[quote=Anonymous]I'm not really seeing Islamaphobia on this thread except perhaps the remarks about Aisha and Khadija, and those appear to have been made by a Muslim. Everyone else is sticking to the story that 1) the Quran does not require the hijab and 2) women who wear it have been brainwashed (or forced) into doing so, and 3) the hijab is used as an instrument to suppress women, often as an element of political Islam. There are plenty of Muslims who hold these views, two of whom are the authors of the article OP posted. And it can be argued that those expressing these views are actually Islamophiles who are chagrined at the way Islam has been distorted to make the hijab in essence the sixth pillar of Islam.[/quote]
