Don't see how you can argue sex discrimination here, and there is no legal protections for discrimination based on looks, so I don't see the case you can make here.

She'll be all right, though. She is a young and attractive female - no one has it easier in life.

Say what?

But for her gender, she wouldn't have lost her job.

Had she been an "irresistable male", her employer wouldn't have terminated her.

What part of this is ambiguous?

If she had been an unattractive female she would not have lost her job. It's not discrimination based on sex, it is discrimination based on looks.

But if the employer has a "thing" for flat-chested, heavily-acne'd, overweight, greasy skinned, high-pitch voiced women, under your criteria, this woman's appearance makes her termination justifiable?

Can an employer now say, "Due to your recent addition of full-body tattoos, fifty facial piercings, and refusal to shave your pits, even though your work is exemplary and without blemish, I'm firing your for cause because I'm sexually aroused by trashy, bohemian women." ?

This would make finding suitable assistants for Cappy virtually impossible.

You should not have to give a reason for firing a person...just do it.
