We are all blind. Blind to self. Blind with two perfectly working eyes.
Our perception of self is formed from other's perception of that 'self'. We always care about what others think of us. When alone in a room, you do exactly what you wish rather than what others might expect you to do. You dig your nose, spread like a frog on the bed, scratch your arse, or jump like a monkey-you basically drop those shy pants. And as soon as you realize there's someone watching, you behave in a way the other wants you to behave or does not want you to behave. Either ways your behaviour is affected. You are no longer the same person. A different person in your own skin.
Considering the Burqa culture , in my opinion, it is more liberating than oppressing. One can do anything behind the veil and no one would know. This allows a person to do and be as he/she wants to be. Many movies show how one uses a burqa to get away with things that he/she wouldn't want people to know about. And many a times, be a part of all the immoral acts possible where a covering saves the person from being exposed. Which means it's OK to do wrong things when no one is watching? Does conscience really exist? Would all of us be the same if we had the power to be invisible? Think. Think.
