This reminds me of some favorite Turkish folktales about a character they call "Nasradine Hodja":
When Nasradine finished his studies in seminary, his professors told him, "You are about to become an Imam. It is improper for you to be a single man. We will find you a wife."

Nasradine met his wife the day of his wedding and she was the ugliest woman he had ever seen. On the first day of their marriage, the wife needed to go to market. She had become the wife of an imam, but she did not know how traditional he was, so she asked, "Would you like me to wear a burka when I go to the market?"

"No, that's okay," he answered, "but if you could wear one at home, I'd really appreciate it."

And the follow-up:
A merchant saw his new imam limping through the marketplace covered in bruises and scrapes. "Nasradine Hodja!" he called, "What happened to you?"

"My new wife threw my favorite pajamas down the stairs," he said sadly.

"How did this cause such injury?" inquired the merchant.

"I was wearing them."

Why do they need to show any eyes? Just give them a blind person’s cane.

Okay, question: Why don’t they make the livestock wear veils?

And end their beauty contests for goats and camels???

Yeah, but what if a one-eyed blink is interpreted as a wink?

I don’t know, those mirrors are mighty sexy, they might get all excited looking at their own reflections.

Two eyes makes women look too human. This way they will look like Cyclops.
