Ohhhh damn! I showed how your analogy was wrong so you change the usage of the word and thus the original point of the analogy. It's like you use meanings that suit your needs.


Reading your comment again, do you think I misspelled something?

No, you're quite right that someone like you can't possibly be dumb or wrong, and the bolded correction can't conceivably make sense. I mentioned your spelling professor because your math professor from the other thread was so insightful so I'm eager to learn what your spelling professor has to say about this.

Agreed. We should be far more willing to call out shit religion and religious cultures. For some reason, some here don't like to see others call out other cultures when stuff happens closer.

The story of modesty in Iran is an interesting one eh
Interesting how Muslims adopted it from Iranian culture
Then the times when Westerners wanted the Iranian women not to wear them even though it was a huge insult (like demanding western women go topless)

Cool stuff

( yes, I know you probably learned all about it in high school, but others may be interested)

No.

Western women travel to these middle eastern regions and usually adopt these practices either out of respect, or simply because it allows you to interact with the locals. What is often missed, also, is that some women actually prefer to wear hijab, western or not, if having grown up in that culture and actually given a choice to do so or not. The differences in thought here can be generational but also an acceptance of the reality that traveling in these countries without adopting a rather simple cultural norm paints you as an outsider and can easily isolate you.

It's a nuanced, strangely complicated issue that the OP is rightfully attacked for because he thinks this is a simple situation that he can swat away with the petulant little infantile ideas that he has formulated from within his culturally homogeneous south Texas bubble.

So some women Western women don't mind = all the women participating in this event should not mind and keep quiet?

Man you have a hate hard-on for me. Well dummy let me explain. You said formal clothes. Swimsuits are not formal wear. Even still, suit is not misspelled in that case. So unless there is something else, then I have no idea what you are talking about. Feel free to explain though.

Telling women they must or must not wear something because they are women is sexist. Be that a rule in Iran or the USA. I personally don't expect Iran care about sexism, but the reaction by the chess org seems the more surprising issue here. What I am further surprised is where people here seem to fall on the issue.

No, pretty sure I think of you more or less how your teachers do. These geniuses are the reason they're fighting to teach remedial.

Don't the men have to follow the dress code too in Iran?

If they have a dress code specific for men then or too is sexist. Not sure of the rules but it would not surprise me. Again, the main issue that I am talking about is the org and how people are reacting.

Do you mind just saying what word you think I misspelled? That would seem quicker than what you seem to be doing.

It used to be that I thought you couldn't understand the ways you were being mocked, but now I realize you're a comedic genius who's taken parody to the next level.

That's ridiculous.I will speak to someone in charge around about that.
That is unacceptable.

If that makes you get off my johnson.That's OK

I'm up for you being banned probably a third time at least myself.

Ignore works, but you're a PITA on the forums in general.

But I guess if I can't see you I won't worry about it in the future.

I may be a thorn in your side because I speak the truth but that's your problem.
Don't make it mine;That's all I have to say.
