At first I thought the title was mocking. But I guess it veers more on the genuine side? Anyway, from a more middle-class perspective, it's a mockery to call these women oppressed in any way. They even apparently have some self-irony about their peculiar lifestyle, so it's not like they are psychologically trapped in this particular world. Even after having lived in it so long. I shouldn't be so sensitive, though. The author is an anthropologist and I guess that's just how they write on these subjects.
