    My point was more that more oppression is not the answer to oppression.

    Removing one of the ways someone is being oppressed doesn't sound oppressive to me

    I don’t deny that. But I posit that it matters not whether it’s a religion or a legislating body, telling women what they can or cannot wear is wrong and it is oppressive. If one must resort to the same tactics as the oppressors, what makes them any better?
