I volunteer for two doctors and they're both WOMEN and MUSLIM. AND I am so friggin proud of them because they defy and destroy the b u l l s h i t stereotypes the west has about Muslim women. <3
MY CULTURE is NOT some boho trend. It is NOT something "chic" and "trendy" that you can exploit at Coachella. Henna is not "boho" and it's not "tribal flash tatoos." Women of my culture get shamed for wearing a bindi, for wearing henna, for representing their culture and you want to use it as a fashion trend to prove that you're "Exotic"? HELL NAH. You shame us Muslim women for wearing a hijab, for wearing a veil, yet you can wear one to look exotic and cultural. UHM NO. MY CULTURE AND RELIGIONS IS NOT YOUR FASHION TREND. That bindi doesn't make you look cute and that henna on your hands which I was shamed for wearing does not make you look cultural. And DON'T you dare tell me otherwise. I know more about my culture and religion than you do.People in my culture get shamed for having darker skin, you mock our "otherness" and our failure to assimilate yet you appropriate our culture. Disgusting.
