In the past I have heard CAIR say that beards for men were "religiously mandated" as well.  I agree it really wears thin, but I suppose if they said otherwise they would feel that it weakened their cases.  I guess personal choice would not make a strong enough case, either that or the leadership at CAIR really is of the opinion that beards and hijabs are totally mandated from God.  I wrote CAIR about their choice of words once on this too, I never got a response either.
