The debate whether to ban or not to ban the Niqab is still an exclusively male-dominated privilege.

What causes a woman in Syria to be silent about a bruise, a broken rib, a psychological scar, and to be silent about her basic rights as a human being?
In Syria from birth, women are treated unequally by their parents. Male family members are raised to believe they are in charge of female affairs.
This socially constructed assumption varies on different levels depending on how ‘traditional’, ‘religious’, and ‘educated’ the culture of the family is.
In a typical traditional family, dividing and fixing the female and the male roles within the family creates a less cooperative family and escalates the imbalance of the family to a critical stage when the subjugated family bond turns into verbal, psychological, and physical violence practiced mostly by the male.
