But we allow these women, whether through choice or otherwise, to walk around in their equally repulsive getups praising female subjugation and inferiority in a country where women are considered equal to men, including by Law. It is intended to insult and take the piss. There are occasions when no one, including women, should be allowed to wear what they want if doing so can be considered offensive.

This is not about understanding, I understand, to say otherwise is simply an attempt to undermine my opinion. The facts are simply that there is a difference in opinion between us on how widespread such beliefs and practices are in the West.

With the increasing numbers of women parading our streets loudly shouting their beliefs that women are second-class citizens right through to the increasing number of attacks across the West, such evidence strongly suggests such people are considerably more than a tiny minority.

One minute you are suggesting these women are repressed and in the next breath you’re saying they are taking the piss, which one is it?

Nobody, and certainly no religion, should be held above criticism. That's just plain wrong but when someone repeatedly homes in on the “problems with Muslims” and characterise them on the actions of a small percentage of individuals or that matter, a few countries that have an obnoxious culture, people will start to suspect that person is ignorant on the subject, Islamophobic or both. Don’t get me wrong; critical assessment of belief systems should always be encouraged but let’s not generalise our views on the lowest common denominator.
