Cultural Appropriation

Maybe this board could clear something up that was discussed in this thread: Would it be considered cultural appropriation for a non-Muslim white transgender woman to wear the headscarf that is commonly known as a hijab?

What is going on in this image?

wtf I love christians now

victoria fashion week, what else?

Ffs, Islam is not a culture. When you wear a nun outfit, does it mean you're appropriating european culture?

have you ever watched ancient christian movies
i think the headscarf started not as a religious thing cause it existed in the middle east before islam and even in other areas

Yes

Like said, headscarfs aren't necessarily Islamic so you can wear one without "appropriating" someone's culture if that's something you're worried about. More zealous/misinformed types might not accept that though.

How? A religion is not a culture. Yes, some elements of a country's culture can be traced back to religion but the two things are still fairly separate.

Does it even fuckin matter?
Just wear what you want.

Different cultures have different methods of wearing headscarfs I guess. Dosn't matter though, they all give me a boner.

I love it that you are a Middle Eastern saying this because it really shows that only liberals get fussy whenever someone does something that they feel only a culture they do not subscribe to should do. I am thinking of that one ProBoards thread that was posted in that /lgbt/ thread.

Culture isn't zero sum, there's bound to be undue influence, liberals tethered it to ethnic identities and now reactionary rightwingers are playing on the same field, they're shocked

But there would generally be no offense taken from Muslims should a non-Muslim wear a headscarf?

I read in a thread on /cd/ @ 420chan there is a new trend among white nationalists where they are slowly embracing Islam. If this is true then why does this scare the living bejeezus out of me?

Nah. They will think you're a muslim though, but they won't take any deep offense by it. As you said, the whole scare is mostly made up by liberals and leftists.

lol, if anything reposting on social media at the western enlightenment and adoption of the true religion, otherwise a few hotheads about cultural belittlement and nobody cares

Also its basically a religious symbol signifying enforcement, religious authority on society, etc - beneath even here you'll see skimpy blouses and skirts, toned thighs and breast contour visible. Bin Salman's 60 minutes comments suggest he wants to get there too in Saudia

>dogmatic, authoritarian, blanche carte to commit your violent wishes based on archaic principles
not exactly a leap

No, and also anyone who's not a non-mediterraenean european or euroasian steppenigger can't wear pants.

You got it backwards, elements of a religion can be trace back to its culture. Heil Ukko and Heil EVROPA!

Well I obviously botched that but I hope that you still get the drift.

Wear whatever the fuck you want. Only a true idiot would get mad at people who wear clothes from a different culture.

>Literally the cancer tearing EVROPA apart and completly alien
>not a big leap
They are literally just edgelords who realized being wn wasnt special anymore if you hang out with wns

One argument I encountered was that if someone were to wear a headscarf for the issue of balding then this would be done as an act of vanity thus making it cultural appropriation. Is this true?

Depends. If it's a male wearing it, then it's gonna look weird but if it's a female then it's okay.
>cultural appropriation
Depends mostly on the area where you wear it in. Honestly, it seems white people are more bothered by people celebrating other people's cultures than those people themselves, I don't really understand why.

This is kinda weird question though, cause hijab is a female thing, not male.

>Is this true?
Even if it is, so fucking what? Cultural appropriation is just a term used to make people feel guilty for experimenting with fashion. There is nothing wrong with adopting fashion and styles of clothing from other places, especially when it's something as nigh-universal as a head-scarf. You don't honestly think it was problematic that the later era romans wore pants do you?

I'm curious as to what you think about this, but where in the world would be the safest place to wear a headscarf (hijab variety) without getting shit from social justice warriors?

Obviously in a highly conservative muslim country.
Other than that pretty much anywhere. People would just presume that you're a conservative muslim and we all know that islam isn't a race.

The middle east.

How would you rank your home country of Sweden?

Wtf is that for bs people in europe wore veils too and still do like old ladies ine eastern europe. Even if it somehow was unique to sandpeople, so what. Im not going to get mad when a nonwhite wears a suit lol.

No, it wouldn't, but it would be idiotic, like those tourists who go around Tokyo wearing kimonos

Why do I still laugh at the thought of the "first feminist government" donning hijabs when they go to the Middle East for negotiations?

What if it was for a reason such as hair loss or balding as the trannies on /lgbt/ clearly suffer from?

This is one of the ministers of our previous government, she suffered from cancer. There's no problem if you're balding

Super safe in that regard. I know of no movement of group of people who would find it problematic in the slightest allthough that might just be confirmation bias.

Non close associates or strangers would have no reason to believe that you weren't a muslim as an extremely white swede is quite similar looking to a chechnian or another type of traditionally muslim-but white-ethnicity. The similiarities are even more so if you hide a fair chunk of year head behind a scarf. Even if they knew you didn't come from that background you could still have converted.

Add to that that swedes are not the he most confrontational of people and you'd be fine.

Because swedes are actually quite douchebaggy in their sense of being the most virtuous of people. Donning the hijab is viewed as a sign of respect rather that submission.
Besides the hijab is not sexist in the sense that it's anti-women but in the sense that's blatantly anti-men.

How is it anti-men?

Respecting the demands of arab men more than the native euro men I guess

How is it not? It's a fabric you drape over your head to shield yourself from being raped as men are sex-crazed beasts unable to control themselves if they see something vaguely sexual. That's the purpose of the clothing. Wearing it sends a clear signal that you deem men as animals rather than rational people capable of maintaining their morality.

You seem upset by this and aren’t men sexual creatures? I mean look at those who inhabit chan websites. But how can this piece of clothing protect women from the gaze of man when there might be some men who have a fetish for hijabs?

Idk about the conversation you were having with the swedish flag, but the whole argument is that when women cover themselves up more and they don't show off their body then there's less chance they'll get raped. i don't believe it, a man who's going out with the intent to rape is gonna rape anyway regardless of what you're wearing, but maybe he'd go to bars or some other places where the women are easier because they're high/drunk etc.

>You seem upset by this
Why shouldn't I be upset about sexism?

>and aren’t men sexual creatures?
Humans are indeed sexual creatures but that doesn't mean that they are, or atleast should not, be ruled by their impulses. As sapient group animals capable of empathy we are held to a much higher standard than that.
>But how can this piece of clothing protect women from the gaze of man when there might be some men who have a fetish for hijabs
Because most men don't. Statistics ya'll!

No. Nobody is getting hurt by it and in the end she's just gonna look fucking stupid for doing it.

The argument is that the garment's purpose is to ward off spontaneous rape for pleasure by hiding 'triggers'. It thus follows that wearing it means that you don't trust men to be in control of their base instincts.

Male sexuality is a fundamental need where as female sexually is entirely mental.

Don't be a dingus.

Why is Sweden so cucked?

The higher your iq the less aggressive you are the more cucked you are me thinks

The japs have the highest IQ on the global scene yet they didnt screw up their country so far.

I think it's because of spread protestantism and atheism, all german/anglo/scandi country that have this are cucked beyond repair

What about you? Arent new ones arriving at your shores every day?

They're far away from africa
Other than that they're extremely passive wouldn't you say?

I dont know man. They arent afraid to speak up their mind for one.

Could you explain precisly what you mean by cucked?
For a general explanation this is pretty spot on >Because swedes are actually quite douchebaggy in their sense of being the most virtuous of people.
I.e we desperately want to come off as good and virtuous people.
It's our equivalent to the yankee 'right to bear arms'.

Lel I haven't realised untill now how much Ivanka looks like her mother. No wonder why Donald is so incestuosly fond of her, she's basically a young version of his wife.

Japs are emotionless robots so they're an exception to the rule
