The Dutch anti-discrimination supervisory body ruled out a decision taken by the Dutch school against a Muslim Woman who refuses to shake hands with the opposite sex due to some religious reason put forward by her.
Fatima Amghar, 20 was deterred from taking part in a teacher-training programme, as she refused to shake hands with men who were 12+. She had forwarded an application asking the Dutch School to accept her plea but she was rejected saying that shaking hands were a part and parcel of the program.
This is not the only case of gender problem in Netherlands, even last year a Muslim Woman named Samira Haddad, was facing discrimination when she was vying for a teaching position in an Islamic School.

I am glad to hear that the sister got her job. she should be allowed to choose who gets to touch her and who doesn’t. that should be an obvious basic human right.

The point is that Islam as it is being preached now by the mullahcracy in Iran and elsewhere in the world, particularly in Arabia, sub-Saharan Africa, Afghanistan, Pakistan etc, is so sinister that it teaches human beings to forgo their own human rights, especially women.
The Muslim women are so brainwashed that they are now finding it to wear the hijab and refusing to do things as shaking hands to be fashionable and something trendy to be proud of.
Shame!
