I am not sure if your post to me was meant to be petty or sardonic. If it was, perhaps you are unaware that I am a traditional Catholic. As such, I remain in full assent to the spiritual disciplines and traditions of the Church. I do not consider those practicing the Catholic religious traditions to be repressed. Did I say that?

Please tell me when Catholic women have been beaten, raped, and murdered upon removing their veils?

Please tell me where Catholic women have been forced to wear veils that obscure their vision when they drive, if they are allowed to drive at all?

Please tell me where Catholic women live in a veiled culture that prohibits them from leaving the house unaccompanied by a male or even going to school all together?

Please tell me where Catholic tradition prohibits a widowed woman from working to support her family yet allows that woman the dignity of begging for food on the street in her full hijab, or better yet, modestly prostituting herself to these same hypocrite Muslims so she can feed her children?

Be aware that these same hypocrites partake of the female flesh all the while condemning it. Perhaps if you consider these ideas you might grasp the point I was trying to make.
