough to see my sisters wearing the hijab deal with sheer hatred and vitriol when they already go through so much. And now this…I’m so hurt by all this. Why is it so hard to listen to people when they speak?

I wish Muslim societies aloud girls to just be Muslim girls, instead women are seen as representatives of the religion, and the community, they're the holders of their family's honor and must act right or else ppl will eat them alive with their talking, and parents won't+

I wear hijab as a political protest. That's it. Fuck every other person coming up with different reasons to wear or not wear it. I just want to not feel compelled for writing about it anymore. It is like something I want to avoid futile to discuss it but this is my protest.

@x8is_ @JuJuna5266 You are right. 😭

@talalthinks @JuJuna5266 Even when they say they are not insecure, it comes of as sounding insecure since a truly non insecure person has little desire to prove that they are not insecure lol

The question is, do they care as much as you do?

@JuJuna5266 @x8is_ What about F’deeha culture? We’re super arrogant. But Arabs care so much about what other people say they will conduct whole schemes to restore their “honor” (reputation). We gossip consistently to extract info we can use against others. We hurt family because of what people say.

@x8is_ Not it's true. They really are not concerned...which can be good and bad.

@_Do0p @Morningbird_Asa I hate them all equally. 😭😭😭

@talalthinks @Morningbird_Asa Try baggier models

First time wearing my Kuromi crocs outside (Eventhough I'm more of a Melody girl)

@Morningbird_Asa That hasn’t been my experience, despite my persistence. 😂 But yes. I think those jeans and crocs look good together!

@talalthinks They sometimes make me uncomfortable but you get used to it if they are cute enough.
