I have just been stunned by a request by a shopkeeper to leave because I was male was this correct? My partner has been using a local beauty salon, to get her eyebrows threaded, and facial massages she recently went there to ask for a facial she was there with my daughter, I had just walked into the shop after posting some items at the post office, I was shocked to be asked to leave the shop because I was male, I was shocked even worse my partner was told she could not be served or receive any treatments because I was there, I pointed out there was never a problem with the previous owners, the reason we were given was because most of the customers were muslim, the shop at the time was empty there are rooms at the back and at the side with doors that closed for personal treatments, I was only wanting to sit in the seats to wait for my partner and daughter but was told "No i had to leave" There were no signs on the door saying only female customers this saloon was in Walthamstow east london United kingdom, this is a shock to me because i have never been asked to leave a saloon giving basic treatments, I feel the fact that a majority of customers were or are muslim not relevant, to me this seems to be a religious problem or belief and this should not be applicable in UK saloons. Am I correct in my thinking this? The previous owners were chinese I never had a problem waiting for my partner then..... Is this a case of muslim beliefs being pushed onto everyday society and is this correct and lawful?
