Figure of speech- not literally (lighten up people)
My comment about ignorance was not an insult at SaraJane. It was merely a figure of speech. I did not mean it literally although some people should use their common sense when it comes to arrange marriages and their customs. But then again, majority of Australians, maybe, are not familiar with such a practice, today. On a personal note, I am all for the pursuit of true love; love marriages. Note that am not saying, all arranged marriages don't have love. I fail to see what is so appealing about arranged marriage. SaraJane, although you haven't said only Muslims practice arrange marriages, you have indicated it because of your failure to mention other cultures having this practice. SaraJane, you have not criticise Islam and I am not assuming you of it. However, sometimes you should never believe everyone you watch or hear. For example, the media does a very good job of misleading the true image of Islam.
Sorry ladies but I can't respond to the discussion on Hijiab, not tonight, maybe tomorrow night when I am more up to it. At the moment I have other commitments.
