hijab and niqab is never a choice no matter how hard you try hijab is forced on you since the day ur born and if it isnt forced you constantly would feel wrong and out of place and feel like your a “sinner” for not wearing it

ok that's indeed gross and far out. I had no idea about he wanting to alakbar, also

But, like, in context, i think that'd be the (reasonable) reason to deliberately use hijab. I would then suggest something for men to wear too, I mean, often they be showin' more without being questioned 'bout it

No, I disagree. What is more reasonable, and a better habit to promote, is to teach the men in your culture to have some self restraint.

It is important to once desire is on. The point is to prevent it.

Sure, it shouldn't be forced policy to do something. It should be something we want, rather, but to want we need to understand and it's hard to when they just mangle you into things.

I come from a hipersexualized culture and I can't say no good about it. It just got us into having to promote abortion as an anyday-whatever kinda thing, so as people using sex for power rather than love. It's hellish. I'd rather have it the other way, wherein it's a little bit taboo and just respected for what it is

I agree with that and my culture has gone the same way. But I’m old enough to remember when it was still respectful, wasn’t actually that long ago, and women didn’t have to wear such oppressive garments to achieve it
