Quote:How do you even know there isn't another table full of men right beside that table with one woman we can see?
That would be unnatural, wouldn't it? The women would distract the men from their important work, and might end up getting raped. You can't just leave pieces of meat lying out for the cat like that.
Quote:Also, unless you are scared of Muslims or powerpoint presentations there really isn't anything shocking about it either
Sexual segregation happening at a public university in the UK is very unusual. Shocking even, enough to get the PM involved and enough to get Muslim groups banned from universities.
Quote:If a muslim invites me to a mosque
Earth to wally, this was not a mosque. It was a university.
Quote:"Private function" does not mean that it is necessarily held in private, FD. You are just being obtuse. What it means is that it is not the University itself organising the function, rather it is an organisation separate to the University.
I know you would like it to, but the University cannot simply absolve itself of responsibility for what happens on its own campus this way.
Quote:Oh, I'm sorry, I thought the issue was segregation, was I mistaken?
Segregation in a University. If you cannot see the difference between that and segregation in a mosque that is your own deficiency.
Quote:Again, I point out when this picture was taken THERE WERE NO UNIVERSITY RULES FORBIDDING segregation. THERE ARE NO LAWS making segregation illegal.
And yet a Muslim group has already been banned from a UK university for exactly that reason.
