When we talk about hijab, women get all the attention. A little too much attention. But men have hijab too! Male hijab doesn't cover up as much as female hijab, but it is still important. We obsess so much on what Muslim women shouldn't be wearing and doing out of modesty that we fail to address the violations of male hijab that are becoming more and more common.
Every Friday at the mosque, I cant tell you how many men are sitting their with their midriff, underwear and even butt-crack exposed. No one ever complains of it to the imam and no one looks down on the offending person for not complying with male hijab. If a woman has some hair peaking under her hijab, or has her sleeves rolled up, we instantly judge her level of religiosity (somewhere between mild and medium, but definitely not strong). Come on people, we cant let the brothers get away with it so easily!
