My girlfriend is Muslim. She doesn't wear a burka, but we know a number of women that do. They all choose to, and are fierce in their defense of it, as it is their choice.

Some Christian groups have their women dress up in long woolen grey dresses. Some are even forced to. I used to know a guy that wouldn't let his girlfriend wear a skirt because he thought it attracted unwarranted attention. This isn't a Muslim issue - it's a women's rights issue. Let's keep it along those lines.
