The Koran is pretty harsh on guys and the burqa is meant to protect women from guys who would turn into warebeasts if they saw them.
Degradation is a hallmark of many if not most religions which convince people that they are lowly, sinful, without self control, guilty for the sins of their forebears, and in need of salvation. Religion is marketed the same way beauty products are. "You're ugly and you stink, but don't worry, our product can fix you!"
