This is a bit of a trek to get from "the government shouldn't mandate what people wear" to suggesting I support all breadth of individualist arguments.
I suppose a certain amount of individualism under capitalism is in fact classist, racist, and exploitative, but removing any libertarian, self sufficiency nonsense and looking strictly at clothing and style and personality, people should be able to be who they are and who they want to be. I don't think this is a concept at odds with left wing economic systems.
I think we disagree that a headscarf in general is detrimental to society. I don't think it is, and you do think it is. Unfortunately, I have too many really cool empowered women examples that will sway me that outside of a theocracy there is anything bad about hijabs.
