I can understand her indignance follow a Muslim not shaking her hand on the ground she was a woman. That may be the custom where he lives but it is not the custom in the Netherlands or indeed, here. I understand the need to be tolerant and accommodating to other minority customs and practices but where they conflict with the host countyââ‚Ã⠀šÃ‚¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢s customs then I feel the immigrants should acquiesce. Whether this applies to the wearing of Burkas is tricky. You could argue that security could be compromised in places as the identity is covered but I think this is linked to her annoyance of how those particular Muslims place women in the pecking order (maybe not the best expression) following the hand shaking episodeââ‚à ‚¬Ã‚¦.
