Hmmm... Dress codes should be left to the person in question, never to governments or cult leaders.
The "Bad Burqa" bit reminds me of the transition from wearing a long skirt to pants/short skirts that occurred over here in the times of the generation change from my grandmother to my mother.
My grandmother did not wear anything but long skirts, the church priest told her it was immoral to show her legs, and she passed that brain programming to my mother.
As my mother grew into a young woman, she started wearing pants and short skirts. Needless to say, my grandma wasn't pleased, but saw it as a change in the times.
I would wish the same to middle eastern women.
And about looking at a woman lustfully... Okay, I admit to looking at women with lust, but if we talk about wrongs in a sociedy, I don't get why in Islam dominated countries stoning a woman to death or pardoning a rapist and jailing the raped woman is possible.
It's not like I dislike Islam... I just dislike most religions for what they are.
