Muslim woman sues Planet Fitness gymover Muslim head covering (money, states, laws)

[All American NYC]

McDaniel joined the New Hampshire-based gym chain Planet Fitness in Albuquerque on a two-year contract and later transferred to another location, according to the lawsuit. On October 3, 2011, she was turned away at her new gym and was told the informal head covering didn't meet its dress code, the lawsuit states. The gym had a sign that said “no jeans, work boots, bandannas, skull caps or revealing apparel.”

Why is it that the Muslim religion wants everyone else to bend their rules to suit them?

Stop man , dont blame a whole religion because of this stupid lady... I know plenty of muslim females that dont wear that or wouldnt have an issue NOT wearing it.

This is just another case of trying to get rich the sleezy way.

Unnecessary opportunity strikes again.

I don't see what's wrong with her wearing her headscarf.

However, her credibility was blown when she did not simply write a formal complaint to the company instead of jumping on the lawsuit moneytit.

I don't see what is wrong with her wearing her head scarf either?

So what, in the gym people wear much more revealing clothes? And that is ok, and who decides? Some old biddie as myself, or some young 17 year old with a body by Fischer who wants to show it off? Just saying?

I agree. This is Planet Fitness, they bend over backwards to accommodate people. Someone went straight for the jackpot.

But I also think it's a warning shot by the Muslim community to take on anyone they feel is disrespecting their religion in the slightest way. This won't be the last lawsuit.

The scarf could get caught in the equipment.

This is true......so what does Planet Fitness do, trying to protect the consumer by not allowing it gets them sued....if they allow it they get sued.

Safety. You can bet she and her fellow islamists would be quick to sue if their head gear got caught in anything.
