My grandmother (catholic) wore a scarf every day. But she wasn't threatened with acid to the face if she didn't

Well, that's the choice part of it. The biggest part. The other part is the values attached to it.

This is my mother. She wears scarves coz no hair (fire) & likes pretty ones.pic.twitter.com/lP5tpwjk12

She's not wearing it because she thinks women have a specific duty to be 'modest.' That idea I object to.

Quite. Being raised to believe it's sinful if you don't combined with threats if you deviate skews 'willingly'
@anais_henrix -
Or even not combined with threats. Here younger generation more likely to wear niqab than parents.
-
Because elements of younger generation have a more fundamentalist faith. Older generation may disapprove.
-
But if a young woman takes on a niqab along with notions of female modesty & piety, I still disapprove.
