What is the more common way to say "you're welcome" in French: “De rien” or “Pas de problème”?

“ je t’en prie/ je vous en prie” .It is polite.

“Pas de problème” is common and sounds uneducated. It’s often used though.

French etiquette simply would advise you not to answer.

Why do you think Islam oppresses women when Christianity clearly does it more?

If you want to answer to a person saying “merci” you can say also:

“c’est un plaisir” or “avec plaisir” “c’est mon plaisir” is polite.

“De rien” is not correct although it is often heard. Avoid it. It should be “Ce n’est rien”.

Why do women need to wear bras, in spite of the fact that the breasts are an integral part of the body?

“Il n’y a pas de quoi” . It is friendly and can be slightly familiar but it’s informal and acceptable.
