Hello, oppression.

So apparently the hijab (headscarf) in Muslim cultures is used to prevent men from looking at women with sexual intent, and respecting them for their religious devotion as opposed to their looks. And kay, I totally understand it's another perspective, and I totally respect their right to do it, and I definitely understand that there are different cultures than mine and all that, but .......... if they want to prevent men from looking at women with sexual intent, shouldn't that be more the mens' responsibility???? Why should the women be charged with responsibility for mens' actions? THAT IS FUCKING RIDICULOUS.
