Good. It's religious extremism. Ban all religious extremism, everywhere for every religion.

Define how a head covering is religious extremism, are nuns also extremists? Is the dali lama, the pope all religion extremists too? Did your brain leak out your head?

Fuck religion, it is oppression.

  1. You decide to be a nun, you don't decide to be a woman
  2. How many nuns would get stoned to death for not wearing a veil?

I think it is quite extreme to show how religious you are. Especially being so much culturally compelled, that they have to lie that they are willingly doing it or they'd be considered unpure, heretic, or a disgrace to the family.

And yes, same goes for every religion.

By dressing in islamic clothing and modesty is considered extreme to you? Are you okay?
