Using Reddit for Interfaith Gender Role discussion, rather than the usual.

This reddit reader uploaded a photo of a baptized Sikh woman, who believes that the body is sacred and not to be modified, not even to cut hair or shave. "The mind of european_douchebag was SO INCREDIBLY BLOWN by the fact that women have hair on their bodies—and, yes, faces—and that some women are bold, self-assured, and pious enough not to cave to western beauty standards (and gender expectations)."

What's even more incredible, I think, is that not only did the woman discovered the page and spent the time to explain her position and beliefs, the original poster had enough patience up read it and not troll back, but apologize to everyone he may or may not have offended.

Using the powers of the internet for good.
