We live in a country where a woman is free to walk in the streets without her face covered.  But she is also free to walk around WITH her face covered.  Each woman if free to make her own choice.  Each man has the right to choose whether to be bearded or clean shaven, whether to wear a hat or go bare-headed.  There are many norms, but they are not rules.  The right only to choose to agree with a norm is tyranny.  The right to choose to differ from a norm is freedom.
