FT: yeah I read about the Syrian ban a week or so ago that was surprising. Also to find out that predominantly Muslim countries are doing the same thing, or at least similar things, is very interesting.

It seems as if wearing veils (in Muslim countries) is considered fundamentalist... I´m not sure.

Maybe it has to do with the differences between Sunnites and Shiites also... but I am not as remotely far down Islam to be able making a claim.

The veil or burka might have its origin from a culture where rich people are allowed to marry as many women as they can financially support... thus creating an imbalance in demographics/ simpler men go without a woman - especially without those considered the pretty ones...

And somehow it crystallizes to me that there might be a connection between warmer climate and the "value of women" in society... but that might be completely off too.
