14. Aside from the freedom of choice and expression question...
That also is my concern. Creating more and more isolated communities.

At least at present these women are out and about in the community. If such a ban would go into effect, many would just stay home and not go out.

How would you react if wearing pants in public were banned. No shorts, undies, nothing. Would you leave behind a piece of cloth that makes you feel more comfortable when in public, or opt to stay home.

Such a ban doesn't help the woman under the veil, it punishes her.

Remember there is a human being like you or I under there. It's not just a veil, it's a person.
