I understand what you're saying but banning certain items of clothing (except for security reasons) is making "us" as "bad as them" Yes i believe oppressive clothing like the Burka are there to keep women under control but the way to change that is not to force women to take them off when they're probably not psychologically ready to do that instead to give them the choice to do so if they want to that they may not have in stricter Muslim countries.

But legally they already have the choice not to wear it

The only way to stop them being forced to wear it is to ban it.

I know that and they choose to wear it, maybe in a generation or so, women will be able to free themselves of it after living with other women in this society.

Your solution is to force them to stop wearing it, same thing as being forced to wear something.
