Answer to a question:
Why did women cover themselves more than men throughout history?
Tendency to hijab in women: Careful observation of the following pictures shows that throughout history, women used to cover themselves more than men. Why do you think women covered themselves more than men throughout history? Women have a sense of beauty and love and have a desire for self-decoration and showing off, so how is it that until the 20th century in all the nations of the world, women covered themselves and their beauty in public places
Hijab is a natural tendency
There are a series of instinctive and natural desires in our existence. Instinctive desires that are related to our body, such as eating and sleeping, and natural desires, such as the desire for beauty, friendship, worship, being loved, perfectionism, etc. One of these natural desires in humans, especially women , is the desire to dress , which is called modesty. It means that women internally tend to cover themselves more in front of men. Of course, in the last 100 years, this desire has been fought in the media and public opinion has been pushed towards indecency, which will be discussed elsewhere.
Fighting modesty in the West
Wendy Schlitt, one of the women's rights activists in America, says: A society that fights against shame is the enemy of women. Feminist movements in the West, in pursuit of equality, tried to make women's clothing styles similar to men's, ignoring that the differences and instinctive tendencies that exist in women and men prevent the relaxation of "underdressing" in women. First-generation feminists believed (and some groups still believe) that differences attributed to gender were simply men's misinterpretations of reality. English feminist Mary Wollstencroft believed that there is no inherent racial or class difference between men and women. The differences that have arisen between these two groups are the result of the social environment, which will disappear with the reform of the society.
Neurobiological differences
But years after the formation of feminism and with the progress of science, feminist theories were never proven. Doreen Kimura and Dr. Elizabeth Hampson, neurologists at the University of Ontario, Canada, say: the reason why women and men are so different is that sex hormones in the brain, before and immediately after birth, come into action and shape the way the brain is organized. (The War on the Family, William Gardner)

McCobe and Carol Jacklin (two feminists from Stanford University): obvious differences between boys and girls even before birth in all areas of physical fitness, susceptibility to illness, perception, learning, tactile ability, language learning, mental abilities, threshold There is pain etc. (Psychology of sexual differences, Kobe and Jacqueline)
Lara Schlesinger (doctorate in psychology from Columbia University): Men and women are fundamentally different. We did not create these differences so that we can eliminate them ourselves. The research of Cambridge Whitehead Institute shows that: "biologically and genetically, men and women are more different than previously thought. The genetic difference between men and women is one to two percent. This is not a small percentage. The genetic difference between a woman and a female chimpanzee is one to two percent. This genetic difference leads to subsequent differences." Instead of women and men considering these differences as threats and insults and complaining about them, it is better to think that these differences make men and women complement each other. (Women's power, Lara Schlesinger)
Erica Jung (American writer): The position of extreme feminists is in danger because science has proven that men and women have many differences in their existence, which have been deposited in them since the beginning of creation, and these differences cannot be changed by making changes. Socially ignored.
Considering the difference between men and women, shame and modesty in women is an undeniable fact that makes women cover themselves more than men. Throughout history, the same desire has caused women to appear in society with chaste clothes
