I have always thought if I travelled to a muslim country I would wear a head scarf. However looking at Sarah's reasons for not wearing one I have to reconsider my reasoning. Do all cultures and customs deserve equal respect? I think maybe not. Not when they serve to degrade and cause harm and keep women downtrodden and subservient. Also, if I am honest with myself, the greater part of my reasoning would be to avoid unwanted attention. I appreciate the personal nature of the posts so I look forward to what is to come. Welcome!
