Whether you would choose to go there or not - is besides the point. The point is - you couldn't - not safely.
We make consessions all the time - ie allowing them to build Mosques, teaching their religion in our schools, introducing anti-discriminatory laws - the list goes on.
A lot of Muslims are quite vocal about their disapproval of our culture and lifestyle. For instance - they make no secret of the fact they don't approve of the freedoms British women have. If they could force the issue - they would.
Muslim women refuse to remove their full burkas in places like schools and colleges - which causes issues for us - no respect for our culture and laws. But our women would be forced to cover up in their country - whether we wanted to or not - no respect for our wishes.
They always expect us to do the accomodating.
