In the vernacular newspaper, a reader wrote that he is very pleased to see a female TV news presenter
donning the headscarf (wearing the tudung) stating: "she appears graceful and increases the image of
Islam".
I wrote in response that I disagree with his viewpoint. As a healthy male, I feel short-changed when
a pretty female is "covered" as this attire robbed her of her feminity. A female with nice long hair
is an attractive sight, a thing of beauty and gives me the adrenalin rush.
I am also of the opinion that a piece of cloth does not a Muslim make. What is more important
is what is IN the head, and not what is ON the head.
