OK. I have a rather disgusting tale to tell about the practices of some Muslim women on a University campus with which I am familiar. A friend who works in housekeeping in a science building said that Muslim women try to get jobs in the particular building because there are showers in the women’s restrooms. These showers do not have curtains/doors. I’m assuming they are a safety feature in case there’s some kind of contamination. I really don’t know.
Anywho, the Muslim women on campus go to these showers during their pray to Mecca times because they are not allowed to kneel on their prayer rugs like the men are. They must cleanse their personal, most private parts while praying. And they do this in these showers. My friend was quite shocked. Now maybe the explanation she was given was wrong, but I don’t know. She was really disgusted. But she’s come across gay professors doing the dirty. The powers that be look the other way. Blech.
OMG!
And I always wonder why no-one asks WHERE ARE THE FEMALES PRAYING when they’re slavishly respectfully showing “Moslems at prayer” (i.e., ONLY MEN in the mosque at prayer).
Never mind if they’re doing something beyond the butt-raising of the men!
“I’m assuming they are a safety feature in case there’s some kind of contamination.”
“Science” buildings indeed will include things for haz-mat type of situations (chemicals, etc) as well as seemingly more mundane things such as fine debris from shops making parts. It’s not fun having metal OR fiberglass dust getting in your eyes.
