In middle eastern countries the women wear those black costumes because they pretend to be ghosts as a sign of respect to their deceased elders. They are then showered with candy in public as a treat for showing respect. It has nothing to do with sex or some kooky muslim rules, you guys need to lighten up and realize if anyone knows how to have a good time, its muslim people!

and why do some of em only have their eyes poking out ? is it coz the men feel insecure ?

In Western society, man's natural inclination towards sex has been mass marketed for profit and severely manipulated. In Western culture, you find women putting makeup on, getting all dressed up and sexy to go out in public to attract attention, and then when they get home around their husband they dress down and throw on some jogging pants and a t-shirt--This is backwards!
However, in Islamic culture, one who is living in a natural state (fitrah), does not view sex as an end in itself, but rather a means to an end. Yes, men have a natural inclination towards sex. Yet in Islam, sex is used for the purpose of bringing closeness, intimacy, and safety into a relationship between husband and wife and for the purpose of bring about righteous children.
A women has two choices. She can exploit a man's natural inclination towards sex, by bringing about temptation and creating distraction in a man's heart, and diverting him from his duties to his Lord, his wife, his family, etc. Or a woman can protect a man's dignity and virtue by dressing in a decent and appropriate manner, and only displaying her beauty to those within her own family.
And it's not just dress. It is modesty in behaivor. It is not enough for the Muslim to just dress appropriately, it is also modesty in behaivor, and it is a virtue to be shy when encountering the opposite sex.
.......btw, Muslim women wearing black has nothing to do with a death in the family.

i was told first hand by an arab if there is a death in the immediate family they wear black for the rest of their lives. so i know this for a fact.
i dont agree with the U.S/England/Australian dress code for women, i dont agree with girls letting their tits and ass hang... my girlfirend is French and she dresses with style, she wears modest clothing, like 98% of French girls.
in christian religion sex is meant for intimacy and closeness etc. aswell.

it's one extreme to the next.
