So you would take her side if she was not a journalist, but since she was you believe she was wrong. I'm sorry I just don't see the difference. I guess the reason is that you think she was just creating a story when there is none, and I believe the story has been there for 30 years just waiting to be revealed. She did the right thing in doing so, and judging how this story has been picked up around the world, I would guess that others agree.As I said, I have no problem with someone asking her to change seats. The problem I have is when the bus driver told the Post reporter that the bus will not move until she does. Then it becomes an order, not a request. I can't imagine someone who is not Orthodox responding in the manner you have. There also is a big difference in being Orthodox and being Ultra-Orthodox which is really what we are tlking about. From what I've seen most Orthodox who are not Ultra-Orthodox think this whole thing of separating men from women is stupid in the first place. What is preventing them from being attracted to a non-Orthodox woman? And why do some Ultra-Orthodox see nothing wrong with going to prostitutes as long as they are not Jewish? The whole thing seems hypocritical to me. |
