    Most women choose to wear hijab and are defending the right to do so.

    In democracies (and absence of family pressure) maybe, but in most of the world, I doubt it.

      And you know that because you spoke with so many of these women, or you know that because you think being from a white western country entitles you to know best for everyone in the world?

        Because I spoke with some of them, lived in different countries and my readings are not limited to information about my place of origin. What about you, do you come from a place that lets you know better about the world than mine, or your argument about having knowledge limited to your origin doesn’t apply to you?

        How many non-muslimic women wear hijabs because they like to?

        How would one even get the idea to wear a hijab at all if it weren’t for religion?

              That shows how ignorant you all are. Anything that covers the hair and neck is a hijab. You all delude yourself into believing it is some special kind of garnment or some special way it has to be put on. And that is because it has to fit your narrative of what you believe muslims are or how muslims life, with a lot of white supremacy sprinkled on it.

              https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hijab

              In modern usage, hijab (Arabic: حجاب, romanized: ḥijāb, pronounced [ħɪˈdʒaːb]) generally refers to various head coverings conventionally worn by many Muslim women.[1][2] It is similar to the tichel or snood worn by Orthodox Jewish women, certain headcoverings worn by some Christian women, such as the mantilla, apostolnik and wimple,[3][4] and the dupatta worn by many Hindu and Sikh women.[5][6][7] Whilst a hijab can come in many forms, it often specifically refers to a scarf wrapped around the head, covering the hair, neck and ears but leaving the face visible.

              Literally the first picture in the Wikipedia Article shows a women with her Hijab in a style that you could find women in eastern Europe to wear too.

        You don’t need to speak to a slave to know slavery is wrong.
