I live in Minneapolis, and MOST places do an excellent job of accommodating for Muslim women's apparel. Finding a job that meets her needs shouldn't be too hard.

If someone has a problem following those rules, then they ought to go find another job that suits them better. Bingo. end.of.thread.

naked (adj.) 1. unclothed;nude 2. without the usual coverings; bare exposed. 3. plain, undisguised. Source: Webster's Handy College Dictionary Mr. Webster has spoken. What further need have we of witnesses?! If we try to use #2 (without the usual coverings, ignoring the bare and exposed qualifiers) then we are travelling down that same road Bill Clinton trod when trying to define "is"!

Sophie11 -> RE: fully clothed nudity (6/20/2008 10:59:18 AM)
If she feels naked in pants, does she also feel others in pants look naked? That could make for a pretty awkward walk down the street if you were her.

quote: Wearing pants is not the same as being naked. Going without clothes is the same as being naked. Can you really be this dense? It's been explained in very plain English twice now. You do realize that posting just to aggravate someone will get you banned from this forum, don't you? It's looking more and more like this is your only purpose in posting in this thread, to aggravate the person who took the time to try to explain things to you.

In the Psalms, David describes God as having feathers and wings (he doesn't even say the same as- he simply says it outright). Am I making up words for him if I say that he does NOT feel that God is a bird? I find this thread distasteful, and quite honestly painfully sad. Should I ever use a simile (yes, that's junior high grammar- I taught it), I would hope people would understand, rather than people mocking me in trying to prove that their beliefs are 'better'.

Roberta_ -> RE: fully clothed nudity (6/20/2008 6:39:01 PM)
She is in the wrong line of employment. I fully respect that she feels immodest wearing pants. However, the company she chose to work for has a dress code for a safety reason. I'm sorry that dress code does not fit with her beliefs.

Sophie11 -> RE: fully clothed nudity (6/20/2008 6:42:11 PM)
It seems to me that everyone here agrees that she has the right to feel that way, but that she should go find a more suitable job if her employer is requiring her to do something she does not feel comfortable doing. To be perfectly honest I really can't even understand why there is still so much arguing going on in this thread. [8\|]
