yoyoyo: if you do not understand why a male- and not a female- should cover his head in a “mokom kodosh”,I have no answer for you. Yourv analogy to tsitsis is laughable. A yarmulka is kovod for the sanctuary (and you see that they require it by the Kottel too!) tsitsis has nothing to do with kovod-it is a mitzvah. You willsee that ,in all yeshivas and ashkenaz shuls, the baal tefiallh always wears a tallis-even during maariv. Why? Again, for the kovod of the shul! similar to a yarmulka.
