It's no different in most respects than a Christian person wearing a cross around their neck or a Sikh person wearing a turban in general. I do know that some people think negatively of it because they think that it undermines a woman's rights. They think it reinforces the oppression many women endure on a day to day basis, and they don't think it's fair that men get to decide what women ought to wear while men themselves do not have to cover their faces.According to the Bible Jewish women were wearing burqas before they could walk. It was primarily used by hookers.
And Paul said that Christian women were to cover their heads in church or else the men were to grab them and shave their heads.
