Sun on skin?

Is it true that most people are intimidated by a Muslim woman who is articulate, confident, intelligent, educated, pure and who covers her head?





And are these same people also intimidated by the fact that, in ten years' time, this Muslim woman will look much younger than them since she has not exposed much skin to the sun?


Also, chances of her acquiring skin cancer are remote compared to her non-Muslim sisters and brothers of the world.


And, no, if you look around closely, sunscreens haven't done their job quite well.

Sun on skin?
I do not believe that it is necessarily intimidation. I know I am not intimidated in the least. I love meeting all sorts of people. Different cultures will follow their own traditions. Most non-Muslims don't even think of skin cancer when they go out in the morning. Their primary concern is looking good for the present day. I do not question Muslim culture, they have followed their traditions for too long for any individual to have the right to question them at the present. Non-Muslims will never feel it important enough to cover themselves just as Muslims, if given the choice, would still choose to cover themselves. For both cultures it is a way of life, a second nature. Neither feels the need to change their ways
Reply:Not true about intimidation at all. True that she probably has better skin than many Americans though.
