debate on whether women should be allowed to wear the burqa in france: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VnPwVIEcaQ
my opinion is simply that sarkozy is full of cultural imperialism and, though i don't agree with the burqa and would never wear it myself, whether a woman wants to wear "too much" or "too little" is entirely up to her. why should the president have a say in what maybe 2000 women in his country decide to wear? seems petty and symbolic of a bigger issue to me.
