Hi Elisabeth: There are two separate issues here: the gender issue,
and the wider cultural issue.
I agree fully and more with you that it is women's bodies that are
sought to be controlled by *all* societies. We do so in very diverse
ways. Some societies demand that women be clad from head-to-toe
se.
Best wishes,
