Would you consider the hijab/burqa degrading to women and why?

RE: Would you consider the hijab/burqa degrading to women and why?
I think it's degrading to both men and women. It says to women that it's their fault (and sinful) if men lust after them, and it says to men that they cannot control themselves.

If a woman wants to wear it, that's her choice. But I think the concept is degrading nonetheless.
