Daily Herald: "Harper pulls photo exhibit upon Muslim protest"

The exhibit sounds as if it was in self-indulgent bad taste, women naked except for jibabs. I could almost sympathize with the Moslems on this if not for things such as the following:
Salma Habed, 20, of Hoffman Estates said some of the pieces continued with the stereotype that Muslim women are oppressed.

“We go to school. We have careers. It’s not like we’re oppressed like some people feel for some reason,” Habed said.
"For some reason"? How about the fact that domestic violence cases involving Muslims suggest the need for double standards to some people? (Hat tip: Dhimmi Watch)
