It doesn't matter to me what people want to wear, if it makes them happy. I do wonder, though, why so many Muslim women feel the need to cover up in a country whose laws don't demand it. I remember when the first generation of Asian immigrants arrived here. My in-laws lived in Bradford, which was one of the first areas to have an Asian community, and the women from that community used to wear beautiful saris and salwar kameez. Why do they now, 40 years later, have to be covered from head to toe?

I agree everyone should have to bare their faces, at least, in official situations. Too much can be hidden behind a veil.
