It seems fair that if women are allowed to obscure facial features the same should be allowed for men. Veiled women in the West are also engaged in a passive protest against the hosting culture.
When does a protest not involve an organized march? It is possible, of course.
I hated this look for myself during COVID. I consider it unnatural not to see the smile of another individual. It presented as a lack of friendliness toward the greater world. And it was intimidating for my patients.
My career in journalism was launched with an op-ed: "Why Can't I See Your Smile?". It was a first for me to open a newspaper and see my name in print with a very ugly image of myself. (Taken when I had the flu.)
There was a noticeable increase of veiled women in my city. It created a distinct discomfort. Do you smile at a set of eyeballs? Or do you just wink?
England needs to incline their ear to the concerns of their citizens instead of threatening to arrest citizens for their concerns. The peasants beyond the moat are beginning to arm themselves with their axes and hatches.
Long live the King!
