I think it's BS. I have muslim friends who think wearing a tink top (spelling?) is degrading and that the burka "protects" them and people like them for who they are rather than what they look like.

Of course, I believe some women would rather not wear it. Rather than banishing it, give them the freedom of wearing it or not.

although some women don't have the choice. (abusive husbands)

Although in their countries, it is not seen as abusive.

man it's complicated.
I find it odd. The French are kind of saying we are defending these women's rights by forcing them not to wear burkas, even if they want to wear them. It is a bit nonsensical. They are taking the non-secular thing a bit far I think.
