Attachment 40843Quote:
The head cover, called the "Nike Pro Hijab," boasts a single-layer pull-on design made from lightweight polyester in dark, neutral colors. The fabric's tiny holes will make it breathable while remaining opaque, a requirement for hijab-wearing women.
it is encouraging to see private corporations developing performance athletic wear solutions for women of all walks of life and religious persuasions.
sources from the company say they are also working on a sharia compliant brassiere product, tentatively named "the boobhijab".
Maine State Prison bra-removal policy reversed after women visitors object ? State ? Bangor Daily News ? BDN Maine
apparently the state of maine did not get the memo. this is sooo wrong, but for all the right reasons.Quote:
Stacy Venable of Malvern, Pennsylvania, was one of a handful of women who contacted the BDN in February about having to remove their bras in order to gain admittance to the prison to visit inmates.
“It’s noticeable,” Lori said. “You’re exposed, and you’re in a room with sex offenders and pedophiles. It’s embarrassing and it’s scary.”
“Part of the way you change culture in an organization is you set the tone, lead by example and you address things,” the commissioner said, adding that while the prison “can’t sacrifice safety,” it can ensure it in a way that balances that objective with “human decency and respect.”
“If there’s a way to do this without putting our hands on the public, I’d like to do it,” Fitzpatrick said.
Incredible. I've been inside one state prison in each of 2 states, decades back when I was a lot younger. once as part of a young college Christian concert group. Neither prison practiced such a policy. If they had...probably my whole concert group would have turned around and left, I might or might not have as an individual visitor back in the day, who knows at this point. Would in-the-moment cancellation of the concert triggered a rash of acting out among inmates who had been looking forward to an event that would alleviate stress and boredom? perhaps, perhaps not. All a person can do is say no to inappropriate invasion of privacy. I rarely fly anymore since 9/11.
Didn't a man win woman of the year last year? But no one is upset about that. Do we need a day to celebrate your sex anyway? I have sh*t to do today, no one has time for petty *ss issues. I am a woman every day! My boyfriend is a man! Together we roll with it and make things happen, who else wants a cookie. Move on.
Nike knows the market is getting larger.Quote:

Just to be clear, nothing against International Woman's Day or the previous posts by Donkey that recognize women. Just got confused by the Day Without Women March. My apologies if I offended anyone.
