What if I'm cold or want to go skiing? I could wrap a scarf over my face which I have done. Is that not illegal because it's not the same garment?
What about COVID? Wouldn't masks conflict with that also? Of all countries I'd never imagine one with a colder climate to make such a law.
There are exceptions for sport and health&safety. You can do all of these things.
Does getting spanked by my husband if I don't cover my face count as a health and safety concern?
Depends on the safe word
It counts as a crime against your physical integrity and dignity and you should report him to the police
I'm sure you're joking, but this is actually the problem here. No women are wearing them by choice, they are either forced or have been indoctrinated their entire lives to believe it's their choice, but in a vacuum they would not choose persecution and near enslavement by their own volition. It's just misogyny on a grand systematic scale.
Austria has a similar law. And a website that connects the local whether report with the rules for when wearing a scarf is okay.
So I have to look at the internet to see if I'm allowed to protect myself from the cold? Oh not officially cold enough even though it's making my face hurt, guess I'll just suffer because God forbid I'm allowed to be the one who decides how much of my body I went exposed to the elements.
You like authoritarian control of the most basic parts of people's lives, most people don't want to live in a world like that.
Exactly
Not sure where you're getting your masks from but mine sure aren't covering my whole face.
Can see the argument for skiing masks and shit though
