Doesn't have to be though. Plenty of Western women wear a hijab as religious expression. Full stop. Feminism includes respecting that, no?

How many are forced to wear "modest" clothing bc. of pressure from their family and religious leaders? Many (ex)Muslims complain about this.

Women are more likely to drive socially conservative ideas of how women shld dress.

Also to drive contempt for modesty. Same damn thing.

Contempt is for religious pressure against heterodoxy of thought and values. Modesty being forced on people is not good.

But saying hijab = oppression is reallllly over simplifying, and pushing a bigoted narrative.

I think the same thing when any woman complains of feeling oppressed by expectations of her dress if she can refuse. 1/2

But whether or not one is oppressed by women- only modesty codes or whether one chooses it, can still critique it.
