How was she trespassing? It is her place of worship, and it is open, as far as I can tell, to the public. What I don’t get is why go somewhere you’re not wanted? Find another religion. Just because segregation by sex isn’t isn’t unusual doesn’t make it any less Stone Age.

“How was she trespassing?”

It’s private property. I presume it is owned by a non-profit corporation of some kind. The agents of the corporation (e.g., the iman) did not want her there. She refused. That’s tresspassing.

“Just because segregation by sex isn’t isn’t unusual doesn’t make it any less Stone Age.”

I suppose. I have been to less Orthodox shuls and more Orthodox shuls. Some with a symbolic divider, some with a large one.

When I was a kid, I was certainly looking at the young women my age when I had the opportunity (and vice versa).
