14. I have the same question about 'choice' here
Women who are raised to think this is natural may find it difficult to shed the veil. It may be their choice because they are comfortable with this ritual. In a way, it's no different from elderly American women who think only men should wear pants. In an earlier era that was the norm.

I am uncomfortable with an outright ban but the government could address the choice issue, especially if there is no theological basis for this attire.
