I do actually it's just another form of religious indoctrination.

Even though it's by choice?

What about Sikh men who wear turbans? Are they oppressed?

Is it a choice? Or has it been taught?

It doesn't matter what religion it is, religiois uniform is generally unhealthy interference by religion into people's daily lives. Although I don't know enough about Sikh's to say if they have been told they are immodest and will drive the opposite sex to rape and madness if they don't wear it.

That seems quite naive as it is clear that when people are subject to both religous and cultural indoctrination from birth, with significant opposition to any deviation from such beliefs, it is extremely unlikely that 'choice' was ever a option in reality.
