This is absurd. Be sure to freep the poll on the middle of the main page (DailyPennsylvanian.com) asking whether the University should have girls-only gym hours to accomodate Muslim students.

Is it wrong to hope Harvard burns to the ground?
With nobody but Liberals in it, of course.

They should have “No girls allowed” hours. That would free up equipment for men.

Can you imagine the outrage if men requested that the facility be closed to women during peak hours of use? Can you say sexual discrimination lawsuit?

I disagree as to who they are doing this “women only” hours but I hate going to a gym that is not women only. They just become giant meat markets, I want to exercise, thats it.

"I don't feel comfortable stretching, sweating or exercising in front of guys," she said. I actually sympathize. It serves no legitimate purpose to have males and females work out in the same facility. I find it distracting at best, annoying at worst. Here's the solution:
Establish women-only hours.
Establish men-only hours.
Ship the Moslems back to Arabia anyway.

Elass said she never went to the gym last semester because she couldn't get used to the idea of working out in front of males. Her physical-education classes in Bahrain were always segregated by gender. Maybe Bahrain would be a better place for her...

Normally I would have no problem with this. But in matters having to do with Islam the demands never cease. At first they are rather reasonable or relatively unimportant. But they just keep coming and there is seemingly no end to them short of surrender to Islam. And the demands are frequently accompanied by escalating threats if not met. Now is the time to nip this stuff in the bud by either denying the privileges altogether or drawing definite limits on how far this can go. But I sincerely doubt that many (or any) university is prepared to stand up to this.

As long as they institute pimp and ho hours, there is no problem.

When they start the women only hours, pull all federal funding from Harvard on the basis of sexual discrimination. Separate but equal is no longer acceptable. Harvard does not need the funding anyway with their endowment.

Some see over-accommodation to Muslims and women...
I see a perfect setting for... PANTY RAID!!

“Her physical-education classes in Bahrain were always segregated by gender.”
