I would tell the ladies not no move out of their seats

I got a simple fix for this superstitious "bull shit".

  If they are going to declare on the plane that they are "orthodox' in this respect they must prior do so when purchasing the ticket. At said purchase point they may purchase as many as necessary adjoining seats to preserve their faith if it is of such value to them!

  If morbidly obese people are made to pay for their physical demand of space should not arbitrary demands of the same space be equally compensated/arranged?

and I don't blame the woman who wouldn't move one damned bit for standing up for HER rights. MY religion dictates that I don't kowtow to idiotic thumpers of any faith.
