93. Depends on if it is chosen or forced--an analogy is hair length here. In 70s, any boy with short
hair had been coerced by his parents, would be teased mercilessly and called a nazi or mental patient. Cosmopolitan went as far as to say never date a man with a crewcut who isn't in the military.
Now a lot of us choose that hairstyle because it is low maintainence or we like the look, and because fashion isn't quite so rigidly conformist.
I get the impression that girls who wear that in the West and in Westernized Muslim countries are choosing it as an affirmation of "traditional values" just as fundamentalist Christian women might choose to wear skirts instead of pants or refrain from wearing low rider jeans that expose their ass crack and pubes.
