"In my opinion, this is rather nice, actually."

Are you nuts? You think it's rather nice to be completely segregated?!

Where'd you get that? Read the article! The article plainly stated it was open to all women, Jewish and Christian included.

Plus, this is a private group which pays a rental and can include whomever they want. Just like my homeschool group could rent the pool for a homeschooler swim class, or a kid can rent the place for a poolside birthday party.

So?

I guess if they pay to rent the space they can do as they want

okay, ugh, having read this, i have to say, as a female this makes me sick. i cannot imagine this kind of oppression. boys no older than 6? women are completely bound by this oppressive culture, which, of course, i knew, but actually seeing it in practice makes me ill.

i'm sorry. ugh.

Orthodox Jews tend to swim separately, and I don't imagine the women wear the skimpiest bikinis.

If Muslims ever try to bring sharia law or their customs into American public life, I wonder if the ACLU will fight them tooth and nail as they have done to Christians?

Just so long as we never ask Muslims to conform to the American way of life. Just so long as we bend over backwards not to offend them. Just so long as we kiss their butts because we are so happy to have them in our country. I know I feel safer with Muslims in America.

Look at it this way, now they are only two hundred years behind the times instead of two thousand.

That does create a dilemma doesn't it ?

Exactly, if you can not abide by US law, don't swim. The pool certainly can not blatantly violate US law with some of its employees.

If they pay a rental fee as other groups do, what is the problem? If it were a completely public pool that had these restrictions I could see the issue.

What is the differnece between a group of muslim women renting the pool for their private use and me and my buddies renting it to have a cannonball contest?

if they are paying what's wrong? how's this different if any other group wanted to rent the facility?

As long as it's not government doing it, why not?

Refusal to to assimilate into society and a hatred for what our nation stands for is not a good thing.

No, I agree with the other fellow. It is nice. Think about it. Nudge, wink!!

Also, people should have the right to segregate themselves but not to be segregated by others. For example, an all male golf club or an all black social workers conference.

It would be great. Then I could go swimming, lose weight, get in shape, etc. without the jokes & stares from men just because I'm not perfect.
