Just after September 11th, I was tempted to wear a hijab in solidarity.

I felt that if enough women wore them (whatever their religious allegiance, and whether they had one or not), one wouldn't need to equate women with head covered with terrorism (which I think the media did at that time). I never did it, and I'm not sure whether it was a good idea.
