LinkIn Asia Iran Pakistan and other similar countries are also placed there
One of the major characters Yui is the god of the son
But I wanted to talk about his mother, who is wearing a niqab
From what I researched or learned apparently in some places it’s illegal to wear them, because of.. terrorism or sexism?
I agree that women should have to wear covering clothing if they don’t want to
However if they have a choice in it I feel like it’s okay

LinkYui’s mother doesn’t wear a niqab because of either the worry of other men or because she feels like she is forced to
She is a very old woman dating back to the creation of the world
From what I read in some beliefs the niqab is worn because it is believed it what was worn from the beginning of man and it is closer to god
The whole state of that part of the world had nothing to do with this I was planning on world building these characters and countries years ago

LinkMuslims and the Middle East is probably the least known topic I know about
I never met someone who was Muslim or from the Middle east irl and no one even acknowledges them here
So yeah I’m bare boning it rn and there is like NO rep I know from amercian media that goes into them
Religion and Race are two different things, I don’t want to represent the middle east as all being Muslim which I feel a lot of ppl where I live already assume

LinkIt’s like ppl can say oh it doesn’t matter what race someone is just write them as everyone else
NO Camren says no because I think race and culture does matter
I already rambled abt this before
Race and culture affects a lot of things about a person, the language you speak the way you are raised the stories you are told the clothes you wear E V E R Y T H I N G
If your just born in a void and gave european androgynous clothes and are just called Black or Latino or Asian yes you would probably all act the same and that’s cool but that’s not how the real world works
Not that fiction has to be the real world just in my opinion

LinkIf you want to make race based characters with no cultural aspects or differences yk what that’s okay I don’t think your racist for it and I don’t think your a bad person for doing it hell I did it
Not all my characters are exclusively based in there culture or race either
It’s just for my dragon world it’s different

LinkI’m so glad this isn’t a show or anything but if it was I’d need some people to come help me understand and take some creative liberties for me
My biggest struggle is wondering if I could put designs or accessories on a niqab or does it defeat the purpose of being modest and in gods image
CoolCatCamren[OP]
29.03.2024 10:25
LinkTweaking cus one side of me wants to be creative and add designs to this niqab but I also don’t want to missrepresent anything

Dream catchers are pretty but you don’t know THE YEARS I have slept w this dream catcher this is like the only thing from my childhood house I have

LinkIF I was talking about two guys kissing rn I bet ya’ll would eat it up
There are different niqab designs and you can make them from different fabrics and put these pin things on them
Also belly dancing is not considered sexual from where its originates, the largest audience for it is actually meant for women
But it’s more of an Egyptian thing rather than Saudi, which is where niqabs are more popular and who this character would probably be based off of
I really like how you go into so much detail with your ocs like this is so cool your characters are so cool
