I think most men who want to control their women on such a level, religious or not, hijab or not (control and oppression of women exists in many forms), are hugely insecure. Women are gorgeous, beautiful beings and most of us men are fucking gross. The control is the fear that, if she had the freedom to choose for herself, she'd have any man she wants and then some, because she can.
The hijab is fucking gross.
I think that this is one of those cases where Muhammad probably had a point back when he was alive, but unfortunately, Muhammad’s been dead for 1387 years, things have changed, and it’s reached the point where it seems many believe a woman who goes around with any more of her body exposed than is absolutely necessary is asking to be raped. Come the fuck on, if I, a foot fetishist with a crippling fear of what might happen if I tell any at any girl who’s decided to expose her pretty feet in sandals that I think they’re beautiful, can go around without sexually assaulting anyone, it shouldn’t be that hard.
