For every woman who chooses to wear the hijab there are at least 1000 others who are forced to wear it by their fathers, husbands, or their government.

hijab-wearing Muslim women are very well exerting agency in their dress.

If a defendant taking the stand automatically means that they’re incriminating themselves - as it does, according to your reasoning - why does that choice to testify exist at all?

It’s fundamentally unfair that the defense is not constrained from calling anybody they can ask to testify, yet the prosecution is constrained in who they can ask.
