Some people have pooh-poohed my decision to cover my hair completely and wear baggy long dresses, but maybe that helps keep the icky gropers at bay. I don't know, but I do find the stories on this thread surprising because that has not been my experience.

I always dress modestly while walking around in Egypt(loose and long to my knees tunic over slacks or jeans),but don't cover my short hair.
