The convo does get interesting. There are some women get real nasty about women, especially Muslim women, who don't wear burka, and others who are open to a woman deciding for herself... they aren't bothered by women, even Muslim women, who don't wear it. That I think is the point, aye? What I find most interesting are Iranian women in Teheran. Iran is one of the most repressive regimes in the world but they let women get educated. To whit, Iran is producing a large number of female lawyers and doctors. Iranian women have one of the highest literacy rates in the Muslim world. And yet, they have to cover their heads. So Iranian women do it in such a way that they still look sexy: If Iran ever gets their act together, they will be a powerhouse.
