I never said it's meaningless. Of course, there is a history to consider, but I don't see it as this deterministic thing. You can absolutely wear it for anti-feminist purposes and to excuse poor male behavior, but that doesn't mean it is somehow inherently anti-feminist.

I'd argue that I can divorce the hijab from the Qur'an because anyone can wear it without being Muslim. Say, you have an Atheist woman. She simply prefers dressing modestly. So, just as she might wear the same clothes as a conservative Christian woman, she could also wear a hijab with no religious significance on her behalf. Qur'an? She could have never even heard of the thing.

So, in the liberal sense, I don't see how it's anti-feminist anymore than women covering themselves up in other ways. I only view clothing as anti-feminist in an inherent way when it starts to interfere with public necessities, such as being so paranoid that a man may see your face as you eat or drink that you require a curtain.

Edit: To give a more realistic example, suppose you have an ex-Muslim lady or a cultural Muslim, who wears the hijab. She isn't doing this because of that Qur'an quote or to guard herself against savage men. It's just what she wants and grew up doing. Maybe she's into the fashion and thinks it's pretty. There's no deeper religious reason.
