In America the hijab, niqab, burka, chador, garbage bag, etc is worn as an in-your-face political statement & nothing less:
“We are not of your culture! We do not share your values! We do not respect your ways and we DEMAND that you respect ours! Our religion today is your religion tomorrow! Inshallah!!!”
BTW, I was deployed to Uzbekistan which was part of the USSR and is (mostly) secular. Women wear mostly Western garb. I asked one good-looking Uzbek chick if there were any burkas in Uzbekistan. Her dark eyes flashed and she replied, “Of course not!”, then pointed toward Afghanistan. “That’s for those people to the south!”
Wow, I thought. A Muslimah who gets it about burkas.

Why did the EEO even permit the lawsuit?
Disney has a dress code for employees who present Disney to the public. For 60 years they have been consistent in that dress code. Disney is right.
If they randomly applied the rules, then they would lose. If consistent, as they are, they will win.
Because you're a Muslim doesn't give you more rights than the next person just the same.
