How does a story like this even make it into our news? I can hardly think of anything more irrelevant to my day-to-day than this.

"Nilcea Freire, told the official Agencia Brasil news service that the decision showed "intolerance and discrimination"

And what about tolerance for the Universities standards? Isn't it interesting that those how whine about tolerance are the least tolerant?

Two words: sex sells. Don't be so all high and mighty. You read the article. Better look in the mirror.

You are so right - when a university or country or anybody else has a discriminatory policy, we should not do anything to change it because such action is "intolerant." Wow - what a great notion and idea! Just think, if people followed that idea, we would still have slavery, women would be unable to vote, and we would all be British citizens.

There is a difference between tolerance and discriminatory policies.
