If you're in a building of worship? Do you think both women should be treated equally even though one is disrespecting the religious values of a place people may consider to be sacred?

What if you're in a stuck elevator and your police scanner announces that there may be an armed suspected murderer stuck in the elevator?

What if youre at a nude water park?

What if you the naked lady is brushing her boobs against you every time she walks by?

What if the burka lady is doing the funky chicken?

We treat people differently for different reasons all the time. The question in the OP is poorly worded at best.

I get what you're saying, but I don't believe the spirit of the question was meant to be so technical like that. (Obviously, being naked in public, for example, is illegal, so someone walking around naked would get arrested while someone wearing a burka would not, and etc etc.) 

I think the question was meant to be about whether or not a woman's value, or how much we respect her, how well we see her as a person, etc, would change in our eyes based on how much she is showing her body. To that, I answered no. But I suppose the OP should jump in here and clarify exactly where the spirit of the question was at.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
