Hi aineo,
I am not an Aramaic scholar but this verse must be read as a question if we read context.
Verse 5 says:
"And every woman who prayeth or prophesieth having her head uncovered, dishonoureth her head, for she is similar to one whose head is shaven."
Since God in our days, clearly blesses meetings where our spiritual sisters do prophecy and pray without additional covering, I think that Paul must have had specific reasons to write this, maybe it was because of some Greek culture where women were godesses being the reason that Paul explained that the woman was (created) out of the man (Adam).
