So @StephenMcGann thinks this story explains why the burkha isn’t a problem. It doesn’t. Actually the key message in his thread is that the woman told him the happiest moment in her entire life was when the wind whipped up her burkha and she felt the wind on her face.https://twitter.com/StephenMcGann/status/1026853470559711234 …

Do you actually talk (and listen) to them, or do you lecture them in your usual haughty manner?
-
I’ve interviewed - at great length - dozens of Muslim women who wear the burkha and niqab. None of them has persuaded me. Your manner, by the way, leaves a lot to be desired.
-
You are taking the view that all Muslim women who wear the burka/niqab are victims who are coerced into covering up against their will, whereas the truth is more varied (as I think Stephen's thread highlighted so well).

Lecture, because she didn’t really listen to the essence of the thread.
