Womens freedom

Do you want to liberate women by talking about the way they dress? Doesn't it mean that you are yourself trapped with superficial views as you talk about freedom? The only way to liberate women is to provide them with education, critical thinking and social autonomy. With or without headscarf, they should be able to decide for themselves. If YOU, in the name of YOUR superficial idea of freedom, you reduce their freedom to your only right choice; you might have to stop patronising about freedom and start lecturing about dogmatism.
