And I really, REALLY doubt the claim that many Muslim women go veiled because 'they want to appear modest'. I think it's much more likely that they go veiled because their patriarchal society is mind-wobblingly insecure.

And if they don't go veiled they'll be stoned.
This is a xenophobic argument-wannabe against Islam.
Stoning does not exist in the Quran as a sentence, the hardest sentence is flogging who has adultery 100 times only -this is literally mentioned in the Quran; 100 flogs only-.
It's a hard sentence, but it is not comparable to stoning; which is a Jewish sentence not Islamic:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stoning#Judaism
Quote:The crimes punishable by stoning were the following:
- Touching Mount Sinai while God was giving Moses the Ten Commandments, Exodus 19:13
- An ox that gores someone to death should be stoned, Exodus 21:28
- Breaking Sabbath, Numbers 15:32–36
- Giving one's "offspring" "to Molech" Leviticus 20:2-5
- Having a "familiar spirit" (or being a necromancer) or being a "wizard", Leviticus 20:27
- Enticing others to polytheism, Deuteronomy 13:7–11
- Cursing God, Leviticus 24:10–16
- Engaging in idolatry, Deuteronomy 17:2–7; or seducing others to do so, Deuteronomy 13:7–12
- "Rebellion" against parents Deuteronomy 21:18-21.
- Getting married as though a virgin, when not a virgin, Deuteronomy 22:13–21
- Sexual intercourse between a man and a woman engaged to another man in a town, since she did not cry out, Deuteronomy 22:23-24; both parties should be stoned to death.
- Forced sexual intercourse between a man and a woman engaged to another man in a field, where no one could hear her cries and save her, Deuteronomy 22:25-27; the man should be stoned.
Stoning is a Jewish sentence.
