Bridesmaid refuses to remove headscarf at bridal shower 😱

A bridesmaid caused drama at her friend's bridal shower after refusing to remove her headscarf in front of a transgender guest. The bridesmaid, who wears the headscarf for religious reasons, had recently dyed her hair and was excited to show it off. However, when a transgender guest arrived, she became uncomfortable and decided to keep her headscarf on. When pressed by another bridesmaid as to why she wouldn't remove it, the situation escalated and the transgender guest claimed it was a slap in the face to her identity. The situation has caused tension in the bridal party, with some threatening to leave the wedding over discrimination towards either the bridesmaid or the transgender guest. The bridesmaid is now questioning whether she should have made up a lie to avoid the drama, but feels that everyone should just accept and respect each other. What do you think, was the bridesmaid in the wrong or should everyone just accept each other's differences?
