How they fear disownment and abuse from their families and communities, worry about their lives as LGBT ex muslims in islamic and non islamic countries,how they are forced to wear a hijab/niqab and pray fast against their will and of course afraid of being abused and killed for going against islam.

Can we start applauding women that stop wearing the hijab because they never wanted it in the first place and were being forced to do so by an ideology? I keep seeing people applaud women for wearing it but never dare to speak out when it’s the other way around. People who put down the hijab are pretty damn brave, since not wearing hijab comes with pretty dire consequences, much more than the consequences that come with wearing it.

I was a child. An innocent young child who just wanted to run in the playground and feel like every other 3 year old. But I wasn’t a normal young child. Looking back, I feel disappointed in my primary school teachers and the fact that they never questioned me or picked up on the fact that I was being emotionally abused into wearing it.

As I grew up and started developing, the hijab itsef made me ashamed of my hair and even ny body. I would cover my breasts and arms as much as I could with parts of the hijab because I was ashamed. It was only after my 1st year at university that I realised I was away from my abusive, controlling family and I could reinvent myself.

It took me 20 years to build up the courage and confidence to take it off. It took me 20 years to take off my shackles and chains. But now, I am finally free. So fuck those people who tell me Hijab is not oppressive. Fuck those people who force children and women to wear it. And fuck those people who are so far up religion’s ass to realise how damaging they are to other humans.

Fuck Islam for telling me that if I didn’t cover up and wear hijab, I would burn in Hell for all eternity.

Fuck Islam for allowing me to be beat if I didn’t read Quran.

Fuck Islam for believing it’s a religion of peace when the Quran and Allah allows all this.
