Quoting alameda:

Another interesting dancer in that time was Loie Fuller

Loie Fuller (also Loïe Fuller, born Marie Louise Fuller) (January 15, 1862–January 1, 1928) was a pioneer of both modern dance and theatrical lighting techniques.

Fuller is responsible for the European tours of the early modern dancers (she was the first American modern dancer to perform in Europe), introducing Isadora Duncan to Parisian audiences and developing the acceptance of modern dance as a serious art form. Her 'Chinese dancers' were the subject of the second section of W.B. Yeats' poem 'Nineteen Hundred and Nineteen'.


did they wear hijabs?

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! don't ask, or expect me to defend Saudi Arabia's situation. They are a very radical and reactionary group.


alameda, not long ago you had a different opinion on saudi arabia! you and omega were prasing the status of saudi women. what happent to you? am i to count on the wind of change in sunny california?



Fem, I do not recall ever praising Saudi Arabia in regards to their human rights program. Can you show me where you got that idea? They have a very peculiar version of Islam that in my opinion is way way off track, and in fact is perverse.

As for the wind of change, I always try to keep an open mind, unlike some.

Quoting ciko:

what if they are wearing headscarves willingly?



Of course most women wear them willingly. They have been brought up with this culture and they accept it.

Does it make it right?

It's not about muslims only, I have the same revulsion for any culture where women willingly (or unwillingly) accept a lesser role and are treated like slaves. The USA have some great ones...Quakers, Plymouth Brethren, Mormons....



How are these people taking a lesser role and treated like slaves??

Do I really need to give you examples? It supports the kind of patriarchal society that you will find in Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, Iran. Even in less extreme societies (and you can find it in the US too in some of the religions/cults I mentioned!) it supports a culture centered around man's jealousy, dominance and superiority where the woman takes a house/sex-slave role.

Do you believe a woman who is a housewife is a second class citizen?

If you define a second class citizen someone who has less rights, freedoms and social power, there is nothing to believe about this, this is the socially and politically objective truth, especially when we speak of underdeveloped countries.
