While I'm glad to see that Dr. Kotb is spreading the more authentic teachings of Islam that in sex between a husband and wife, that the husband has an obligation to fulfill his wife sexually and that she has a right to pleasure, she still reflects an extremely strict view of acceptable sexual practices. No sex before marriage, no mastrabation (for women), no homosexuality, no anal sex... one would think that we were reading the usual admonishments from the Catholic Church on sex.

Even with her more "liberal" teachings about sex, it still is troubling that she says that a woman must be a "blank slate" before marriage in regards to sex (so mastrabation, where she can learn what is pleasurable to her is out) and that women do not have the same kind of sexual needs that men do. As for her claims to "curing" homosexuals, in a society where homosexuals are under treat of death, arrest, torture and persecution if caught, I'm not surprised that she has a number of samples to boast about. I'm sure that if Egypt (which has had a number of very public arrests and trails of men caught in homosexual acts in recent years) decriminalized homosexuality, Dr. Kotb would probably find most of her "cured" patients back in the embrace of men before too long.

Well, as I said before, she's a definate step up from the fundamentalist crazies who find women so horrifically corrupting that they would not want one at their own funerals, but it's a baby set up.

I have a ton of t-shirts with cute images and wording on them. My favorite has claw marks across the breast and the words "Good Kitty Gone Bad". I love that shirt and wear it often, but I don't wear it to the office.

Simple answer, folks. Unless you work in a place with an extremely liberal dress code (and in my opinion, even if you do), a shirt like this has no place in your work wardrobe. It's not offensive, but it is disruptive and when you are dealing with customers or co-workers, it's important to come across as professional. Either come to work looking like you deserve to have that job, or stay home.

So Kitty isn't happy? Truthfully, I couldn't care less. The people I work with are my co-workers, not my buddies. Sure, reaching out to her as a compassionate human being would be nice, but if her personal life is becoming the dominent feature of your intereactions with you coworker, something is very wrong. You come to work every day to do a job and get paid a salary, not to have a group therapy session.

Time for Kitty to grow up already. I have been in the position before when I've had to remind employees of the office dress code and it seems that a lot of very young employees (and I'm not that old myself - in my late 30s) seem to think that they are so indespensable that they can get away with whatever they want. I finally had to tell a young woman who insisted on wearing super low-rise pants (you could always tell what underwear she was wearing on a given day) and Mr. Pants-so-baggy-that-they-fall-down-all-the-time warning that if they didn't want to come to work dressed appropriately, they didn't have to come in at all. Mr. Baggypants finally got the message, but the underwear flasher ended up written up and given a termination warning before she learned her lesson.

This is still not appropriate attire to wear to work! End of story. I am so fed up with seeing people (men and women) showing up to work looking like they're heading out to the gym. In our lab we have several techs who come in looking like they just rolled out of bed. It's people like this who abuse lenient dress codes.

Wherever this woman works, she has to deal with coworkers and possibly clients/customers. Would you want to be served by someone dressed like that? Hell, I go to coffee houses where the staff has more class.

Casual attire for work does not mean belly-bearing shirts, baggy jeans, bedroom slippers and going braless (a few offences that people in my office had gotten repirmands for). You are supposed to be adults and educated professional... how about trying to dress the part a little?
