What is the difference?

Complete non sequitur and straw man

No. Instead a perfectly reasonable extension of what you wrote.

If a woman in a miniskirt is "putting herself in harms way" of rapists...
Then a muslim man in traditional clothing and a long beard is "putting himself in harms way" of violent racists.

It's the exact same thing.

A criminal looks for a victim and sees a person with a bullseye on his head and you are saying that that potential victim is responsible for said bullseye.

If that isn't your point, then I have no clue what your point is.
Why else would you have mentioned it, if the clothes he / she wears is not relevant to the crime being committed?

But I would like to ask you something. How do you know that in the time of Muhammed those men were barbaric

I did not say that I know this

How do you know that in the time of Muhammed those men were barbaric, that if that is the case it is understandable etc?

I did not say that it is understandable

And you think rape has anything to do with showing a "nose" or another part of the body like a face or head?

Click to expand...

NO.

I just describe what was mentioned in a post here, and what I have heard "some" Imams tell us (the once who listen to them)

firedragon said:

Why are you speaking about Muslims like that mate?

Click to expand...

I don't speak about Muslims like that. I specified "some" Muslims who talk like that. I just repeated these facts.

firedragon said:

Didnt you read about the Nirbhaya case in India?

I did not see this mentioned in the OP, otherwise I would have reacted the same (substituting Muslim with Hindu of course)

firedragon said:

Do you remember what those guys said about the girl being bold enough to be roaming around at that time and she deserved to be raped? Were they all Muslims?

Again, start a thread about this, and I will say that this is bad and Adharmic behavior, unworthy of a true Hindu

firedragon said:

It is very difficult to let go of prejudices isn't it my friend?

Click to expand...

Not for me.

I just shared my opinion about these facts. That has nothing to do with prejudices. Facts are facts. I did not generalize in my reply

That if or when we practice a religious teaching our goal is to serve God, but as long we are human we must be good to every human being.

I can not "rule" over a woman just because she is a woman, in my understanding only God can tell us what to do og not.

You are very welcome to clarify your point so that I can see how I misunderstood it and instead understand it correctly.

But I have this feeling that you are not going to bother.

As a muslim i often hear non muslims complaining about muslim woman wearing hijab.

But why is it no problem when a western female cover her head with a scarf?

Why the big harasment of islam when if we look at history mostly all females was cocering up their hair. Especially within religious practice.

Sometimes non muslims even know why islam still practice use of hijab for female? Did you know that hijab means to be modest both for male and females?

I have no problem with anything people choose to wear as long as they are the one making the choice.

Perhaps, so much of the Muslim violence seen in the past has generated hate from some and the concern of clothing is not really what it's all about. In time, everyone will realize the price for hate is always too high. Returning Unconditional Love is the only answer for that is the only time they will be listening.

Sexual attraction is a gift from God. It should never be discarded as evil or sinful. My personal opinion is that Perfection should never be covered or hidden.

Be who you must! It's a part of the plan!! As long as it's one's free choice, the learning and growth moving forward will follow.

That's what I see. It's very clear!!
