Unpresentable
This woman was told to cover up while nursing her child.
When is someone 'unpresentable'?
Let's face it, some people make others uncomfortable just by their presence.
This make them feel unpresentable.
I know a family who had a Downs syndrome daughter. They began isolating themselves because others found her unpresentable. They were placed in a 'shun-zone' and decided to comply with the shunning.
This happened about 70 years ago, so things have improved since then, but a lot of people still self-isolate because they feel unpresentable.

Public appearance
Some people self-isolate when they feel rejected because of appearance
or behavior when they go out in public.
I don't know what more to say about this, except to acknowledge it.
This group includes people who have motor-control or cognitive issues
that scares people.
UNPRESENTABLE
Deaf and Blind
Deaf or blind folks are isolated - when no one wants them to be isolated.
My mother was 90% deaf, so when I introduced her to someone,
I never knew if she understood the words,
but she knew how to go through the motions to pretend she could hear.
I imagine such meetings are awkward for these folks.
UNPRESENTABLE
Opinions
Some people are deemed unpresentable because of the opinions they hold and speak.
People resent them for their opinions - and shun them.
The problem comes when avid truth-seekers encounter avid truth-haters.
And worse are truth-haters that believe they know all truth.
I practice a trade of repairing buildings, both commercial and residential. This is my job.
I own and drive a service truck that carries the tools and materials for my work.
I also have political views, but I don't have political bumper stickers on my truck,
because that truck also represents the companies I work for.
We need to know when to speak and when hold our tongues,
always favoring a choice of words that will eventually shine the light on truth.
But don't be afraid to defend truth. This is why I write websites.
Opinions should be regarded - as the speculations of someone searching for more facts,
to help forge a truth, or as the point of the spear of someone who hates the truth.
And we should remember that the root-truth is always God's decision.

Shame
Shame makes people withdraw.
Sometimes it's shame over something very bad they've done.
Sometimes it's a small thing, forgotten by most, but still remembered by the self.
Also bad - is when a child is forced to carry a parent's shame into adulthood.
I have such people in my life. It makes them feel unpresentable.*
We need to get free of shame that isn't our doing.

If it wasn't a sin, it isn't shameful.
If it wasn't my sin, it isn't my shame.
Let others carry their own shame.
*Natural introverts, I think, tend to carry shame for others.
Natural extroverts, when faced with family shame
seem to go on a campaign to find and 'out' other people
who are more shameful than their own family - just to even the score

It really happens.

Muslim women
Muslim men have decided that their females are unpresentable.
(Yes, I said their, because that word implies ownerships, which they assume)
Want to know why they wear burqas? Here is the secret; it is a mathematical issue:
The ancient Middle east world had a lot of polygamy, which was eagerly carried into Islam.
Let's do the math.
Males and females are born about the same rate.
If one Muslim man has 4 wives (legal in Islam)
this means that 3 men have '0' wives.
So, what about these other 3 Muslim men, when there are not enough women?
Some buy wives
Some buy little girls
Some marry cousins.
Some have sex with little boys or animals.
Some immigrate and rape female 'infidels' - any woman that won't convert.
Some Muslim men buy 9-year-old cousins.
Muslim men immigrate to other lands looking for women for sex, with or without their consent.
It is preached by some - that Muslim men have the right to rape non-Muslim women.
Back to burqas. Because of polygamy, there are so many lust-laden Islam men
that they can't even bear the sight of a woman with just her bare-hair showing.
Or any semblance of a female-form alluded to...so... burqa.
They are Unpresentable.

hiding behind a beard
This is how horny Muslim men can be - so damaged by polygamy.
And polygamy is a form of greed, stealing from others - what others need -
just to give oneself unnecessary tokens of superiority,
partly for the pleasure they receive from the unhappiness of others.
And this is how Muslim men treat other Muslim men?
Muslim men enjoy making other Muslim men miserable.
(but this is a common, ugly human trait)
Is it any wonder that so many Muslim women are entombed in burqas?

King David & BathshebaMuhammed and Zaynab Bint Jash
Bathsheba was the wife of Uriah, one of King David's soldiers.
David saw her bathing in her courtyard when Israel's army was out to war.
He had her brought to the palace, copulated her, and conceived a child in her.
David eventually had her husband Uriah killed and married Bathsheba.
Bathsheba later became the mother of Solomon.
(Read about this in the Old Testament, 2 Samuel, Chapters 11 -12.)
***********************************************************************
Zaynab Bint Jash (female} was first the wife of Muhammed's adopted son, Zaid ibn Haritha.
She was also the freed slave of Muhammed's first wife, Khadijah.
Somehow Muhammed wound up with his son's wife-as his own wife.
***********************************************************************
See how messy history gets when any people-group practices polygamy?
And what did Jesus say about sex-in-the-next-life?
Matthew 22:30
"At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage;
they will be like the angels in heaven."
