French person here : hypothetical and performative ESPECIALLY considering how France / French people treat Muslims. Donโt get me started on how the treat Muslim women and those who wear hidjab.
As an Iranian, I feel that comments like this distract and deflect. The issue for Iranian women is compulsory hijab (among other oppressions). We're not talking about the right of women in other countries to wear the hijab. This is about the right of women in Iran to NOT wear the hijab and the oppression that is attendant to the forced wearing of it--the oppression of bodily autonomy, the fear of not complying perfectly, the fear of the morality police and state-sanctioned violence
