Got to disagree with some of your comments..Most of the 9/11 suspects were clea shaven..
If Islam says that post pubertygirls should e covered , then there is nothing wrong with it. Remember that up till the earl part of this centur, women in the west used to wear bonnets or scarfs. In fact, many women in Easter Europe still wear scarfs.
I personaly know two western couples where the woman wants to work, but the husband wants her to stay and look after the children.. This is a lifestyle choice..
