Religion is an excuse.Christianity also favours head covering by women and Must not talk inside church etc. But women do read bible lessons in church disobeying its content. In India as one sees the temples of prehistoric times, one sees women showing thier body with pride.Hinduism is the only religion which has women as gods.But in actual practise they kill women in womb itself. This social need to have MALE CHILD is throughout south asia.This has to be eradicated. It has nothing to do with religion.

'Islam' itself has less to do with women's oppression today as practices of being in Muslim households.But having said that I sometimes admire the status of women in other 'Muslim' cultures in places such as Turkey or Spain. Women in post-colonial developing countries in general face the problems that having less resources bring.
