i’m saying that the interpretation that hair alone s sufficient cover contradicts the whole verse.

that protestants who refuse to have their women cover their heads are bowing to feminism before God.

and i’m saying english translations in general are poor and confusing.

You don't like English? Let's try Greek: the original Greek of 1 Cor. 11:15 says that a woman's hair is given to her as "peribolaion", which is "something thrown around one, i.e. a mantle, veil -- covering, vesture."
