We as Sikhs are meant to stand out from the crowd.

Historically, women never wore a dastar.

That has come across my mind too. Iv seen lots of historical sikh artwork going back to the sikh empire and have never seen a sikh woman depicted wearing a dastar. The paintings show women with joorah tied on top of their heads and then covered with dupatta/chunni. Even early photography don't show them in dastar.  I think in general it's a recent thing ...     i could be wrong lol

then why did Mai Bhago get khande di pahul ? why did Guru Pita ji tie a dastar to her head ..this is in sakhian

She requested to join the Khalsa and in return she was blessed with being a Khalsa.

Most women stayed at home and looked after their children, once one learns vidiya and santhiya and fits the standards to be a Khalsa then they can be accepted.

No deep meanings to find in this like you always attempt to find in other facts.
