Ehhh... I don't know how I feel about this. I feel like it makes the dentist a shitty person for feeling incapable for resisting, but I don't know if it should actually be illegal.

I mean we've already allowed for look-based discrimination in jobs for 'models', so is it really so unfair to say that a dentist can fire someone for not fitting their personal preferences?

Of course one could easily use that excuse to not hire anybody they don't like for any reason...

I've heard a lot of nonsense about this story - people saying that men can't control themselves. They obviously missed the part where it says she worked for the guy for 10 years and he obviously controlled himself in all that time. She was only fired because his wife demanded it.

Could he not have found her a job with one of his colleagues?

I do believe that employers should have a right to hire and fire employees as they see fit. When a person is hired for a job, the employer and employee enter into a business contract for the employee to provide a service to the employer in exchange for money. If either the employee or the employer feel like the arrangement isnt working out, then either of them should have the right to end the contract, no matter the reason.

A job is not a "right".

Prepare for the feminist backlash against this soon.

Panty status: soon to be bunched.
