What do you gain by posing this false dichotomy? We all know it's false, and that even in the Islamic world, most of the people of all periods have worn more clothes than are commonly covering the women in my Walmart or the girls in the local middle school, and less than those prescribed by today's extreme Islamists.

I'm not sure who "we" is, but your observation is true, if patently obvious and not particularly germane.
