Straw man argument. The veil on a bride is a ceremonial dress she wears once (hopefully). The muslim head rag is a device designed to keep their women in perpetual slavery and dominance to their men.

Frankly most people look much better in clothing then without so your Amazon Belt sophistry falls flat too.

It isn't very complicated.

If you want to be a reporter in another country you have to dress like the locals. You have to blend in to get access to people and locations to actually observe what is going on.

As far as "ceremonial dress" goes, there are traditionalist Christian churches here that believe their women should cover their head while worshiping. Don't Amish women generally cover their heads in public?

Hardly a strawman argument.

Clothes are clothes ~ Western women are correctly dressed only in hiphuggers. Eastern women still wear dresses and gowns.

A lot of this depends on the thoroughness of the surgeons to repair damage wrought during childbirth in less advanced countries.

Ever hear of a 3rd degree episiotomy?
