And plenty of Muslims would like the option to not wear a hijab or something comparable without facing repercussions from their family or communities. Because that's the point: A hijab in itself is not a bad thing UNLESS the choice to wear it does not lie with the individual woman. And traditionally and in many communities, that's not the case.

No woman anywhere should be forced to wear something, or forbidden to wear something. Though it gets me that no one seems particularly mindful of those women who have no choice but to wear the hajib. I've seen the argument too many times that some women in Saudi Arabia choose to wear the hajib because it has meaning for them as an excuse to dismiss those women in Saudi Arabia and other places who do not want to be forced to wear something.

As for not being required to not drive a car, great, if a woman has access to men who are willing to drive her wherever she needs, but I'm sure there's plenty of poor women who don't have that luxury, or whose lives would be improved if they had access to their own vehicles and could legally drive them.

There's a tendency to dismiss the unwilling women of the communities that practice a stricter interpretation of Sharia because some women do prefer for whatever reasons, or because some communities are more progressive or modern.
