=== Burka ===
[[Spell My Name With an "S"|Or burqa or burkha...]]. Traditionally associated with Afghanistan, this garment is much like a chador, but rather than leaving the face clear, it covers the whole face, leaving a net or mesh of cloth around the eyes so the woman can see. This is by far the most conservative garment of the bunch, and one of the most controversial; several Muslim countries have banned it in schools or even outright. It is also banned in France.<ref>The law also banned [[Malevolent Masked Man|ski]] [[Blatant Burgler|masks]], other masks except in certain situations, and face-concealing helmets when not being worn for safety purposes. One wonders what [[Team Fortress 2 (Video Game)|the Spy]] would think of that.</ref>
