Hijab

Salman Rushdie was on the telly the other night! He had previous said that the Muslin veil sucked! Now, was he referring to the male big toe burka (burqa)? It has been rumoured that some men wear it as a badge of honour not because of some Islamic law or set of rules but as a symbol of Islamic pride. Now, does the big toe really choose this or is it forced upon by the little toes as a means of not provoking a sexual response? Or, dare I say, is it really that underneath, there is a grotesque mutant toe which must be hidden from view for fear of shame? Now there's a riddle for you!
