Furthermore, Muslim women have their ways to game the modesty customs too. I have seen some who cover their heads and hair, but are wearing skintight clothing, high heels and heavy make-up. Why bother with the head covering?
For the first time, last night, I saw a Muslim woman who was really dolled up yet still respecting the Muslim dress code (yeah, sort of). She was dressed head-to-toe in black but her head scarf was lacy and frilly, her belt strapped around her narrow waist to show off an hourglass figure and giant platform heels while wearing full makeup.
I thought, “Well, if the point of Muslim dress codes was female modesty, this lady is trying to have the best of both worlds”.
