I love how adults make rules for children who than grow up to either hate or feel inferior

aenigma, you already know very well that that eleven-year-old girl isnt on the bull's eye for you and some other people.



And what, may I ask, is on the bull's eye Qdemir?



Just read over the thread.



I have read the entire thread thank you - and I imagine you are trying to imply I am racist or anti-muslim. I am neither and only wish there was compromise in some people. I have no wish to continue this discussion or any other on Turkish Class and am very offended by your comment.

the rules of the FIFA doesnt exactly prohibits the wearing of hijab. What they prohibit is wearing ornaments/clothes that may pose a danger to the player itself and other players.
The girl came from Ontario and her wearing a hijab while playing is allowed. The Ontario soccer association(or whatever they call it) doesnt think it poses a danger. But then their team went to Quebec to compete in a tournament. As their is no specific rules as to the prohibition of wearing hijab it was the referee who decided and believed that its dangerous. But the coach was complaining because the team already played like 3 games on that specific tournament before the referre decided its dangerous.

I was only referencing your last post aenigma.

And Cap, a saftey pin in her hair is more dangerous than the spikes they wear on their feet????

The issue is ridiculous, especially at age 11.

The headscarf issue in the western world is totally hypocritical and harassment.

I'm sorry, but I see real safety issues with it. Navy boats don't allow sailors to wear wedding rings, teachers can't wear opened toed shoes to work, and cooks can't wear shorts. You know in Western society people SUE FOR EVERYTHING!!! Why else do you think they have to tell you how to fasten the safety belt on planes, or point out that the big RED E-X-I-T on the plane actually is the exit. Because some 'morron', Gavi I think here is appropriate, didn't do it correctly and when there was some turbulance fell out of there seat and sued the airline. Or ice-skating rings have to post "FLOOR IS SLIPPERY"... I don't find prejudice here...i find them trying to keep the players safe and avoid a costly lawsuit if something were to happen.
