Why blame the women for something their mullahs force them to do? And what about those women who want to wear the garment? Boris Johnson is just the other side of the coin. IOW Muslim women have to obey some man's directive on what they wear.
"Literal interpretations of the veil, derived largely by Muslims ignorant of the true dictates of our own religion, are derived from cultural misogyny. Thus, with their bans on the niqab, neither France, nor Germany nor Denmark are impinging on religious freedom. Instead they are legislating anti-democratic cultural mores that do indeed repress women living within their societies."
