You admitted that such men exist by saying that some Sunni men are like that. That in and of itself justifies the hijab (i.e. your admitting that some guys are like that).

Now you lost me. Please show me where "Hijab" came into the discussion between me and sixpakistan. Here are the posts:

Then shouldn't the validity of their point be self-evident?

[And there was no discussion about Hijab or dress prior to his comment. He was not talking about Hijab. I replied the following:]

They have a stronger adherance to the conscience, the inspiration of Allah and can often sift out what to take and not to take using it.
Then there are the strong ones who are heavily influenced by the nuts and crannies and who spend all their lives absorbing whatever detail they could find in Sunni sources including every nerration good and bad cited in the name of religion - and their mindset is built from it. Though sincerity may be there, they trod a path that is often not in conformity with Qur'anic morality and since they dont have this important criterion of the Qur'an to judge, they simply become whatever their sources of religion makes them be.
peace.
