France to ban female students from wearing abayas in state schools
bbc.com
Pupils will be banned from wearing abayas, loose-fitting full-length robes worn by some Muslim women, in France's state-run schools, the education minister has said.
The rule will be applied as soon as the new school year starts on 4 September.
France has a strict ban on religious signs in state schools and government buildings, arguing that they violate secular laws.
Wearing a headscarf has been banned since 2004 in state-run schools.

Nope. You aren't allowed to have religious shit on you in general public in france.
Yeah and that's fucked up and oppressive
No its the opposite.
Nah you just agree with the oppression
You're like a Trump supporter in the US talking about "freedom" but then getting angry at trans people. Your side even uses the same arguments - "they don't have the right to teach their children to be this way!"
It's all oppression.
This. The whole point of freedom is that every person gets to choose for themselves, and the government should be preserving that choice and limiting elements that take choice away. It's morally reprehensible to support choice only when it's choices that you agree with, that's how state religions became a thing in the first place.
You'll be in for quite the surprise when you learn how these fundamentalist muslims think about trans rights
Im pretty sure I can advocate for freedom for everyone everywhere and not run afoul of any hypocrisy, because I'm an adult capable of thinking.
Yeah you sure can advocate for people to be free to hate trans people and indoctrinate their children with it. You can sleep easy
Force them to wear some different clothes, that will make them tolerate trans people more.
Seeing where this comment thread originated: do you believe Trump supporters will stop hating trans people faster if we allow them to wear their religious uniforms?
I don't think there's a law against MAGA hats.
Yes people are allowed to hate anyone they want. What they're not allowed to do is act on that hate.
So you want to have people teach their kids to hate and promote violence and then you're going to stop them when they physically act on it. Seems to me you want to sit on your high horse while the world around you gets worse
No
