Its not so much the turban, its the person who wears it, you should be confident and proud, have social skills that allow you to talk in a way that beams confidence and reflects a positive personality.

If you can express yourself in such a way then why should your turban hold you back in any way?

I think BBC Asian Network is biased towards sikhs i dont think discussions like this are constructive in any way.............what about young sikhs and older sikhs who getting into sikhi how would they feel when they hear comments like ''is it attractive'' or ''will a woman ever marry a sikh in a turban'' i wouldnt be suprised if a couple of singhs got depressed over this issue..........

If people do it of their own free will then there is no problem. The fact the people have chosen to do this makes them confident and assured. It is when people are compelled that you often get them feeling uncomfortable with wearing a turban.

Bottom line - People should not pressure anyone in anyway.

iv only recently started wearing a turban to uni, and it makes me feel so proud. i am honestly not treated any differently from how i used to be treated, infact if anything people show me more respect. It is the person, not the turban.

Its true that if you wear a turban because you want to it is much better than just by it being forced on you......i mean if you decided to wear it, it will make you more proud, confident and you will know why you are wearing it.Also, sikh women wear turbans how do you think it makes them feel.......BUT all im saying is comments like ''is it attractive'' or ''does it stop you from getting a girl'' are they really helpful! and I know this is a big issue so is the BBC Asian Network run by muslims and Hindus the best way to tackle this issue!
