The Washington Post’s Ruth Marcus applauds Harvard’s decision to allow the suppression and segregation of Muslim women: Hijabs at a Harvard Gym.

The most ridiculous quote from her article:

Muslim women who enroll at Harvard and turn up in hijabs at its gyms reflect a strand of Islam that society ought to encourage, the better to compete with its more odious cousins.

Muslim women who turn up at gyms wearing hijabs, demanding special treatment, are from exactly the same strand of Islam as their so-called “odious cousins.” These are the odious cousins, pushing the encroachment of misogynistic sharia traditions into American institutions—they don’t even try to hide their intentions—and clueless journalists like Ruth Marcus are inviting them in.
