And what does that “British culture” mean to an 18-year-old Muslim girl? The stereotype she draws is dismaying: a national taste for getting bladdered at nightclubs, an insistence that girls wear sexy, skimpy clothes, are judged solely on their looks and whether they’ll put out for boys. Actually, she seems to be rebelling against the same thing I have taught my daughter to rebel against.
Pointed in the right direction, she would make a good conservative.

The young lady's reasoning is typically teenage, but she's correct that there is much in modern Western society against which a young woman should take a stand.
Her main error is in identifying Islamic culture as something better.
