What its like to be in someone elses shoes..#5
Imagine going outside and the burning hot sun beating on your back as you struggle to walk with the hot, heavy burqa on your back. You trip and fall because your burqa is so long, you accidentally scream, since you have spoken a soldier beats you. What have you done to deserve this??? it was the Soldiers fault in the first place to have fallen because of that heavy burqa, why is it happening to you??
Many women in Afghanistan and other countries of the world have to were these extremely heavy cloaks. They are tough to walk in and almost completely obstructs your view of things around you. These women are forced to were them by soldiers because they are older women. If i had to wear a burqa i would be very angry because i would need help walking and i like to see where I'm going. And the fact that they are very heavy that on a hot day they drag you down, you would never be able to go anywhere. It would be burning hot. Why are you forced to where them, the soldiers are horrible people who take over women's lives. Also women are not allowed to talk, if they do they would get beaten.
If i had to where a burqa and was not allowed to talk, i would be furious and very sad. I feel very bad for these women and i am glad that i am not in their shoes.
