Everytime this argument comes up in a slightly different way it drives me mental mainly because their argument is that it's wrong to tell woman they have to cover up. Especially when that argument belongs to a man who just can't see the irony in telling woman what to wear because it's wrong for those men to tell woman what to wear.

If they cared about woman at all they would care about education, access to reproductive healthcare, and elevating woman so they feel confident enough to choose their own outfits.
