Like women in pants (or men for that matter) would do less "adjusting" - I don't think so....

Stephen Hoover;~ What I find stupid is this person sued, if you can't wear the uniform don't apply for the job... Like wanting to be a cop, they wear pants, it's part of their job, if it goes against your beliefs well find another job, easy really~

Sure if they said she could not do the job because of her gender, but due to the fact she can't wear a skirt, please!
