It is our duty as feminists to protect and respect women in Hijabs

[fiercefatfeminist]

Now. More. Than. Ever.

[princeoftheplayground]

Question: if I see someone pull off a Hijab, what should I do? I know there are reasons they are worn so I want to if i should stand in between them and who did this, should i protect them from view somehow, or something else? This has been happening a lot so I feel it’s something everyone needs to know.

[protectnevillelongbottom]

Good question! I cannot correctly and effectively answer, as I am a white, non-Muslim person; however, I will reblog in case any of my followers can answer. 

[inquisitivespirit]

I asked my Hijabi friend, so here’s one Hijabi’s answer: 

“my opinion is, definitely try cover them or give them something to cover themselves with. And perhaps shoo off the person, without putting oneself in danger! God forbid, if that happened to me, I would like someone to come and comfort me and give me something to cover my hair with and then help me report it to the cops “

(Followers, if any of you are hijabi and would like to expand on this answer or offer alternatives, please do.)

[scifibi77-deactivated20190412]

If u see it happen to 1 of us, pls cover our head + hair with a coat or shawl or any piece of cloth, while hugging us in comfort. Please don’t get hurt by lashing out @ the perpetrators in any way, coz if they dare to do that, they’re probably too far gone in their own hatred to listen to any reason. Much love + Thank You to anyone who supports us.

[meanieyards]

yes !! everything said here is important af. if you see someone pull off a girl’s hijab immediately cover her hair and provide comfort. don’t talk to the perpetrator but try to get the woman out of there if you can. maybe if you have a scarf on you at the time give it to her so she can wear it until she’s alone and can replace her hijab. please please protect muslim girls because we already had it hard before donald trump became president and now its gonna be worse with people going around thinking their violence and cruelty is justified 

[hollowedskin]

for my other white ppl who might have a hard time, it’s my understanding that a hijab is like a major item of clothing, not an accessory like a hat or a scarf. so think abt it more like if someone just ripped someone’s shirt or skirt off. u don’t want to be left there exposed or have to walk home without it.

everyone, even outside America needs to protect our Muslim sisters in these times.

[quadriparesis-deactivated201908]

as a man, what would be the best thing to do? should i turn my head and avoid looking at their hair? can i still offer a jacket or something similar?

[wear-it-like-armour-bastard]

^I’m hoping someone has an answer islamaphpbia is on the rise in my town and I want to be a good male non Muslim ally

[soul-angelos-deactivated2023102]

For men, yes please, we would prefer it if you avoided looking at our hair, and if we don’t have something to substitute as a hijab at that moment, anything you could lend us, a jacket, etc, would be very appreciated.

Also, since most girls avoid physical contact with men they’re not related to, please do not hug them, but rather shoo the offender away if you can, or at least escort the girl to a safe place. You can still offer words of encouragement and support. Furthermore, understand that the victim may not be very welcoming towards you because she’ll obviously be shaken, and won’t know where you are coming from. If that’s the case, please still give her something to cover herself (hijab is very important, think of it as someone ripping your shirt off) and stand some distance away until you are sure she’s in safe hands.

Thank you so much for your support, we really appreciate it, god bless all of you.

[official-lucifers-child]

There’s many reason why I always have a flannel on me, and this is one of them.

Just the other day I gave it to a kind hijabi girl at a cafe because some asshole reached across the counter and ripped her hijab off, saying that she’s now “free” from it

if you’re ever scared you’re not a good person, remember that bad people don’t care about being better 

[pla-a-nt-deactivated20181018]

This is actually very important, so I’m gonna hit that reblog button again

[latosblog]

The reason people give up so fast is because they tend to look at how far they still have to go instead of how far they’ve come. You got this shit!

Yes.

When we were kids, we used to ask millions of questions, do anything that we could think of, we used to be adventurous. I realized that the more we grow up, the more we lose this side of us. We stop dreaming as big, because some say it's not rational. It's not right. Growing up means having more responsabilities, that's true. But it never meant that we needed to stop believing in our goals, in ourselves. We say the word 'no' way too often, finding reasons to convince ourselves that it was the right thing to do. We say no to adventures. We stopped challenging ourselves. Well. We are wrong. There's nothing more fulfilling than putting yourself out of your comfort zone. Try new stuff. Push your limits. Do something you always wanted to do. Say what you think. Be true to yourself. Be daring. Look back at the child you once were. The one who did everything. The one who played in the dirt, who laughed all day, who learned by asking, and not by second guessing. And you'll see how life will be better. Bring out the kid in you. Say yes.

All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

I changed.

It's my first year studying at university. It also means that I, for the first time, am living on my own, in my apartment. Therefore, my life has been quite different from the one I got used to. Apart from that, a ton of things has changed. In a fews months, I learned a lot about myself. I listen to different types of music which, if you would have asked me a year ago, I wouldn't even have thought of. The plan I made in my head for my career is getting stronger as the days goes by because I know what I want to do, and I know how I want to get there. For someone who has always been intrigued by the United States, I now find myself thinking about what it would look like if I go to England. Personality wise, I discovered a sort of motivation to do things instead of thinking about what would happen if I did them, which may sound pretentious, but, as a shy person, I really am proud about that fact. The greatest things from this year happened when I did a move, and it's really rewarding. I made a great friend by starting a conversation with this person a few months earlier. I found some kind of courage -which I wasn't even aware of- to talk to someone who I was attracted to. Now that brings me to the other stuff that has changed. I learned that I can fall in love, but that I can also feel heartbreak, which, is not great, but it's a part of life I guess, and, to be honest, I wouldn't have changed what I did, because, through that whole time, I learned that I can be daring, and I felt new feelings which I wouldn't have been able to in other cases. Through this school year, I felt great, bad, cool, and also sad, but, more importantly, I felt, and, it's what makes us human.

I am proud of myself, whatever happens, and you should be proud of you too.

Life is not about thinking about what could have happened if things went on differently, it's not about what you should have done, it's about seizing a moment, and making it the right one. It's about trying out new things, accepting yourself, loving yourself, and not comparing your situation to others, because it's just pointless, live your life through your eyes, through your point of view, because in the end, you are what matter.

Life doesn't stop for anybody.

Piano

Such a lovely instrument. It’s so elegant. I have played piano since I was 7 y.o. I think I will forever be in love with it. It can express so many things. It calms you, relaxes you, helps you to focus when studying, it can make you cry, make you smile...

The piano was THE instrument of the romantic movement in Europe between 1800 and 1900.

Because it can express so many things, a lot of composers (and not only the romantic ones) really loved to compose for the piano. The piano is also an instrument loved by jazz musicians and that’s why I find it so interesting. It can fit a lot of different styles of music.

I played different songs from various composers: Haendel, Chopin, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky but my favorite is Debussy. I study music at university so I am discovering a lot of composers, a lot of beautiful musics (but I really love Debussy). I wish I will discover many more magical musical pieces because I will never be tired of /the piano./playing the piano.

“ In a corner of my memory There’s a brown piano A corner of my childhood home There’s a brown piano “  -Suga (BTS) first love

This quote is from one of my favorite songs from BTS. Everytime I listen to it I have goose bumps. I can relate so much to this song. I recommend to every piano lover, music lover, or anyone passionate by something, to listen to it. Really.

Also you can listen here to the music I am currently working on.

My only true love is my piano.

Overthinking, not confident ?

Overthinking is the number 1 problem in my life. When I was younger, I didn’t even realize that I was really overthinking but now I cannot deny it. No matter what I’m doing, or what happened, in any kind of situations, I will think about it for hours and hours.

People around me sometimes tell me “don’t you think that you ask yourself too much questions? You think too much” and I’m like yeah I know but I can’t really control it. 

Let’s be real, when you have a crush on someone, it’s even harder not to think too much. You ask yourself what could happen if you talk to him, what would happen if you ignore him, if you say something and so much more.

I think the worst for me is that I think too much about things that don’t really matter. It’s kinda funny because I love spontaneity. But because I think too much, I don’t allow myself to be spontaneous. What if I say something and it’s stupid ? What if I put myself in an awkward situation? 

Like I said, I think that overthinking is my number 1 problem. But those past years, I realized that being surronded with people you love and feel comfortable with makes you overthink a little bit less. At least for me. 

But why do I think so much ? Maybe because I’m not confident enough to think that what I said or did was cool. I think that is the reason. There’s a quote that says “ I’m working ON myself, FOR myself, BY myself”. I like this quote. And I want to work ON myself because I want to, one day, be confident enough to not overthink everything. I want to work FOR myself because I want happiness and confidence. I want to work BY myself because I am my own problem and I want to be my own solution.

2017 memories

2017 has been an interesting year for me because a lot of things happened. I think it’s always important to remember what you’ve been through, ups and downs, to be sure to start 2018 well.

Like I said a lot happened in 2017. One of the main thing is that I graduated from high school ! It wasn’t always easy, I remember some really bad grades (mainly in maths) during the year, but I really worked hard and at the end, I graduated (I even got a good grade in math which was amazing for me, it was my best grade of the year in this class), my friends graduated too and we spent the best summer ever.

Talking about summer, 2017 was definitely my favorite summer so far. I almost spent my whole time with my friends. We were lucky, some of us had grand parents that lend us their houses, we went to the beach several times, we spent days and nights playing cards, laughing, talking about life and everything. To be honest, I was almost never at home. I think that one of the main reasons why we loved this summer (except from the fact that we were spending time with our best friends) is because we all knew that it was the last “easy” summer break we’ll have together. After this summer we all went to different universities, some of us far away from each other and even if we still are best friends right now, it’s hard to see each other. So we knew that it was the perfect time to really enjoy being with everyone.

One of my best memories from this summer is definitely the night where we went to the beach after eating at a restaurant. We didn’t have our swimsuit on but we wanted to go swimming so much (it was like midnight or 1 am) that we just took off our clothes and went swimming in our underwear. I will forever cherish this moment because it was just so spontaneous, so natural. This is the kind of moment where you realize how lucky you are.

In august I went to Spain with my best friend and her mom. We went there for 4 days, it was short but very cool. We went to barcelona and now I just want to go back there.

Another big thing happened to me this year. I turned 18 !

And last but not least. UNIVERSITY. And with it I left my parent’s house. Okay, actually I go back to my hometown on the weekends but still, I now live on my own, in my small appartment and let me tell you, that it’s a big change. -M

My impression of university

It’s my first year going to college. Well, university. I’m studying music there. And I wanted to share a little bit of my impressions of it. But first, I’m going to university in the south of France, so of course, my impressions may be different from yours if you are not in the same university or in the same country.

First, there is a lot of people. In my section we are really not a lot compared to some others sections. But in the university I can tell you there is a lot of people. 

It’s not highschool anymore, and teachers are going to expect from you to understand that. Some teacher will be really close to their students, some of them will never know your name. And if you think about it, it’s normal since some classes are in big amphitheaters, so you can guess that the teacher won’t ask your name because there are at least a hundred students.

If you don’t make friends really fast, it’s normal. I’m lucky because I met some people quickly but like I said in my section we are not a lot. It’s not always easy since there is a lot of people and you don’t always see the same persons. So don’t stress out, it’s okay.

Don’t be scared to read. A lot. Professors will give you a lot of references and it’s up to you to read those books or not. But if you have enough time do it, then do it. It will b worth it for the exam and for you personal culture.

More personal impressions :

Some classes are really interesting

Some classes are boring af. Trust me, sometimes you need a lot of motivation to go to class. But don’t forget your goal. 

I like the fact that we all love music. Obviously it’s what we are studying.

Everyone has different goals, but we all are studying the same things. So conversations with others students are really enriching. 

It’s december and we still have this fucking air conditioner instead of the heating system, I swear it’s cold in my amphitheater. 

EXAAAAAAMS I’m nervous about them. I got some exams in two weeks, and again after christmas vacations…I don’t like that.

Our teachers really want us to be more cultured, and make us open our eyes on the world. I really like that.

I can’t really give you a lot of advices since I have been going to University for only 4 months. But don’t give up. It is worth it.
