Would they choose to wear a hijab if that religion did not exist? Looking at the rest of the world, the answer is a resounding “no.”

I imagine because in, “civilized” nations… women are just sexual objects. Watch the ads, the movies, the cartoons, the magazines… all industries pertaining to women are sexualized. You must do this, that, wear this, that in order to be acceptable.

I like how you wrote “civilized” as if I made some comment disparaging primarily Muslim nations. By “the rest of the world”, I simply meant those who aren’t pressured by their culture to wear head scarves.

Actually, I believe Muslim majority nations are more civilized than civilizations with Democracy. Democracy ultimately divides and creates disgruntled citizens. I quoted civilized in my initial comment as a sarcasm.

I am sorry, but please educate yourself before making such nonsensical statements. Veiling has been a part of culture and religion outside of Islam for millennia. And if you look at the second source, you’ll see that veiling also has been a mean of liberation and that banning it is part of a long history of oppressing women
