seen in a bad light.... alot of emphasis is put on the way we dress, or the way we carry ourselves and is seen that we are trying to be provocative....

then, all hail to the modest dressing arab ladies, that wear an abhaya to protect there modesty.

I feel that it should be each to his own... you don't instill your ideals on me, and I won't instill mine on you....

Yes, I am western and yes, I sometimes wear something that might be a bit more revealing than it should be, but I don't think that I should be punished for that... Just because I want to go out and feel and look good, does not mean I am hunting for a man, or begging for attention... It just means that on that particular day, i wanted to feel a bit more feminine that I normally do....

I too, along with most western women want to meet a man that will treat me with the love and respect I deserve. I would only give the same back... more infact as that is in my nature....

Where is the difference with any women in the world with that need?

Its not that difficult to understand.... so I don't know why its made out to be....
