“Girls as young as 5 are being forced to wear the hijab” Where is the data & proof? Have surveys been done? Records of phone calls to Childline? If you make a claim, the burden of proof is on you to substantiate it. Islamophobic slogans & soundbites are not a form of evidence

“The girls are not being given a choice by their parents” Parents choose and encourage lots of things for their children: – What they eat. – How they dress. – What school they go to. – What they are allowed to watch on TV. – What time they have to be home.

“The hijab sexualises these young girls” If that’s the first thought that comes to you, then perhaps it is you that has become perverted and it’s YOU that sexualises and fetishizes these things. What Muslim girl at 5 or 7 has become sexualised as a result of wearing a scarf?
