    From my standpoint we punish the state first

    And I’m saying if that’s the case, bar them from competing entirely until they allow women to compete without a hijab. Because, again, otherwise you’re only punishing the women. Which would also discourage other women from athletic competition since they know that the men will never be punished for these sorts of things.

    Also, don’t you think women on those teams should be given the choice rather than be forced to either wear them or not wear them?

      I’d bar them completely if it’s for me to decide, because it’s indeed counter-intuitive to ban women from a state where sportswomen are a rare occasion. Or ban only their men from them? Hugh, lmao. That’s why no one gives me such power.

      Your second paragraph adresses this exact junction of muslimhood and feminism. It’s weird for me, a drunk and uncultured man, to decide something for women, and then muslim women, but I feel it’s perceived differently in the western and eastern perspectives.
