I'd like to hear from Islamic experts (not one but several) what is behind the full face coverage. If it turns out that it is a basic requirement of the Islamic faith, then we can intelligently discuss freedom of RELIGION.
If it is more of a tribal requirement, then we can argue if those tribes live up to ALL of their requirements, when they choose to leave their native land.
If some individuals find it COMFORTING that their spouses or themselves are behind full face coverage, they shouldn't blame the society, but themselves for the antagonism they create.
It is rather sad to read that a lady, who didn't wear a niquab BEFORE she received one started wearing it with zeal after that. Did she find a cause to fight for?
