Let me first say - I am a modern guy, the only reasons I have doubts about feminine equality is that it does not comport with the reality of feminine superiority (especially my wife's over me.)
However, now that I have a daughter, I understand the burqa. I am not saying I approve, only that I understand.
I have friends and relatives with older daughters and it has been a joy to see them grow up from little girls to charming and lovely young women. I look forward to watching my own daughter grow up (she is only two so there is a way to go - with probably a long pony obsession phase in the meantime).
But I also know how teenage boys think, and when I consider that - suddenly the burqa doesn't seem like the worst idea.

Your daughter's two and you feel that way? My daughter's 15 and I know the feeling.
