Iowa Supreme Court Says It's OK To Fir Someone If They Are Sexy

Melissa Nelson was fired by her boss after ten years working for him as a dental assistant. He fired her because he says that she was too sexy for the workplace and he thought he would eventually try and have an affair with her which would destroy his marriage. The Iowa Supreme Court said that it is not discrimination and that the boss was perfectly within his rights for firing Melissa because she was "irresistibly attractive." Lucky for me, there will be no firings of me, because I don't think anyone has found me attractive for a decade.

    Ridiculous. I hope her attorneys take this all the way to the US Supreme Court where Iowa will be made to realize it's justices can't see the discriminatory forest for the horny trees.

    I live in Iowa. I haven't had a job in 15 years (stay at home mom), but I'm now going to say it's because I'm so damn irresistibly attractive that people can't hire me. :)

    I love that the dentist refers to "might" have an affair for further reason to fire her. Did his eyesite suddenly come back in the 10th year and he finally noticed she was good looking? WTF. This is ridiculous.

      Apparently she wasn't so irresistable for about ten years then she started wearing skank clothes to work. So dr. Perv says some shit like, "the bulge in my pants means your clothes are too tight." They exchange some stupid texts that mrs. "Happily married" should have been like,
      "I don't have a bulge but i do have a sexual harassment suit. Chaching!"

      Instead his wife found the texts and decided that along with ratting him out to the pastor to shame his ass! Glad some pastors still do that. I'm guessing him she reminded him that he could be dr.owns half the building because my wife legally took my perv ass to the cleaners. Decided divorce court would sully the good name of dr.gropesalot

    Totally off topic: I just now noticed how little actual content there is per page on CDAN (five per, actually), even though the individual pages here are reallllly long, so as to hold the 20 to 25 ad links per page. Sheesh. Enty must be making a ton of money from ad revenue.

    I think we should fir him.

    She definitely had a sexual harassment case; hopefully, her lawyer will take this to a higher court.

    I hate the prospect of someone being destroyed in court but this dentist and his goober wife need to be used to set a precedent: being a right to work state doesn't mean labor laws don't apply.

    @sea what cracks me up the most about that article is that it says nothing! I think Enty gets better gossip by beig anonymous and I like "his" identity being mysterious. It's like another blind.

    So, is the dentist saying that if he couldn't control himself that all the sudden this lady's panties were going to fall off? What makes him think she'd be attracted to him? If I were her, I'd sue for slander for inferring that she has loose morals and bad taste.

  21. hothotheat9:41 AM

    I think the dentist's wife has a lot to do with her firing. She threatened to leave him if he didn't fire her. Plus the dentist texted a suggestive question to the hygenist (something about orgasms) but the hygenist didn't answer the text. That's the one the dentist's wife found.

    The wife is the real culprit here. That said, the hygenist has a good case for the USSC.

    Sounds like his wife put the fear of God in him. Seriously after working together for 10 years they had a relationship and his wife knew it was dangerous for them to stay in close quarters. Or maybe that was how he met his wife? Makes you wonder.

  23. Anna V. Xol9:43 AM

    Gypsy! That was my first thought too. So what if he is attracted to her. Keep your junk in your pants. She doesn't want you. The supreme court probably doesn't go around punishing random people. Those text messages obviously imply that her panties might have fallen off or that she was being unnecessarily flirty. The media likes to spin things. Being too irresistably sexy makes a good headline.

She has something to say too, moron!!!!! Really, it reminds me of some muslim thinking about women. They are so tempting that men just cant control themselves???? Really? Are you a freaking animal in heat??!! I completely do not get get the reasoning here. She loses her job because he may get a woody. Not fair!!

    Why did he give her a reason for firing her? Don't most places have "at will" employment where you can quit or be fired at you or your employer's discretion, or is that a state by state thing? If he actually said that was the reason, what a dumbass!

    1. auntliddy9:55 AM

      The reason was he found her attractive and may be tempted to have affair with her. Then their reverend testified it wld be a good idea to fire her for same reason!! And justice went out the window !

    2. seaward10:04 AM

      @yodelay Yeah, it's state by state, but Iowa is at-will. He could have just fired her without giving a reason & avoided all this. That's what I don't understand about the whole thing. Why the f did he actually tell her?

  29. Anonymous9:54 AM

    Seriously? He went with, I wouldn't be able to stop myself from having an affair with her? What makes you think she'd want you? How is that her fault? It's not a crime to be sexy. Let's see how far she can get in court. This oughta be good. I say she gets a huge settlement.

    Not sure there is a discrimination case; her replacement was female, so there is no gender discrimination. Sexual harassment possibly, if they look at the texts and see that HE started them. But if she did, she can't claim she was harassed.

    It's cute they think the employee was the risk to their marriage. They have to be pretty jacked already to have such concerns. Doesn't bode well for their future as a couple.

    So that means any woman there is open to be fired, if he feels he would want to have sex with them. That is such bullshit. She should sue his ass.

    More like he was making passes at her and she finally threatened to take action. That's what happened to me, but it was only after a couple of months. The company hid behind CA's 90 day At Will law, disregarded my records of the harassment and the scuzzbag denied all of it. Funny enough, after I was fired, I found out that the company had a settlement with a woman who worked for the same guy, paid 8 months before I was hired.

  37. Tyler10:27 AM

    @Tammy, discrimination based on looks, i.e. physical appearance. He claims he finds her "irresistibly attractive", and it was on that basis the decision to fire her was upheld by the Iowa court. It's ludicrous.

    Any chance there is more the story to the story than the snippets reported?
    Is it possible that she changed her attitude/behavior or attire? Could her demeanor have changed? There are a lot of questions. I'm sure the Judge had more information than is being presented in the news.
    Just a thought.

    He may had a dress code about professional attire which is normal in an office setting.I'm sure there's more to the story.Some women don't know how to conduct themselves around their male colleagues with their overt flirting.Hell,the dentist's wife prolly pushed the firing after she saw Miss Thing prancing around.
