[Ansteorra] Veiling

[Chelsea Durham]

It's really supposed to be religion wide from what I've gathered in my recent research. At the mass I went to, the women there all seemed to be of varying cultures so I'm not entirely sure if it's also cultural, unless we're going with the cultures that are the most devout??? I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm just saying that I'm not sure, and for all I know, you're completely right and I've not a clue what I'm talking about. Thank you to everyone that responded to my post. Your details and information are quite welcomed and enjoyed. 

I was really asking because I'm sort of toying with the idea of adding a veil to my garb ensemble when I'm not in Middle Eastern clothes, doing Middle Eastern things.
