[quote=Anonymous]I've been watching this thread, and actually met a woman wearing a niqab today.  I went to Costco after work and got stuck in a line where there was a price check/food stamp issue that lasted for what seemed like forever.  The Muslim lady behind me was really nice.  We didn't want to get out of the line and go into another really long line, because - murphy's law dictates when we do that the issue will be resolved and we will be stuck in a new crazy long line.  I was a bit scared of talking to her, but when I struck up a conversation about how I always seem to get in the line that has "problems", she was super nice.  It was a bit strange only seeing her eyes, and she had a small daughter also wearing a veil but we were stuck in the line for a long time so we talked a lot.

I felt weird that the things I were buying were bacon, dog treats, and alcohol, thinking she would judge me, but she was really cool.  This is not a troll post.  After talking to her for a while the veil didn't really make a difference, I could judge her personality from our interaction.  It has made me feel differently about my previous thoughts on niquab.

I still don't really understand it, being an atheist and not liking religion very much, but it definitely bothers me a lot less after interacting with a woman who wears it. [/quote]
