C'mon, take her to another co-ed pool! I'm darn sure she wasn't barred because its for MUSLIM women, it was barred because a man wanted to accompany a young woman.
Some Muslim women consider showing their hair as nudity, and this man wants to see them in bathing suits? Do you not see a problem in this like a normal person not charged with a political agenda?

I have a HUGE problem with it.
It is NOT in the Western tradition or custom to have to bundle all females into a tent-cloth to avoid the visual contact of a male. That is what us enlightened Westerners refer to as SILLY, and MEDIEVAL, and REALLY, REALLY OPPRESSIVE AND MISOGYNISTIC, and for God's sake, can't you all just grow the hell up and join the rest of us in the 21st Century already?
I am appalled that you think the solution is for the man to just go the hell away and find another pool that thinks like, well, EVERYBODY ELSE in the country about something so universal, except for that slender minority of intolerant and primitive types that simply cannot get over themselves enough to mind their own business.
It's not a women's-only pool, and if it were, I'd have a problem with that, too. It's a COMMUNITY pool, and this man is presumably a member of that community. Whoever has a problem with the arrangement of NON-DISCRIMINATION based on sex or religion needs to lace up their boots and move out smartly, and if any women simply cannot bear to have any man but their husbands see them in bathing togs, BUY YOUR OWN DAM' POOL, and do with it whatever your silly superstition demands.
