It's often an "environmental" issue: in Muslim countries, the hijab et al, are symbols of collective control of the individual; in the West, adult women wearing these articles are expressing their identity. The key difference is that the latter group can choose to remove them.
I was born and raised in the West (and there are thousands like me) and I was forced to wear it and I could not take it off. A girl in Canada was killed for not wearing it.
