I think you got it wrong,I guess it ment Muslim women should have freedom to chose non Muslims
I don't know why its so difficult for non muslims to understand this.
They think that somehow muslim women are being kept captive against their will.
Its not like that at all,
what an absurd thought!
Some women chose to follow the teachings of Islam. They believe in the prophets and the concept of God in Islam. They love Islam. Anyone who believes in that will then be considered a muslim.
It's the belief first sort and title of a Muslim second approach.
No body is stoping them from marrying non muslims.
They just don't want to! Because they love Islam, and they want their children to also know the beautiful message of Islam.
In the West, you don't have to be a muslim just because you were born into the religion. You can choose to live what ever kind of life you want. It’s easier to be independent here.
I know of some instances where kids who weren't taught Islam that well, went out of the fold of Islam. And began a life of pleasures and satiating their worldly desires. Some never returned, but many others did. For some teenagers it's just a temporary phase, eventually most will come back to Islam.
What do the Ignorants want?
They want the muslim women to be just like the rest. They want these "muslim" women to somehow believe in Islam but still go to bed with them, drink, eat pork and so on.
Well there are already women who might call them selves "muslim" who do all of that, fornicate, drink, eat pork. These women then obviously don't believe in the message of Islam. And at best, they are out of the fold of Islam. Perhaps one day they will come back into the fold. Inshallah.
But you can't have both. You can't change Islam, like you changed your religions to fit your desires. But what do is that you can choose to simply not believe in it if you don't want to. Be a non Muslim. Whats the problem with that?
Let people have their own beliefs and make their own choices.
Freedom of speech?
I believe in living a good, prosperous, and productive life. It's short as it is. Let's be nice and friendly to each other. Let's be intrigued by the differences, and learn from each other.
Yes you can choose to draw cartoons of the Prophets and offend muslims. Sure. I don't expect the ignorant to know.
Or
You can choose to live peacefully with each other. You can go to your bar on the weekends, eat and do what ever you like. But then when you see a muslim woman in Hijab, ask her why she wears it. And learn about it. Next time you can say hello to your muslim neighbour, and know that your muslim neighbour also has worldly desires just like you, because they are human too. But because of their faith, they control their desires. And they love it.
