It was an example of how hard it was to have freedom as a woman, so women eg, used convents to carve out some freedom.

But you don't know that this is what they want. How many Muslim women living in France do you know? Not scholars, working class.

it's pretty unfeminist to assume these women can't speak/think their own thoughts.
