No doubt that is one reason. The other is indoctrination. The percentage of women doing so due to 'freedom of choice' is questionable.

As we have witnessed very recently some Muslim women also hold extremist views and the tiny minority who do actually 'choose' to should not have their 'rights' superseed the equality laws of the country they choose to live in.

But that's true of all religious activity, across all religions. It's certainly not a "Muslim issue" so it grates on me when people want to pick and choose like that.

I personally would like to see ALL religion go the way of the dodo. Or the dragon, perhaps, as dodos did actually exist once. But that's not really relevant when it comes to discussing specific indoctrinations and belief systems. If you are against indoctrination, you should be equally opposed to all organised religions.
