Thanks for posting this. I think the author makes some very good points. The modern Western fixation on female physical beauty is indeed demeaning to women, IMHO. Islamic veiling, however, is not the answer, especially when forced.

Turkey is an Islamic country where the vast majority of women are not veiled, but then again they are often forced to not wear it. Also, Catholic women until recently used to wear a veil when they went to Mass.
