Dhimmitude: Harvard Submits to Islam

Harvard University has moved to make Muslim women more comfortable in the gym by instituting women - only access times six hours a week to accommodate religious customs that make it difficult for some students to work out in the presence of men. Men have not been allowed to enter the Quadrangle Recreational Athletic Center during certain times since Jan . 28 , after members of the Harvard Islamic Society and the Harvard Women\' s Center petitioned the university for a more comfortable environment for women. Harvard Islamic Society' s Islamic Knowledge Committee officer Ola Aljawhary, a junior, said the women-only hours are being tested on a trial basis. The special gym hours will be analyzed over Spring Break to determine if they will continue, she said. Aljawhary said that she does not believe that the women - only gym hours discriminate against men. These hours are necessary because there is a segment of the Harvard female population that is not found in gyms not because they don\'t want to work out, but because for them working out in a co-ed gym is uncomfortable, awkward or problematic in some way, she said. Though the policy was in part initiated by the school' s Islamic group, Aljawhary said women-only hours are not a case of minority rights trumping majority preference and said women of different faiths have showed interest in the hours. We live together in one community, it only makes sense for everyone to compromise slightly in order for everyone to live happily, she said. This matter is simple, Can\'t we just display basic decency and show tolerance and inclusion for people not a part of the mainstream majority?

Piece by piece, the world is falling in to darkness...

Who would have believed, that out of all people, it is the Liberals who advance so relentlessly the destruction of liberty and freedom for the sake of religion...

Hijab lady, go to Turkey and live happily ever after.

@jaymorpheus01 You are so Right but that would be sharia law and that has no place in any FREE country especially here in the U.S.

[faithfulstronghold]

islam has no freedom and if they don't like it they can get out.

Muhammadans want special treatment - I agree with that. They should have sharia health care treatment only, camel urine/milk and Jinn doctors only for all medical conditions. Any Muhammadans object to that?

[jaymorpheus01]

Cool, then another area should be set aside for stoning Muslims who own liquor stores and sell alcohol...(and those who drink it) and Muslim women and men who go to dance clubs to flurt or have sex, and the muslim men who you catch at the strip club... (oh well at least their men can have 4 wives at a time, it's a man's world hehe.) ... why not go all the way (Oh wait...didn't Saudi Arabia consider banning women from working out?)
