I wish I could wear one, as I'm aging. Unfortunately I'm deterred by the overwhelming prejudice out there, as I wouldn't want to be harassed or attacked since I'm not a Muslim, considering where near Dallas, Texas a sikh man was randomly murdered by teenaged rednecks the day after 9/11, showing their ignorance in a way where they couldn't tell the difference between a sikh and a muslim.
But I do admire and envy that aspect of Eastern culture where a woman is encouraged to be modest and where her beauty is emphasized by what she DOESN'T SHOW rather than what she DOES.

Depends on the woman and depends what mood I'm in.
In the woman in that picture I just think she looks beautiful and I wonder what her hair looks like. But for a woman who isn't that good-looking, it doesn't have much effect that she's wearing one of those things.
It is kind of sexy that you have to get to know a woman just to see her hair :)

I think this is probably a religious person. All of the ladies I have met that wear the head scarf have been very nice. So my first inclination is probably a nice lady.

The first thing that comes to my mind is an awareness of how ignorant I am to other people's customs

That they are beautiful. I work with many different cultures and I think that a lot of middle eastern women are beautiful :)

she spent hours making her hair look like that, so she decided to come out and see what the wind could do to her
