Arabians, France and Belgium

[Science talks]

Belgium has forbidden the Arabian women to have their traditional vale on their face. France also wants badly to addopt this law.

Do you think that this would restrict the Arabian women's rights and traditions or they have to addapt to the country where they are and to be like the other women?

I actually had a conversation with my roommate about this issue a few days ago. The idea that a nation would restrict the cultural traditions of a group of its citizens or visitors on such a racist, bigoted basis is confounding. Should then the citizens of these nations be criminalized for speaking their native language when travelling abroad? Truly language is only a cultural tradition, they could lean to speak Cantonize!

If you are in Rome do as Romans do - if they are in France they have to follow the country's laws. I agree with the decision to ban vale.

I think it's up to every country to follow their own traditions. I see no problem that Arabinas ladies wear vales.

very nice ,that sounds awesome.

Every person has the right to dress what he or she wants even when we speak about vales

Sure to be free in any country of the world is just and even legal. But to my opinion to wear traditional clothes or speak native language in the foreign country can be judged by the local population like disrespect. So may be this situation with vales is from this field.
