10 Problems Only Veiled Girls Will Understand
Every girl has her own set of problems and thoughts that drive her insane. But when you’re veiled, you constantly complain about the same stuff over and over again! So for all you veiled girls out there, you’re not alone!
P.S.: If you’re not veiled, we know you have problems, too, so please let us whine in peace.
1. I’ve got two words for you: Evening gowns!
Why is finding a long, evening dress with long sleeves that isn’t sabotaged by terter such an impossible mission?
2. Not sure if weather is too hot to breathe, or if it’s just the 15 layers I’m wearing
Is this top too short? I’ll wear a cardigan. Is it transparent? I’ll wear something underneath it. But today is a good day, I’m only wearing FIVE layers!
3. Finding a matching veil
Does this colour even exist in scarf shades? Ana halbes tar7a msh lay2a w khalas!
4. Just because I’m veiled, it doesn’t mean I’m Mother Teresa
I’m still human, don’t give me that look when I make a mistake, and I do not know everything there is to know about religion. I’m just trying, like everyone else.
5. You’re complaining that your hair falls? Try wearing a veil 15 hours a day
6. Always wondering, “Am I a hypocrite?”
What difference does it make if a bit of my arm shows? What if I want to have fun and still be veiled? Does that make me a hypocrite?
7. Everything I wear makes me look FAT!
15 layers and baggy clothes… Yup, you can call me grandma!
8. Feeling like an alien on the beach
Well, at least I don’t have to worry about having the perfect beach-body! But, not showing any skin does make a person feel so self-conscious!
9. Speaking of beach, the Hijab tan line!
That 1 cm of lighter-toned skin shade circulating my face will always look ridiculous! Is this why foundation was invented?
10. Having to question whether or not pretty much everything is veil-friendly
Dress code is No veils? Is there anywhere we’re still allowed entry into?
