Some Muslim women are also compelled not to wear the hijab. You can always find a group of people compelled to do just about anything.
"Symbol of oppression" is a purely subjective sentence you can keep repeating all day long. Similarly one can simply declare "miniskirts reflect moral decadence" which is subjective too. It's just your word against mine.
I would be perfectly happy if there was NO compulsion in how people dress. And I agree - telling women that they cannot wear the hijab is every bit as oppressive as forcing them to wear it.
