Quote by Jean-Francois Cope

If you meet a woman in a burqa, she can't reply to your smile. It's a denial of identity.

Summary

This quote suggests that the act of wearing a burqa may hinder a person's ability to express themselves and engage in social interactions. By covering one's face, particularly for women, it implies the denial of their individuality and inhibits their ability to respond or communicate non-verbally. It highlights the potential consequences of certain clothing choices on personal expression and the limitations imposed on individuals who adhere to cultural or religious practices that require such attire.
