Until quite recently all Western women wore scarves virtually all of the time.

Odds are good that your grandmothers wore scarves.

That didn't turn them into Moslems.

What’s your point? All of us (men and women) must be encouraged to wear the hijab/burkha as long as we are aware that “That didn’t turn [us] into Moslems.”

BTW, show me ONE picture/photo of non-Muslim Western women who wore a hijab/burkha - and I prefer to see the head-to-toe variety.

A hijab/burkha is NOT a scarf and any such comparison is bizarre.

Having given it a thought, my grandmother did wear a scarf, or some kind of hat outside the house, and thought it quite daring to speak a good word about a Catholic neighbor from back in the twenties.

You clearly do not get my point...
They say they feel more ‘feminine’ dressing like Muslim women. The evidence is clear that the Islamic community worldwide represses and ostracizes women. Their ‘education’ on what it would be like to live life as a Muslim woman is, to put it mildly, lacking.

That doesn’t make any sense.
