An interesting thread.

I'm always interested to see that men in churches are often asked to dress properly, and remove their hats, while women almost never are...and God forbid you should ask them to observe the apostolic tradition of covering their heads!

I encountered this at a cathedral in the midwest once. There was a sign in front which asked gentlemen to remove their hats before entering. No sign asking ladies to cover their heads, though. All the tour guides, also women, were wearing pants.

It's an awfully strange world!
