One of the key parts to that whole passage to me is the phrase, "if it is a shame"...

There are situations where it is not a shameful for a woman to have short hair.



Besides, I am pretty sure that if we could go back 2,000 years ago, we would see the women wearing actual head coverings (in addition to their hair).

Scriptures were written (and even later translated) within the context of the culture of the human writer.
