The New Testament simply asks women to be modest: In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; 1 Tim 2:9

I understand the Quran does not teach that a woman must be completely covered. Leaders of the Muslim faith have little reliance on men to control themselves so they make rules that woman cannot go outside the house without their body and face covered and without a male relative to accompany them.

In 1 Corinthians 11:5-6, The Bible mentions women covering their heads while praying or prophesying. However, interpretations of this passage vary among different Christian denominations. Some see it as a cultural practice of the time, while others believe it applies to modesty and respect during worship.

Narcissistic women are often obsessed with themselves and often talk aout themselves. (Although, not all women who talk about themselves are narcissistic. They are probably unsure what to talk about and are trying to find a common point of interest by trying to realate with talking about something that happened to them, etc.) Easy-going women are down to earth and not stressed out by little problems.

Why doesn't the Bible tell about Naomi's death?

The main theme of the Bible is redemption, redemption of mankind. The main story of Ruth is redemption, redemption of a woman and a family. The Bible doesn't tell about many of the character's death and even fewer deaths of women. Because the theme of Ruth is redemption, the telling of a death would be out of theme.
