Pupils will be banned from wearing abayas, loose-fitting full-length robes worn by some Muslim women, in France’s state-run schools, the education minister has said.
The rule will be applied as soon as the new school year starts on 4 September.
France has a strict ban on religious signs in state schools and government buildings, arguing that they violate secular laws.
Wearing a headscarf has been banned since 2004 in state-run schools.
You’ll be in for quite the surprise when you learn how these fundamentalist muslims think about trans rights
Im pretty sure I can advocate for freedom for everyone everywhere and not run afoul of any hypocrisy, because I’m an adult capable of thinking.
Yeah you sure can advocate for people to be free to hate trans people and indoctrinate their children with it. You can sleep easy
Force them to wear some different clothes, that will make them tolerate trans people more.
Seeing where this comment thread originated: do you believe Trump supporters will stop hating trans people faster if we allow them to wear their religious uniforms?
I don’t think there’s a law against MAGA hats.
Yes people are allowed to hate anyone they want. What they’re not allowed to do is act on that hate.
