You all know I very rarely (actually, never) yell in my posts, so please forgive me if I make an exception here:
AW GEEZ, PEOPLE, WOULD'JA puh-LEEEZ READ THE ARTICLE FIRST??!
It clearly states, "Access to these pools is not free; the groups, like all others that use these facilities, pay a rental fee." There's nothing there aaout "American society modifying itself" or "muslim demands." They're RENTING the pool, just like any other group.
These ladies just want to swim in privacy, wearing the swimwear they feel comfortable in.
The article also says it's open to Jewish or Christian women, some of whom also apparently like the all-woman modesty angle.
Posting such mean little comments just makes you look ... oh, dear... so mean and little...
The article states public pools are modifying their hours, excluding others, telling male employees to go home, to allow a certain segment of society a privilege others do not have.
As I said, private, fine, but public pools, hell no.
If that's what they want, build a pool at the islamic centers and swim in burkas for all i care.
And if they wish to swim with clothes on, don't exclude others from a taxpayer run property for that privilege.
