The Debauchery of American Womanhood: Bikini vs. Burka
By Henry Makow Ph.D.
On my wall, I have a picture of a Muslim woman shrouded in a burka.
Beside it is a picture of an American beauty contestant, wearing nothing but
a bikini.
One woman is totally hidden from the public; the other is totally exposed.
These two extremes say a great deal about the clash of so-called
"civilizations."
The role of woman is at the heart of any culture. Apart from stealing Arab
oil, the impending war in the Middle East is about stripping Arabs of their
religion and culture, exchanging the burka for a bikini.
I am not an expert on the condition of Muslim women and I love feminine
beauty too much to advocate the burka here. But I am defending some of the
values that the burka represents for me.
For me, the burka represents a woman's consecration to her husband and
family. Only they see her.
It affirms the privacy, exclusivity and importance of the domestic sphere.
The Muslim woman's focus is her home, the "nest" where her children are born
and reared. She is the "home" maker, the taproot that sustains the spiritual
life of the family, nurturing and training her children, providing refuge
and support to her husband.
In contrast, the bikinied American beauty queen struts practically naked in
front of millions on TV. A feminist, she belongs to herself. In practice,
paradoxically, she is public property. She belongs to no one and everyone.
She shops her body to the highest bidder. She is auctioning herself all of
the time.
In America, the cultural measure of a woman's value is her sex appeal. (As
this asset depreciates quickly, she is neurotically obsessed with appearance
and plagued by weight problems.)
As an adolescent, her role model is Britney Spears, a singer whose act
approximates a strip tease. From Britney, she learns that she will be loved
only if she gives sex. Thus, she learns to "hook up" rather than to demand
patient courtship and true love. As a result, dozens of males know her
before her husband does. She loses her innocence, which is a part of her
charm. She becomes hardened and calculating. Unable to love, she is unfit to
receive her husband's seed.
The feminine personality is founded on the emotional relationship between
mother and baby. It is based on nurturing and self-sacrifice. Masculine
nature is founded on the relationship between hunter and prey. It is based
on aggression and reason.
Feminism teaches woman that feminine nature has resulted in "oppression" and
that she should convert to male behavior instead. The result: a confused and
aggressive woman with a large chip on her shoulder, unfit to become a wife
or mother.
This, of course, is the goal of the social engineers at the NWO: undermine
sexual identity and destroy the family, create social and personal
dysfunction, and reduce population. In the "brave new world," women are not
supposed to be "nest" makers, or progenitors of the race. They are meant to
be neutered autonomous creatures that indulge in sex for physical pleasure,
not for love or procreation.
At his press conference on Sunday, Donald Rumsfeld said that Iranian women
and youth were restive under the rule of the Mullahs. He implied that the US
would soon liberate them. To Britney Spears? To low-rise "see-my-thong"
pants?
Parenthood is the pinnacle of human development. It is the stage when we
finally graduate from self-indulgence and become God's surrogates: creating
and nurturing new life. The New World Order does not want us to reach this
level of maturity. Pornography is the substitute for marriage. We are to
remain stunted: single, sex-starved and self-obsessed.
We are not meant to have a permanent "private" life. We are to remain lonely
and isolated, dependent on consumer products for our identity, in a state of
perpetual courtship.
This is especially destructive for woman. Her sexual attraction is a
function of her fertility. As fertility declines, so does her sex appeal. If
a woman devotes her prime years to becoming "independent," she is not likely
to find a permanent mate.
Her long-term personal fulfilment and happiness lies in making marriage and
family her first priority.
Feminism is another cruel New World Order hoax that has debauched American
women and despoiled Western civilization. It has ruined millions of lives
and represents a lethal threat to Islam.
I am not advocating the burka but rather some of the values that it
represents, specifically a woman's consecration to her future husband and
family, and the modesty and dignity this entails.
The burka and the bikini represent two extremes. The answer lies somewhere
in the middle.
