No one has the right to take away a woman's voice. Aside from during the Shema, if a man cannot maintain control over his thoughts upon hearing a woman singing, that is his problem and he should work on it. If he is so weak minded, how could he thus control his thoughts if his kids upset him, if a stranger insults him or feeds his ego? Silencing others for his own lack of willpower is not Kiddush Hashem.
And this idea can also relate to all religions or ways of life. Silencing another (or blaming another) for your own shortcomings and lack of control is never good. It is far better to work to control your own mind, rather than complain that others "make you" have bad or improper thoughts. The thoughts are your own...control them wisely as best you can. =)
