“Bí a ti nṣe ní ilé wa, ewọ ibòmíì”: “Our ways at  home, a taboo for others” — one man’s meat is another man’s poison.

Òwe yi fihàn wípé bí ọpọlọpọ ti sọ wípé imura Obìnrin Akọkọ ni ìlú America Michelle Obama (ni OSCAR 2013) ti dara tó, ewọ ni ki obinrin Iran mura bẹ.  Awọn obinrin Iran nilati bo gbogbo ara pẹlu “Hijab” nitori wọn o gbọdọ rí irun, apá tàbí ẹsẹ obìnrin ni gbangba.

ENGLISH TRANSLATION

This Yoruba proverb: “Our ways at  home, a taboo for others”, shows that even though many people thought the First Lady Michelle Obama’s dressing for the Oscar was stunning, it might be a taboo for an Iranian woman to dress like that. Iranian women must cover all their bodies with “Hijab” because women’s hair, arms or legs must not be exposed in the public.
