Except I poisted a link to a story that proves that some Muslim women wear the hijab for reasons that have nothing to do with religious oppression.

I have no idea what you are talking about. I do have extensive experince with victims of domestic violence. That is why I am able to read the story I linked and see that her decision had nothing to do with religious oppression.
I have no doubt that you gave her opinion no credence, but that was based on a sterotype lodged in your head and had nothing to do with what she actually said. That is the difference between you and me. I don't automatically judge a person on a stereotype. I actually listen to what they have to say and judge them on an individual basis. Here is the quote that convinced me that the author was not a victim of religios oppression.
"Wearing the hijab was not something I deliberately set out to do. It was something I unexpectedly stumbled upon as a twentysomething undergraduate, reading feminist literature and researching stories of women's lives in the sex industry"
You, on the other hand, can not provide a single quote from the story that would support your theory that not one single Muslim woman in the world is capable of thinking for herself and making a decision to wear hijab. You don't think you have to read or listen to anything they say because you already know more than everyone of them.
