Apparently I have to say this but not every headscarf is a hijab.

I wear headscarves in the winter to keep my ears and neck warm. I'm not a Muslim. I'm so sick of terrorist jokes or questions about Shariah Law because I don't wanna be cold.

You learn not to have that much expectation from the majority because they start malfunctioning when required to think too much. I mean, to this day there's still people out there that don't know how to differentiate a Sikh to a Muslim because they both just so happen to wear headwear.

Is u dumb blud

@SW-User Exactly. Hate crime sky rocketed for both Muslims, Sikhs and even Hindus because people mistook them for Muslims. Yet people have the nerve to say "I'm not racist because Islam isn't a race" why is it that people have and still are being targeted based on appearance then?

@NickiHijab No one ever said bigots were bright.

I think you may have to move if this is something that confuses those in your area.

Who is making these so-called "jokes"?

@chrisCA I was hoping BlueMetalChick would message me with a list of these bigots' SW names so that I can look for things to report them for.

@HairbrushDiva I believe these are people are in real life.

@chrisCA Are they? We don't get bigots like that where I live.

My grandmother was a devout Catholic and did not go out into public without a headscarf. She didn't cover her face, but did her hair.
chrisCA · M
@ViciDraco It was the tradition back then.
ViciDraco · 36-40, M
@chrisCA and I'm not saying it's bad. I'm just saying that more than just Muslims do it. It's more rare to see Catholics following it these days, but there was a time.
chrisCA · M
@ViciDraco Oh I agree with you, I was raised Catholic, but no one would have screamed hate at your grandmother, and tried to rip off her head covering.
