Some Christian and Jewish denominations require women to wear head coverings, even in public. They aren’t considered oppressed, but if it’s a Muslim woman who chooses to wear the hijab, she’s considered oppressed. Sorry, That’s being hypocritical.

Are you kidding? Christianity is the most criticized religion in the west by any progressive and has been relegated to a side show completely separated from the state. By the way, which Christians make women wear headscarf for modesty reason.

Actually several make them wear head coverings, Quaker, Anabatists, Albanian Orthodox, Christians in Russia, Ukraine, India, and South Korea.

Wear head coverings in church, not in normal life.

Why don’t ppl get that? It’s the first thing Duarte said in this thread, but it just gets ignored. Ppl move the goal post when they have no argument.

He gets it, but since it’s not Islamic, he chooses to discount. My wife and her family wear the hijab by choice and often go out in public without. Now that being said the government passing laws requiring or prohibiting is oppression. It should be the woman’s choice.

That’s great for your wife and her family. Millions of other women are not
#FreeFromHijab. That’s the issue. And, as Duarte said, theres a huge difference between: -choosing to wear religiously prescribed modesty clothing -celebrating religiously prescribed modesty clothing6 replies 0 retweets 12 likes -

I pointed out another group that requires religious head coverings outside the church, that same group also has a latticework to separate men and women during services.

So what? How is that useful? Breast cancer is bad So is prostate cancer Whoopty doo. You found another example. That does nothing to counter the original point.

Those faiths have the same requirement to wear, but those women aren’t called oppressed because of the required head coverings.
