The larger problem is willingness to obediently follow lunatics telling them to hand over more money. It's of no surprise, to me, that they buy falsehoods. They are all in for that.

Head coverings Yes. Russian and Greek Orthodox wear scarves. Some Jewish Orthodox women buzz cut their hair and wear those hideous wigs. The Amish women wear those little caps on the back of their head.
I cannot bring to mind any other major religion that commands a woman to cover her face, though.
But a hijab also doesn't cover the face. A niqab or burka does.
I still think it was unnecessary provocation and they probably dressed the women this way to provoke the response.
It would have been the same if they were kissing a man.

@rainmanjr Also head coverings are more cultural dogma than actual scriptural doctrine.

Are you saying someone cannot be religious and homosexual? Because I know plenty of ecumenical gay people.
AS for homosexual nuns and monks it is a cliché dating back to the middle ages
The whole point of IDAHOTB is about encouraging freedom and inclusion, surely giving in to bigots is and was the height of fear based hypocrisy.

@LenHazell53 It was just deliberately poking the sleeping bear.
This is an Atheist board. Religion is mind imprisonment.
People need to escape that as well as societal enforced views of accepted sexual expression.

@TheMiddleWay Are you serious?
You might as well say there was not a massive outpouring of Hasidic Jews in Poland and the Ukraine in 1919 demanding that there not be a program against them Hence putting them front and centre could not be about shining a light on an underserved population who wants more light.

You are an idiot

@TheMiddleWay Exactly this. Religions are often oppression in and of themselves. Especially the Big 3.
