It wouldn’t shock me if this was a ruse. Unattractive women have complained for years about mixing men and women in the gym. The men pay attention to the hot women and the unattractive women feel left out. So to end their victimhood, they want separate facilities.
I doubt they have very many Muslim women interested in the gym. Think about it.
At my health club I noticed a head wrapped muslim woman trying to break her taboos, she was like a cat dropped into the pit bull dog pound. They should either go back to their backwards crapholes or be like other fundie religious minorities in this country and stick to themselves.
I’m kinda looking forward to the Cambridge Hooters’ Wet Burqa Night.
