Bosses Can Fire Hot Workers For Being 'Irresistible': All-Male Court
IOWA CITY, Iowa -- A dentist acted legally when he fired an assistant that he found attractive simply because he and his wife viewed the woman as a threat to their marriage, the all-male Iowa Supreme Court ruled Friday.
The court ruled 7-0 that bosses can fire employees they see as an "irresistible attraction," even if the employees have not engaged in flirtatious behavior or otherwise done anything wrong. Such firings may be unfair, but they are not unlawful discrimination under the Iowa Civil Rights Act because they are motivated by feelings and emotions, not gender, Justice Edward Mansfield wrote.
An attorney for Fort Dodge dentist James Knight said the decision, the first of its kind in Iowa, is a victory for family values because Knight fired Melissa Nelson in the interest of saving his marriage, not because she was a woman.
But Nelson's attorney said Iowa's all-male high court, one of only a handful in the nation, failed to recognize the discrimination that women see routinely in the workplace.
"These judges sent a message to Iowa women that they don't think men can be held responsible for their sexual desires and that Iowa women are the ones who have to monitor and control their bosses' sexual desires," said attorney Paige Fiedler. "If they get out of hand, then the women can be legally fired for it."
Nelson, 32, worked for Knight for 10 years, and he considered her a stellar worker. But in the final months of her employment, he complained that her tight clothing was distracting, once telling her that if his pants were bulging that was a sign her clothes were too revealing, according to the opinion.
He also once allegedly remarked about her infrequent sex life by saying, "that's like having a Lamborghini in the garage and never driving it."
Knight and Nelson – both married with children – started exchanging text messages, mostly about personal matters, such as their families. Knight's wife, who also worked in the dental office, found out about the messages and demanded Nelson be fired. The Knights consulted with their pastor, who agreed that terminating Nelson was appropriate.
Knight fired Nelson and gave her one month's severance. He later told Nelson's husband that he worried he was getting too personally attached and feared he would eventually try to start an affair with her.
Nelson was stunned because she viewed the 53-year-old Knight as a father figure and had never been interested in starting a relationship, Fiedler said.
Nelson filed a lawsuit alleging gender discrimination, arguing she would not have been terminated if she was male. She did not allege sexual harassment because Knight's conduct may not have risen to that level and didn't particularly offend her, Fiedler said.
Knight argued Nelson was fired not because of her gender, but because her continued employment threatened his marriage. A district judge agreed, dismissing the case before trial, and the high court upheld that ruling.
Mansfield noted that Knight had an all-female workforce and Nelson was replaced by a woman.
He said the decision was in line with state and federal court rulings that found workers can be fired for relationships that cause jealousy and tension within a business owner's family. One such case from the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a business owner's firing of a valued employee who was seen by his wife as a threat to their marriage. In that case, the fired employee had engaged in flirtatious conduct.
Mansfield said allowing Nelson's lawsuit would stretch the definition of discrimination to allow anyone fired over a relationship to file a claim arguing they would not have been fired but for their gender.
Knight's attorney, Stuart Cochrane, said the court got it right. The decision clarified that bosses can make decisions showing favoritism to a family member without committing discrimination; in this case, by allowing Knight to honor his wife's wishes to fire Nelson, he said.
Knight is a very religious and moral individual, and he sincerely believed that firing Nelson would be best for all parties, he said.
"While there was really no fault on the part of Mrs. Nelson, it was just as clear the decision to terminate her was not related to the fact that she was a woman," he said. "The motives behind Dr. Knight terminating Mrs. Nelson were quite clear: He did so to preserve his marriage.
"I don't view this as a decision that was either pro-women or opposed to women rights at all. In my view, this was a decision that followed the appropriate case law."

Is Bad Sex a Good Enough Reason to Divorce?
My friend Bethany kept falling in lust with men at her office, which would've been fine except that she was in a 17-year marriage and had two teenage daughters. She was never physically unfaithful to her husband Doug, but the cost in integrity was devastating.
Finally the inevitable happened. She fell in love with one of her co-workers. Again, there was no physical infidelity, but hearts were involved. She decided she'd rather end her marriage than have an affair.
This is one of the things I love about Bethany, no equivocation, but in this instance I thought she was being rash. Couldn't she tell Doug what was happening? That the survival of their marriage was at DefCon 5? I was shocked to discover that she'd been honest with Doug and he'd remained passive.
When Bethany divorced Doug, you'd have thought she was divorcing me. We've known each other since our Study of Women and Men In Society class in Bovard Auditorium at USC circa 1986 and bonded over our shared experience of being children of divorce. How could she consider leaving a marriage to, as she fully admitted, a funny, kind, committed man?
"Doug and I don't have sex," she said.
"What does that mean you and Doug don't have sex? You mean, like, you have it once a month or so?"
"I mean, like, we haven't had sex in two years."
"Holy shit! I had no idea!"
"It's not really something people advertise. And the last time we did it we had to get drunk and watch porn."
"But why? Why don't you have sex?"
"Because I've become his mother. We have an Oedipal relationship. Just minus the sex."
Bethany explained that over the years, she'd taken up more and more real estate in the marriage or Doug simply did less and less so she had to. She managed their family schedule, she had the bigger job, she planned all their vacations, she made all major decisions about their finances and their children.
"Is this because you're controlling and bossy?" I asked. She is controlling and bossy and I can say that because so am I.
"Maybe," she said. "But, I don't always want to be the boss, sometimes I really want him to take over."
There certainly was one place where Doug was the boss and that was in the bedroom. He could control Bethany by withholding. My assessment, not hers.
When you're a married person, other people's divorces -- from marriages that seemed solid and strong -- can be threatening. If it happened to them it could happen to you. I have a propensity to be the boss in my home and Bethany's story was a wake-up call that always getting my way in my marriage could end up being a pyrrhic victory. Fortunately, my husband Henry is willing to tell me when I need to "crawl out of his ass."
Over time, I came to understand that in divorcing Doug, Bethany did something incredibly brave. She took all the hits for breaking up her family, from her parents, her siblings, her children and her friends, myself included, in order to seek a fuller, more integrated life.
In the midst of the divorce, when Bethany had lost 20 pounds and couldn't sleep and doubted herself, she clung to one simple truth, "I can't live the rest of my life without passion."
A passionless life. Not just sexless, but passionless. We all need to have a passion. Whether it's passion for our partner or spouse, our work, our children, our hobbies. The lack of sex in Bethany's marriage had eroded the passion of her spirit. She was living a rote, predictable, stagnant life.
It took time for me to see her situation objectively -- divorce is always a personal trigger for me -- and to realize I didn't have the moral right to sentence her to a passionless life.
That was two years ago. I look at Bethany's life today. It's not perfect. The man she fell in love with is no longer in her life and she's not in a hurry to meet someone new. She wants to better understand herself and not bring her daughters into a situation that won't last. She and Doug are incredibly amiable and excellent parents to their now almost-grown daughters.
Funnily enough, Bethany's life is sexless again, but this time it's by choice. Which leaves room for passion and possibility.

Why Do Women Cheat? The Top 30 Reasons, According To Women
We hear it again and again: the gender gap between unfaithful spouses is closing as increasing numbers of married women admit to cheating on their husbands.
A 2011 study conducted by Indiana University, the Kinsey Institute and the University of Guelph, for instance, found that 23 percent of men and 19 percent of women had reported cheating. (To put that in perspective, research from the 1990s found that 10-15 percent of women reported being unfaithful, according to ABC News.)
What's to account for the uptick in cheating wives? To get some answers, we went straight to the source, asking our female followers on Facebook and Twitter to tell us why they think women cheat. (Curious to know why men cheat? Click here to see what our male followers had to say last month.)
