Again I say, and notice that no-one has refuted the point, this is not a question of her religion, but her subjective interpretation of what that religion requires. There is NO rule in Islam that prevents her from wearing the pants provided as an option. She clearly doesn't think the pants are modest enough, but that is HER feelings on the matter, not some kind of religious requirement, like the Sikh turbans.
She is trying to bend the rules to her culture, not to her religion. This is not protected under law, nor should it be.
