Answer:

Separate the sacred from the profane.

Step-by-step explanation:

As explained by the nature of sociology, people take action to safeguard sacred things by separating them from the profane. "For example, some refrain from speaking the name of God when they feel frustrated; others believe that a woman must cover her hair or her face during worship and that a man must remove his hat during worship."

(Ebsersole 1967)

This practice is done, especially in Christian acts of worship, as a sign of respect and tradition. This is based on the bible verse, 1 Corinthians 11:2-16. The verse says that, because men were created in the image and likeness of God, covering their head is a sign of dishonor. The opposite was said for women, and if they didn't want to have their hair covered, they should cut it short or shave it instead .
