You support mass oppression and claim to be concerned about opression of women?

I doubt your sincerity about that and the rest of your arguments.

No, I don't think that going out of our way to "liberate" people who are just going to immediately vote for theocratic government is doing anything to reduce oppression. Democracy does not inherently reduce oppression, in this case it just enables oppression by a majority which is often even more aggressive than the system that preceded it.
