well, there's nothing that says those muslim girls aren't american.
personally, I think the girls 1) better be spending every one of those 6 hours in the gym and 2) should fork over the extra cash to go to the all women's private gym at the next T stop if it's that important to them.
They could be from mars, they are imposing a traditional middle eastern custom in a non middle eastern country.
I'd tell them to make alternate arrangements, as these are the rules of the gym. If you want to use it feel free, if it does not work suit you, then feel free to find a gym that better suits your chosen belief system....such as a womens gym.
Some are already insisting the Sharia law be incorporated into the legal system in the UK. I think it's pretty arrogant...
Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
over specific principles, goals, and policies.
6 people. Six people out of the whole student population can't assimilate, so everyone else has to accomodate them. If they could afford Harvard, they could probably afford a membership to Curves where men aren't allowed.
Exactly. Personally I think it's bullshit, and making another gym for them is definitely going too far.
Same as I wouldn't go to another country and demand they change their rules to suit my customs. I would adapt.
It's ridiculous.
bad foreign policy.

Bad idea. You're just helping create animosity by accomodating these women. I agree with several of the earlier posts. If these women don't feel comfortable working out with men, then find a gym that's only for women, as there are several. This is just another example of PC going too far.
