Re: A veil doesn't mean 'oppressed'
IMO, hijab does not mean that women are oppressed, but these long defensive articles don't help as much to kill the myth. The best answer to those who think that hijab and jalbab are signs of opression is when muslim women excel in different fields of science, study, government, raising kids, engineering, creativity, arts, whatever, and show to the world that they are as much part of the productive elements of the society as men.
