>Why the fcuk should women cover themselves because men biologically have urges and are attracted to the opposite sex physically? Isn't this on the man who can't control himself and avoid impure thoughts when he looks at another woman?

I believe a woman shouldn't feel a need to hide behind clothing because of biological urges males get. Men should be held accountable for their actions and emotions.

That's not the what covering up always does, though. Some people might do it out of fear, but others do it as self-identity. With the covering up, they cannot be compared to other women. Their breasts, stomach, legs, arms, amount of fat on their body, color of skin, birth marks, stretch marks, hair, really anything but their eyes can't be hold against them as something to label them with. They are simply themselves, their personality. They are given the power to express themselves by other methods than appearance.

Tamora Pierce, a wonderful female heroine author (and my favorite author) has two short stories in her book, Tortall and Other Lands: A collection of Tales that address this issue. In Elder Brother, it shows the view that you share. In The Hidden Girl, it shows a very enlightening opposing viewpoint on why a girl might want to wear something like a hijab. This female character is not weak. She is actually a feminist rebel for her people. She prefers to wear the hijab and says it gives her power. I recommend checking out both stories.
