Absolutely. Many of these women probably say they DON'T want to drive, or work, or indulge in any freedom at all. They may even read about the penalties for women caught driving in Islamic countries and nod approvingly ... of their own free will.

What I'm trying to say is that that kind of mentality really only comes from oppressive upbringing bordering on brainwashing. Women raised in a free and open environment don't gravitate towards an Islamic lifestyle. "I'm not Muslim, I just like wearing this thing, and not being allowed to do anything."

That's some serious BDSM play and they don't get a safeword.
