    That’s not okay, which is why where are not and should not be any laws in our country regarding what to wear, what to read, what you are allowed to do with your body (as long as it doesn’t violate someone else’s or force them into violent, gory, or sexual situations)

    You hearing this, Christians? The USA isn’t here for you to make puritanical.

      The men forcing women to dress like this aren’t using the law to force them. Laws forbidding dressing like this are, theoretically, to protect them from being forced.

      • The treatment for this is not to outlaw the dress codes, rather to provide services that help people get away from abusive partners.

        So the stuff that women have been fighting for since the late 20th century. Also the stuff white Christian nationalists want to eliminate:
        ~ DV Shelters
        ~ Property rights for women
        ~ Employment gender equity
        ~ No fault divorce
        ~ Crisis counseling

          I’m in favor of all that, too.

          Plus, we all know that, whatever the theory, a lot of people just want to duck with Muslims.
