Playboy Features a Hijabi Woman

Screen Shot 2016-09-29 at 10.19.14 AMNoor Tagouri, a reporter for Newsy, has made history as the first woman to wear a hijab in Playboy.

While there’s absolutely nothing racy about Tagouri’s photo, she has received some backlash. Here’s just a sample, from The Independent:

“I don’t see what there is to celebrate when a hijabi woman—member of an already maligned part of society—makes the ‘revolutionary’ choice to join forces with a sexist establishment that has debased other women by reducing them to sexual objects for generations.”

Despite this strong take, the majority of reactions we’ve seen have been supportive.
