The hijab (etc) is immodest

[LostLocke]

At least in western cultures. When standard dress is jeans and a tee shirt, what you’re actually doing is drawing more attention to yourself. Most people will let their eyes slide right past a woman in jeans, a tee shirt and a ponytail. Besides that is it not an insult to your own god to claim that he has made your own natural body inappropriate?

I agree with you. Its not a sin to show off your body but it is a sin to deliberately entice others to sin by looking at you. Making people fall in lust over you would be sin. Rightly so. I think we should have laws that make sense not like sharia law which makes no sense whatsoever.

If a particular religion wants to have a dress code under threat of expulsion, they can knock themselves out, that's their right. But the government/law should never enforce any kinds of those codes. If looking at a woman is a "sin", that's between you, your god, and your church. The government should have no concern over that.
