Why Do Muslim Women Wear Hijab?
(Hint: It is not to save us from sexually out-of-control men.)
Years ago I gave up wearing hijab for about three months. I stopped covering my hair. I gave up wearing the scarf. At first, it was glorious. My hair was… so free. And fun. I tried different hairstyles I would not normally do because they would not work under a scarf. It felt pretty. I felt normal.
