@sharghzadeh Though I found Damascus to be more hijab compliant than many places

@sharghzadeh Why arab seculars keep imagining things like they doesn’t know the reality?

@sharghzadeh In 1970, the TFR in Syria was 7.7. We can safely assume that the average Syrian woman didn't look like that.

@sharghzadeh Syria is not a secular country, neither officially nor demographically. Most Syrians are religious, and are devout Sunni Muslims. The government claims that it's laws take inspiration from fiqh, particularly the Hanafi madhab. Unofficially, the Shi'i government discriminates

@sharghzadeh Well, you won't find people with 1970s fashion in Syria anymore. They wear 2020s fashion instead.

@sharghzadeh They are still rocking bell bottoms?

@sharghzadeh Syrian here. What happened is more and more schools were built in rural areas and the “people” turned out to be not homogeneously in love with urban elites and their Western lifestyle. Also secularism was weaponized but the military and Islam became the counter ideology.

@sharghzadeh @_GulBadan_ Actually they don't because bell bottoms went out of fashion decades ago :P

@sharghzadeh A little more happened I guess, e.g. Bathist autocracy imploded and a war is raging now for a decade.

@sharghzadeh @Twitter I don't want to se such filth on my timeline. I have reported though...

@sharghzadeh Why is women wearing revealing clothing empowering to women? A woman is more valuable than her body and only speaking of them in this context is disrespectful to women and their value they have in society.

@sharghzadeh Maybe that's the reason why Syria is like what it is like today.

@sharghzadeh Really??

@sharghzadeh Yup!

@sharghzadeh These guys would take a pic of elite has some norm of civilization when statistics would say it was the most backward of the country, not related to this since I haven't studied but that Afghan photo in Kabul with girls in skirts redditors jerk off it, it was at the time when

@sharghzadeh This just tells that it still doesn’t change anything in fact, the condition of Syria is worst!

@sharghzadeh To them wearing revealing clothes = progressiveness 💀

@sharghzadeh Muslim country but ruled by secularism

@sharghzadeh They love to show the minority ‘Elite’ dress code from the 70’s but forget the majority in that era, before that era & after that era worse the Islamic dress code.
