And the whole purpose of the headcovering is to make sure men don't have lustful thoughts about the women around them when they see them, putting the responsibility to control men's behaviour and thoughts on women, and not men. That's the whole point. It is, by default, a viciously misogynistic tool.
like both priests and nuns have to do stuff. denominations that require nuns to cover up ask men to do the same too. but i get your point even though i had nothing to do with this discussion.
