Infamous85 Posted September 21, 2010 Share #9 Posted September 21, 2010 I'm not Muslim but I do have an ounce of sympathy for her, it's her religion and she shouldn't have to choose (although clearly religion should come first). But hey it is what it is, there's thousands of other places to work, no need to make a scene. Lmfao @ Urbanfortitude, I'm still rolling from that comment.

Messino Posted September 21, 2010 Share #10 Posted September 21, 2010 The muslims are like the jews, they still oppress their women and impose ridiculous rules on them.. The jewish women have to wear a wig over their head once they are married so no other men can see their hair..The muslims use a scarf or rag or whatever... This is the reason why France banned this already... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, the burqua/hijab is optional within Muslim families. There's a significant portion of female Muslims who opt not to wear them. As for the oppression issue within the religion, that varies from country to country (the Quran doesn't state that it's okay to beat your wife to a bloody pulp, or pour acid in her face if she reads a book). Common misconception about the religion though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted September 22, 2010 Share #12 Posted September 22, 2010 Kind of an old story, but as said already: the dress code is the dress code. Plus this is a private company - they don't have to answer to anyone compared to if it was a public or government job. This person is either making a fuss over nothing or an attention seeking whore. There is no case. As for the head scarf - I have no problems with that, but when the woman has to wear the 'face cover', that I highly doubt is due to free will. A few years ago in Queens, I saw a woman wear basically a 'Taliban era' attire. Head to toe, you can't even see any part of her other than the hands. I understand that this is 'the land of the free', but to me that woman didn't seem free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A true religion doesn't subjugate its followers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted September 24, 2010 Share #17 Posted September 24, 2010 The headscarf doesn't offend me too much, but the whole 'dress' thing - I don't agree with along with anything that covers the mouth and the rest of the face. Is it so wrong to wear jeans and a long sleave shirt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Concourse Posted September 24, 2010 Share #19 Posted September 24, 2010 Not afraid, a dress code is the dress code. If they bend to one person, then everyone else will want favortism. If the woman wants her head scarf so much, then she should look for another job that allows it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SubwayGuy Posted September 25, 2010 Share #21 Posted September 25, 2010 Yet again I am compelled to say: Religion sucks. Let it burn in that fictional place called "hell" along with the other lies of human history. Wear the damn dress code and shut yer trap. Don't like it, quit. But don't go begging for unemployment when you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not a religion thing, anyone that doesn't like the code can look for another job that doesn't mind such things as this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
