the young girls that you reference, would be … live a life in a barbaric, unequal society behind a burqa, with no ability to make career choices,”

The US is a barbaric, unequal society where 10 companies own everything. There's not really a compulsion to wear a burqa (which is a dubious premise). But an American has plenty of compulsions and limitations that are unique to them. Imagine if the young girls were required to stay in an abusive relationship if they wanted continued access to healthcare for a chronic illness or disability in a barbaric unequal society. That would be even worse than a burqa!
