There are two broad types of questions that might be asked on this topic:

1. What should I do? How should I dress? What is required of me? What is ideal for me?

2. What should we do about the broad “crisis”? How do I control others’ behavior? How come everyone else dresses like either a Muslim or a harlot?

The first line of questioning is not only ideal but required of all Jews. The second line of questioning is very tricky. It is possible for someone to ask these questions with altruistic motives, in which case they are only USUALLY wrong for doing so, but often times they arise out of catty pettiness in which it is difficult to envision it ever being okay.
