So are headscarves for non-religious women going to be banned too? What about other modest clothing?

    Are headscarves for men going to be banned?

    I’m really curious to see what ends up getting caught in these laws.

    I assumed those were going to be banned in religious grounds too.

    No, I just mean just a bearded hipster dude with a piece of cloth on his head looking all groovy and shit.

    These bans are making someone choose between their religious convictions and employment.

    Its not a real choice. It is meant to reduce the number of people of certain religious affiliations from public workplaces aka ban them.

    Consider if the "choice" given women was between presenting male and giving up their jobs. Or not to be considered for a job. It would in effect ban women because they would either have to give up their gender identity at least for the duration of the work or not work there.

    Likewise here it would be allowed to make the denunciation of ones religious convictions a job requirement. It's atrocious.

    It's stupid. I agree.

    If an Islam woman not in hijab starts wearing headscarves everyday just as a fashion anyway, theoretically it's not a religious whatever. So what's the point those far right idiots are making.
