    I can respect your beliefs to a point. But it is YOU that must plan and be inconvenienced not I.

    If he had been moved beside me... I would have stood up and said aloud, "Change!" And demanded a change for not wanting to sit beside a freaking idiot.

    The people on the plane played this very poorly. Sit down, shut up, or get the f**k off the plane shithead.

    Reminds me of the Orthodox temple in London I went to for a Bat Mitzvah years ago.

    All us ladies had to sit separately from the men. The men who were there to celebrate a young woman's rite of passage.

    Amazing - you're OK with fucking us, marrying us, carrying your children...but not sitting next to us?

    If the airline had asked the woman to move, then there would be a real story here.

    There is a story here.
    This is how it starts, a little here, a little there until it is accepted.
    Fuck that.
    I totally agree with that theory generally when it comes equality issues. But hardcore fanatical Orthodox Jews aren't about to change anything. Not changing is basically the entire basis of their entire belief system. You may as well ask Christians to stop believing that Jesus died for their sins. Change in this context is absolutely not going to happen by the general public being mad. Any improvements in this case will only happen when their own offspring change their own practices within their religion.
    HOWEVER, if this woman's rights had been impinged upon, as they often are when religious beliefs affect women, I would be singing another tune, and very loudly. But that is not the case here. I have absolutely NO problem with some idiot not sitting beside a woman and sitting somewhere else. My issue would come if the woman herself was asked to move to accommodate the man.

    I am only stating that because of their interpersonal beliefs it is eroding away secular beliefs at a miniscule level (chipping away).
    Soon there will be rules on airline pamphlets stating - In accordance with our airline policy if you are asked to change seats to accommodate a persons religious beliefs you must or may be subject to fines and removal from aircraft at your expense.

    But the airline never even considered moving this woman to accommodate a person's religious beliefs, did they?? I don't think there is any chipping away happening here at all.

    I guess. If the flight attendant had suggested that the woman move, then I'd be all over this incident. But since they didn't, and the woman actually wasn't put out at all, except for letting an Orthodox Jew offend her (and I would be offended too if it happened to me, although I wouldn't really want to sit next to someone from this faith myself, so wouldn't mind that much. I was on a flight once where there was an Orthodox Jew sitting across the isle from me, and even then it got a little annoying, because he kept having to get up and pray and do his leather strip wrapped around his arm thing and bob up and down and stuff in the aisle. It was distracting and annoying to have him doing that in such close quarters... but of course I didn't complain to him or anything. I figure he was just doing what he felt he had to do).

    People can pray 24/7 everywhere I don't care it does not bother me. That is who they are.
    I guess a point I am trying to make is that these people that won't sit beside women are running out of women to accommodate this. Now they are slowly having to answer for this religious belief shit. It has come full circle. "Oh you poor baby, don't want to sit beside a woman - shut the fuck up sir and here is your peanuts and warm coke".

    Yeah, people can pray 24/7 everywhere. I think it might bother you if some dude was standing a foot away from your face while he was doing it though, for long stretches of time, in the coach section of a plane, like happened with me.
    But you just made my point. That woman did NOT have to accommodate this. And if no one else had wanted to either, then the man would indeed have been told to either sit in his assigned seat or leave the plane.
