Some do, some don't; in any case, a woman in France whose husband will not let her go out without covering up now doesn't get to go out at all - something that was sold on the idea of liberating women is having the opposite effect. And any case, a lot of women make the choice to dress like that. It's weird, I know: women having minds of their own, but there it is.
France and Iran: both telling women how they can and can't dress.

Yes: but do women ever want to do that? We stop short of allowing sexual organs to be displayed: which, it can be argued, is an infringement of personal rights: but it is also accepted by pretty much everyone. The ban on Muslim clothing (and let's not kid ourselves that this is a ban on religious clothing) is not universally accepted; and what France is doing anyway is the equivalent of forcing women either to go to the supermarket topless, or not go at all.

I have just come back from Spain where notices such as "Shirtless not allowed" in restaurants That is just the choice of the owners, what Muslim women are allowed to wear is just down to control by their menfolk

Sometimes, but usually not: women in the west usually choose for themselves. And, as I said before, if men won't let women out without covering up, then in France the women don't get to go out at all.

Let the refugees die, then. Sod them.
(This has nothing to do with women being made to undress on a beach because they're wearing the wrong kind of clothing.)

There is no connection, unless you think all Muslims are connected with terrorism.

Who would have thought that IS terrorists would have the imagination to disguise themselves as women These were caught trying to escape from Mosul
Actually some of us have worried about this

I'll have to dob in the woman next door, then.
(Two out of a million?)
Though why not just walk out with all the other men who have left?
