[quote=Anonymous]I don't wear hijab, and am not a Muslim, but I do see women in beautifully colored hijab pretty regularly.  I guess I don't see it as different from other religions.  For example, as a Christian, I probably wouldn't wear a strapless wedding dress.  In fact, in a church, I'd probably choose something with sleeves, because I am not in the habit of exposing my cleavage at church.  But that doesn't meant that I wouldn't choose a beautiful eye catching dress. I particularly like lace, but I don't have a religious objection to rhinestones or sparkly beading.  I guess I don't have a problem with catching someone's eye, I just don't want to catch their eye with my boobs.  I want people to say "what a beautiful bride", even if I don't want to look "sexy".

I just sort of assume that a Muslim woman, at least one who has made a choice to wear hijab with Western dress, might have no objection to looking beautiful, even if they don't want to look sexy.  In their culture, a woman's hair is a very sensual body part, kind of like breasts in our culture, so they cover it.[/quote]
