Is the beekeeper suit mandatory for muslim broads, or is that a free will choice they are making?
You do realize that there shouldn't be drivers licenses issued to muslim girls who wear a beekeeper suit to their drivers license registration photo taking, right?

Very innocent question: But can they see the streets well through that veil?...

The so-called "beekeeper suit" isn't even customary for most Arab countries...It's a choice that a woman makes to wear this and I assume that you are speaking of the ones that cover the entire body including all of the face but the eyes. In some Arab countries, the only people that wear this is bedouins while in like two or three countries it's considered "proper". I'm a Muslim and I don't agree that people should wear this either because women are allowed to show three parts of their body, their face and the palms of their hands. My Husband (who is from the Middle East) even calls the dresses "ninja suits".
EDIT: and in some Muslim countries, women are not allowed to drive and the countries that they are allowed to drive are usually richer countries, (ex. Kuwait) and they pay a driver to take them everywhere. Men usually drive so I guess women wouldn't have to worry about seeing through their veil.

It is mandatory for a woman to cover her beauty. I really don't understand what you mean by "beekeeper suits" but a woman must cover her body. It is not mandatory to cover the face or hands.

of course the veil is not mandatory..... however, in some places, the men say/rule that it is mandatory and then it is forced upon the women.
as for identification like for drivers licenses and passports etc... there is nothing wrong with a woman uncovering her face for the purpose of identification (even to a man, so long as the purpose is only for identification)... so it is ok for her to uncover her face for the photos.
I choose to wear the veil but I uncovered my face (still wore hijab to cover my hair) for both my drivers license and passport. I think its important to be able to **reliably** be able to identify others in situations like when someone is pulled over for a driving violation or when travelling and showing identification to the airline employee and at customs etc... a photo of a veiled face is not reliable identification.

Beekeeper suit.... wow... you do realize the veil is OPTIONAL... don't you? Muslim women wear that by choice.
And you starred your own question.... feeling a little un-loved by your biased questions?

No it isn't. Muslims should wear the Abaya, Hijab, and Niqab. They can wear modern clothing underneath the Abaya as long as they don't wear anything see through, that shows their figure, any sexy promiscuous clothing.
