And that's where you're fundamentally wrong. What about transgender people? I met one at a sub station. All dressed up like a girl. If asked a considerable part of the population would ban that too. You don't draw the line at dress codes if you are about secularism and freedom of expression. You draw the one and only line at hurting others.

And who are you to say I am wrong and you are the arbiter of rightness?  Whether there should be a dress code can be regarded as a matter of opinion.  Whether the dress code can allowably be so designed as to preferential infringe on the expression of one group vs all others is a much deeper issue fundamental to how laws can be constructed.
