Original Note:
Post is misleading. In many places, donning a hijab is not a ‘personal choice’ Wearing a veil, or hijab, is mandatory in Iran, Afghanistan, and at the Gaza schools. In Somalia, uncovered women are harassed. Also, a few countries place restrictions on wearing them in public. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islamic_veiling_practices_by_country
