Re: GTA is Full of Them - Another "My Rights Are More Impor said by dragonfly:Nah, it's an interesting question. If a bull wants a man's haircut, why shouldn't she be able to get one? I'm sure she can... somewhere else. If a place has a business owner or employee that won't serve someone, simply go somewhere else. When I receive rude service, I take my business elsewhere; I don't make a big stink about it or go to some 'rights' tribunal.
Hah, I figured it was a bunch of Italian barbers until I clicked on the link and saw it was people of the Islamic faith.
Nevermind their religious faith, I support any business owner that doesn't want to serve someone for whatever reason. A business owner has rights as well. What tribunal does our society offer to them, to cost others money? |

A business owner does not have the right to discriminate in the offering of services on the basis of certain prohibited grounds, including gender.
However, in this case I don't see it as a matter of discrimination on the basis of gender, rather discrimination against the business owner on the basis of religion -- an equally protected right.
I believe she is being unreasonable, and may need to find a hobby. |
