This is not female empowerment. All Islamic veils are ultimately imposed on women either directly or insidiously. These veils are not innocent pieces of cloth devoid of symbolism.
Humans are a visual and social species. Roughly 80% of our sensorial input is via our vision. We gauge one another by reading each other’s faces. Hence, in a free society each individual has the right to know the identity of those around them and interpret their prospective intent based on their facial cues. Feeling threatened by a masked person is not hateful, it is a very human response. The religion/quran does not prescribe these particular veils. It is incumbent for immigrants to adapt to the culture of the host nation, not the other way around. Taking a long term view of the situation, if we were to permit this practice, the numbers of women donning this attire will quickly increase due to the high birth rates of the those devout muslims.
