Well mentally its no different from the christian or maybe judaistic views, that women has to submit to men 
But... well i guess if i assume right. Submit to god, have a wife and get on... I guess someone is ok with that .. if god is ok that is
Well like i am just against burka and niqab, if muslim women want to wear. hijab or other things aslong as it doesnt cover your whole face then i am ok. Its not because of dislike, its purely because of identity reason if you go to a bank or something, you need to have a face to identify with
But i dont personally mind it, but i am not 100% ok with it, since if the idea of being called a slut or hoe for not following what your parents tell you is awful. But i am sure there are some muslims who simply do it just because of their religion and not parents. But yeah its that authoritative stuff i have a problem with. Which is why i kinda see why some dont like it at all because then it can signal that its ok to use threats and stuff to keep female in line. Since its culture and traditions and religious supremacy that is the reason for this.
In my view, if a culture is bad then its better to have non culture at all.
