I'll be honest, I'm really twitchy about deciding I know what is best for other people. Clothing has long been a way to identify yourself as part of a tribe.... be it Berber, Islam, Goth or Wall St.

I've had jobs where I had to wear pantyhose - it was in the dress code. And I've never understood how guy's survived the full suit & tie in the Texas summers.

I think the face veil is a problem in a Western country where it contravenes our laws... like in photo IDs. But I'm not going to tell a woman she can't wear one anymore than I'd tell a woman she must wear one.

The freedom to choose in so much as our choices don't endanger others - isn't that the cornerstone of what we're about?
