A little while ago a picture of some women from Sweden's "feminist government"

Yes, I agree with that. My point was that I think the imposition is based more on cultural grounds than religious grounds. I've always suspected that Muslim women cover up largely because historically their countries have been violent, uncivilized places where attractive women are a pretty good target.

I think you're staggeringly naive.

But here's what we also know. If every Muslim in the world woke up one morning with the realisation that their holy book that preaches female modesty is man-made bull****, then after a few years of of guilt-free lusting and w*nking over exposed female ankles, the 'cultural' imperative for women to dress modestly would disappear.
