Burqa
Also known as 'Afghani burqa,' modern-day usage refers to: "A tent-like cloak that completely drapes a woman’s body and face, with only a crocheted screen as an eye-piece. It has been worn by women to go out in public for almost a century or more in Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Bangladesh and parts of the Arabian peninsula." However, it is claimed that this common definition is incorrect, and actually should be referred to as "chadri" (a chador with mesh covering the face). It is an outer garment, "worn for the purpose of cloaking the entire body, worn over the usual daily clothing...and removed when a woman returns to her home." "The chadri covers the wearer's entire face except for a small region about the eyes, which is covered by a concealing net or grille, and the cap from which the material hangs is often decorated with gorgeous hand-embroidery... The garment is usually sewn from light materials, and requires many metres of material. Blue is a favourite colour for chadris, but saffron yellow and white are often common. The chadri was created by one of Afghanistan's rulers trying to stop anyone from seeing his wives' faces. He came up with the chadri, which became a sign of an upper class citizen; however, as times changed, the new government decided that chadris weren't modern enough and banned them. The upper class people then gave them to their servants. The chadris in those days were made out of silk and the mesh at the front was lace. Before the Taliban took power in Afghanistan, the chadri was infrequently worn in cities. While they were in power, the Taliban Regime required the wearing of a chadri in public," thus "It has come to be seen as symbol of the suppressive Taliban Regime." However many women chose to wear burqa for cultural, religious, or personal reasons. "Liberating Afghan women from the Burqa was a sub-text of the war against the Taliban. Although some Afghan women have discarded the Burqa, after the fall of Taliban, an overwhelming majority continue to wear it as a matter of choice and social norm."
The Urban Dictionary Mug
My coworkers see all the cups I order from you, and this one is already one of their faves
Just what I expected. Merchandise looked just like it did online. Showed my friends and even they loved the cup! Plan on ordering more merchandise from you guys. Thanks. KLDS
Astounding Mug. I found this Mug in a dark time, the time when I needed a mug the most. I went onto google.net and found this truly amazing piece of craftsmanship. Manny Heffley came out of my computer and started to gyrate, before hopping out completely and eating my asshole. It felts so good, I started shaking and moaning, rapidly convulsing on the floor. Manny Heffley slowly crawled into my, hiding in my womb in order to store his power for 12 months and evolve to the form of "Baby 2". Thank you, Urban Dictionary. This mug changed my life.
Looks great and quick delivery
very good quality, wasn’t broken or anything and was a good gag gift !
I gave it to her today. And she loved it said it was her to the T
The Printing wasn't very sharp, but it's good enough.
It was a surprise gift for someone and she absolutely loved it!
This was sent as a gift to my grandson, who lives in another state, so I never saw it. However I asked him as follows: "Just checking ... their request for a review shows an aquamarine mug ... it was supposed to be purple (eggplant, they called it). Was it purple?" Then he said: "It was purple! And thank you I love it haha Sent from my iPhone"
Shipment arrived quickly and in great condition. I know my custom mug will be a crowd pleaser when my girlfriend opens it up for Xmas.
Soaking is my favorite activity, glad I got a mug for it 😙
It DIDNT break :D
so happy you were able to put my unique word "Obergrossescheinehund" onto the new yellow mug. The yellow mug and black print make it easy for the words to be seen.
This is made by my friend i love it
Imagine not buying one of these. 🤢🗑🤡= non-buyer. Couldn't be me. 😎
It was the best thing I could have asked for
I mollywopped someone with it and it didn’t break. Nice
Product was as advertised and arrived pretty quickly too! The person loved their gift!
The "Pink Flamingo" colour with white text on a pink background is the best selection for this fine phrase mug. May I suggest you also correct the misspelling of "delightfully" in the default option for a timeless gift.
As always, a great gift.
