I don't wish to disparage people's spiritual beliefs, but I'm sorry nobody should have to go around wearing anything like this, no matter what faith you come from. You should have the freedom to EXIST as yourself and show who you are. This niqab stuff is abuse.
What matters is that they can't get education and economic independence, who gives a shit about dress codes
To me forcing the girls to cover their faces is another shit thing done to them.
Yes, but it is a very minor shit thing. It is literally just aesthetic and all cultures have dress norms.
Forcing women to cover themselves up from head to toe is a bit more than just a "dress norm". Should be able to choose.
How is it different?
