I don't think banning the burka is the way to go about it, but if it got banned in Egypt and Turkey I'm inclined to think there must be something seriously wrong about it...

If it's about women oppression, and this oppression is widespread, perhaps it would be better to work from that angle. Oppression of any kind should not be allowed in Europe.

how do you prove oppression when the "victim" is happy and doesnt consider herself as a victim ... meaning, according to me, she is NOT a victim ?

Many people who suffer domestic violence still want to be with their abusive partners... But they're still victims, and domestic violence is still a crime no matter whether others enjoy it or not.

hum ... problem is you need the agreement of the "victim". If she is not enought "openminded" to recognise herselve as a victim because she overfears or the accepts her situation then ... it is dead IMO

In clear, even if domestic violence is a problem quite difficult to deal with. Burqa is even harder.

 

I agree with your point that it's hard to prove. I was replying more to the part I bolded now in your previous post ^.
