Take this argument to its extremes and you have a woman dying in Ireland because the doctors refused a medical abortion necessary to save her life as it is against their laws based on religion. His job requires touching as do many professionals upon which we rely. Religious rights can't trump human rights and still have this world make sense.
That's over stretching the situation a lot. Rights are not hierarchical it's true but I'm thinking that religious rights trumps coiffure rights by a schmidge. There must be a thousand starving hairdressers in Toronto go find one and *bleep* about men for an hour, I hear its therapeutic.
Over-stretching is one thing ... and then there's over-trivializing.

$10 on righteous Muslim brother over feminist.
Sarcasm is like a good game of chess. Most people don't know how to play chess.
