Rachel, I just wanted to let you know that we've bumped the maximum upload to 65 MB per upload on UThink. Hopefully this change will meet with your approval!
it's weird how all of those people in the "rating physical beauty" were comparing it all to a small percentage of what real women are. i guess i laughed really hard when that one boy said "jane" was "that feminist magazine." I LOVED THE MUSLIM video one. interesting contrasts.
- Niqab is not the same as hijab. The interviewees were asked about the niqab and then the rest of the video went into a hijab-love fest.
- The song. Really, equating hijab with a woman's "dignity" is quite offensive to those of us who don't wear hijab. The implication of the video was that a lack of hijab makes a woman akin to the magazine cover models. It's also interesting that that particular nasheed, praising hijab, was sung by men, who obviously would not be hijabis.

My issues with the hijab video:
- Niqab is not the same as hijab. The interviewees were asked about the niqab and then the rest of the video went into a hijab-love fest.
- The song. Really, equating hijab with a woman's "dignity" is quite offensive to those of us who don't wear hijab. The implication of the video was that a lack of hijab makes a woman akin to the magazine cover models. It's also interesting that that particular nasheed, praising hijab, was sung by men, who obviously would not be hijabis.
