see, it is my immediate deduction from this very limited amount of information that an excuse to take the hijab off is the most obvious explanation:

A University of Michigan student was approached by a stranger who threatened to set her on fire with a lighter if she didn’t remove her hijab, police said.

The incident occurred between 5:30 and 7 p.m. on Friday just outside the campus in Ann Arbor. Police said the woman complied and left.

so, this university student took off the hijab between 5:30 and 7:00 on a friday night and left...perhaps to go to a party, or maybe a bar?

no. that's good. very good. i want to hear more stories like that. but, it perhaps underscores the incredible coercion in muslim families for women to adhere to the dress code, doesn't it?

i think that's the hidden issue, here.
