Muslim women and Orthodox Christian women are brought up differently to us. They are taught from an early age that a woman will only be respected by god if she shows modesty and a Muslim woman's hair is seen by those who are practising Muslims as the most sensual thing she posses.
You could compare that with the way we see a woman's breasts in the West. If we went over to Africa and mixed with tribal women who went about their work topless, would we feel comfortable doing the same? I probably wouldn't because it would make me feel vulnerable.
