If they feel more ‘feminine’ wearing the scarves then they clearly do not understand Islamic law.

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.

I see enslaved Muslim women wearing headscarves in my local supermarket and neighborhood on an every day basis. No one bothers them. There is no harassment. In the days after the 9/11 attacks, Muslims went about their business without being harmed in any way. If radical Christians had declared holy war on the Muslim world and flew planes into buildings in Saudi Arabia, how would Christians in Muslim societies have been treated? They would have been slaughtered on the streets by “tolerant” Muslims.

Silly young females. They, 1) don’t know what “feminine” is, given that it is not even definable. 2) They feel better because they are getting more ATTENTION, which is something all teenage girls crave; like breathing air.

Think of it like a fetish, the hair is hidden making it taboo.

I know a few Orthodox Jewish women who wear wigs because of religious codes and it makes them feel much more feminine and sexy.

Or as a former professon of mine told us in class one day, he was out studying a tribe for 6 months, all the women went topless, but wore long skirts down to the ground. When he got back to the US, he was indifferent to breasts, but he would lose his train of thought at seeing an ankle. To make matters worse (or better), when he came back mini-skirts were in fashion.
