I am the opposite. I like seeing women in the milder versions of veils, etc., where they are modestly clothed. A number of refugees from Africa who live in Seattle now wear such clothing..it is quite pretty, in nice patterns and fabric, but very modest and covers the head and sometimes part of the face. I hope no one objects to that. It is so nice to be on a bus with them and not with the women who show way too much..and men too. I would be glad to wear outfits like that in public if it made things safer for younger women..I am not too likely to be the object of much visual ravishment personally (oh please tell me I am much too modest on this ...)mg
