But Islam often doesn't let women think on their own, their husbands or fathers are to think and choose for them. That isn't always the case, but often is.

You are reffering to "freedom of choice". It's a good thing. <3

you saw anklebone ??

Flowing robes 100%, literally designed for being in the heat and sun. 35C isn’t even that bad, it’s hotter in Texas.

but Arab clothing is literally designed for the Sahara desert

My understanding is that the fabric on burqas (or whatever those clothes are actually called) are extremely lightweight and provide shade, so they actually aren't any warmer than t-shirts and shorts. Possibly because they block the sun, they might even be cooler.

But that's simply what I have heard and I personally don't care to find out either way.

Sun tan lotion doesn't cut it for me, and I can go from white to red in a matter of minutes. So yeah, loose flowing clothes seem nice (not a fan of burqas esthetically but I never tried one so maybe they're comfy?)

That's even more stupid.

Source: it's me. I'm the stupid.

Covid seemed to change workplace attire in my company forever. I used to wear a coat and tie to meetings and events.... I'm now wearing a polo shirt and stretchy chinos with "dress shoes" that are basically sneakers.

If you think these people are stupid, wait 20 years and see who has more skin cancer.

I've often thought that we can squarely blame Western Europe for the proliferation of suits being the normal business wear. It makes sense for them because have you visited the UK in summer? Or northern the northern half of the continent? It's downright cold sometimes. In the middle of summer. It makes sense for them to wear all that crap all the time. I do wish we weren't influenced so heavily by that to the point that we don't have any real alternatives when it comes to formal and business attire.

The hijabs are working as intended lol
