Mr Pipes has only described demerits of parda ,i think if we see the advantages of niqab and burqa we will be able to negate its minor disadvantages .

parda provide absolute protection to the women,it prevents the sexual offenses.let suppose a women is not using niqab ,she is going to the market for shoping and she is beautiful,suddenly some males see her, due to her beauty they are attracted to her and they gang rape her.this would not be happened if she had hajab or burqa.she does want sex but she is tortored to sex.we that what are the complication of the gang rape.

Mr Pipes says that rickets is produced because of the parda. it is wrong because if it was true then we must have large portion of rickets in muslims, there is no such indication. further more we have data that suggests high portion of skin cancer in those white female that bask sun nakedly.

i request all my non muslims sisters that they must once in life use burqa and see whether it gives dignity to women or not.
