Women in Saudi Arabia are posting photos of their stepping on face veils in protest of being forced to cover their faces in the conservative kingdom. Using the hashtag "the niqab under my foot," Saudi Arabian women are trying to start a movement against the nation's strict dress codes. There are no federal laws dictating women's fashion, but the police and the judiciary have long enforced the dress code in accordance with Sharia Islamic law, which effectively governs the kingdom.
