Do we need a women-only bit in the gym or women only evenings?

My brother has been complaining because he went to his local gym and found that he couldn't use it on Tuesday evening as it was women only. My brother is quite over weight but has been doing really well with diet and exercise. The response he got when he complained about the women only thing was that women don't like all the men ogling them in the gym and so must have seperate times / areas. is this true? I confess I am not in the gym much but do we really need special women only times? Are women such delicate flowers?

There has been a international effort to get Western women to wear the Islamic veil to show “solidarity” with Muslims against so-called “Islamophobia.” Special “Hijab Days” have been organized on college campuses throughout Western Europe and the U.S. But on “World Hijab Day” in April, the effort backfired at a prestigious Paris university, where only a few non-Muslim students showed up in hijabs, the New York Times reported. Feminists and secularists condemned the protest as an “insult.”

No. I will not be showing solidarity.

Same Lass.

The UN is normalising the idea that men's sexual control is the responsibility of women.

It is NOT the responsibility of women. It is the responsibility of men. Every description of hijab as 'modest', every 'support hijab' meme, is normalising this pernicious idea that it is up to women to control men's sexual desires.
