If you're talking about nuns, who traditionally cover themselves, they also traditionally are celibate so...
Orthodox Christian women wear veils in church and in that part of the world, women continued wearing veils long past western Europe.
You do realize that it's a choice made by the woman herself right? If you enter Othrodox church as a woman not wearing one they won't kick you out. It's also a tradition not a requirement.
I've been in my fair share of Orthodox churches in Romania and very few women actually wear a veil for normal church services.
Ah, I didn't know that. Not many Orthodox Christians near me
In many regions in India, almost all kinds of Christians wear that in church
