Some Muslims consider exposing and/or photographing a face in public offensive; and consider any "street" photography of women off limits. You draw a line that states, "if you photograph a woman in public you must include the face." These are subjective, personal and cultural considerations. You, of course, can draw this line for your own photographic practice; and viewing. And I respect your right to do so. Others will continue to step over it.
