re: #511 Nimed

Mmmm. Suppose that, in a job interview for a doorman, an employer decides that the applicant should provide a detailed account of the occasion in which s/he lost his/her virginity, and how much the employer likes the story would be one of the hiring criteria. There is not religion, race, gender or sexual orientation based discrimination in this example. Does freedom of association mean that the employer has the right to discriminate in this case?

I think sexual harassment laws would preclude such a question. And its also not in public. Your boss doesn’t have a right to know what you do when it is done in private, off the clock, and not illegal. Once you post a photo on Facebook, it ceases to be private.
