#1 Most women in Morocco, whose King Mohammed VI favours a moderate version of Islam, prefer the hijab headscarf that does not cover the face.

I favor equal rights for women, which includes the right to be allowed to wear whatever they want without the automatic assumption that they're fair game for rape if what they choose ins't "Islamic".

#4 hijab headscarf - all that is prescribe. See also - nuns, Mennonites, et al.

The full body covering is a post-Mohammad creation/adaptation by the real oppressive patriarchy.

#5 Hijab/headscarf was perhaps to reduce the spread of head lice?

#6 Hijab/headscarf was perhaps to reduce the spread of head lice?

Rewearing without sterilization would cause reinfection, Glenmore. But in a dusty environment with limited soap and water, a scarf over the hair would keep it cleaner.
