That's part of why a ban on headscarfs in schools/public places is a bad idea.

Agree. People often forget that head scarves were a common feature of European dress until the 1950s and are still worn by a good number of old women.

Islamic dress is about modesty. It's arguably about promoting women as people, not sex objects; so you talk to their faces not their chests. If people want to wear it, that's their choice.

Until the 1950s? I can remember more than a few people wearing them when I was little. Mind you, I did live out of the way just a bit.

I stand corrected.
