Many people take issue with the face coverings because it’s generally seen as a restriction imposed on women by men.

I think it's more that it upsets a norm : you see and identify the person you are interacting through their face.

The fun part is when it's an excuse to oppress religious minorities, and isn't just about covering the face, but any variation of the religious outfit, even when it only covers their hair.

Especially when you look at old portraits, and most of the non-noble women had their heads covered. You look at nuns, you look at the Virgin Mary, they all have their heads covered.

Religious Jews, heads covered.

When muslims do it, we have to end this horrid oppression!
