I want to know why women's rights groups aren't jumping all over islam for forcing women to wear clothing that men are not required to?
You mean the dark woman to the left? Could be, can't really tell, or it could a member of the govenor's staff. Either way, my point is that you can properly respectful without giving up your own values. When I visited Japan, and visited Buddhist temples, I could be respectful, humble and quiet; but as Christian, I would not pray there.
