Yes, this is good. I don't agree with banning the veil, since I think a ban will likely create more problems than it solves, but a man attempting to force his wife to dress in accordance with his wishes isn't acceptable. |

That's not forcing. That's begging, pleading, and bargaining. |

I am so adjective that I verb nouns!

As long as that doesn't mean only weekly showers, wearing funny berets, and having to ascribe to the view that Jerry Lewis is a comic genius. |
