Within the above scriptures Peter cautioned wives about glamorous hairdos, having hair intertwined with gold. In order to see a women's hair plated gold, their hair must be visible, in plain sight, thus rendering your ideology obsolete. If women were required to wear veils, such as you suggested, within the early church, Peter would have never commanded females to abstain from fancy hair styles.

The veil was only for prayer and prophesying, not all the time, bro.

I see......so subjection between women to man, and man to God is only intermittent?

One has to follow the pattern of glory and veiling from the old covenant to get this point.

All are submitted under God, anyway. Christ under God, man under Christ and woman under man. But woman and man both showed it before grace because man is God's glory (1 Cor 11:7) and glory of God was not revealed until the cross. The veil was removed from the holiest to reveal God's glory.

1 Corinthians 11:7 KJV For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.

God's glory (represented by man) was not revealed, so men and women were both covered before the cross.
