Look hard enough and you can justify veiling women too. It's not bad, we're protecting them from the problems you people have in the West! It's wonderful. It's an act of compassion!
I could put forth evidence

I'am guessing you haven't been out much so let me give you some knowledge about this matter.
Women by their own rights as a true believer of her religion would by her decision cover up herself, if she does not have such a strong faith then that is okay. Also women are not to be forced and is considered as a sin if her husband/brother/father force her to cover up since it did not come from her own free will.
As for why women cover? Well to simplify it to a degree that a person would not understand for what reason a Muslim sister covers up, is that woman "Themselves" do not want to be viewed as s*x objects to men(darn!) , we have to interact with them in a mind-to-mind basis without involving sexual lust, since we all know men are perverts.
Now looking at it from a statistic view point:
Introduction:
According to the American Medical Association (1995), sexual violence, and rape in particular, is considered the most under-reported violent crime. The most common reasons given by victims for not reporting rapes are the belief that it is a personal or private matter, and that they fear reprisal from the assailant. A 2007 British government report says "Estimates from research suggest that between 75 and 95 percent of rape crimes are never reported to the police."
Firstly, as of 2014, lets take France as an example: Every year, about 5000 - 7000 of the rapes are gang rapes. Source: Tournantes: le calvaire de Nina et Stéphanie - L'EXPRESS". Lexpress.fr. Retrieved 2014-04-10.
Secondly, to not make this post a long post and get people bored as they are.
The 2012 UN Statistics for National Rape rate per 100,000 world wide is, keeping in mind that those are all Reported cases:
1)Sweden comes in at #1 in a whopping 665,000 rape cases.
2) U.S.A. comes in at #7 with a Rape rate of 266,000 reported rape cases per year.
3) U.A.E. comes in at #16 with a 60,000 rape cases per year.
4) Indonesia comes in at #18 with a 70,000 rape cases per year.
Where am I going with this? Well as you can see, rape cases within Muslim countries is very minimal comparing to Western civilized countries who preach about freedom rights in which in fact tie women down and hold them of there potential and just see them as s*x objects.
