Woman complains about male-only gay bar excluding women

This is just silly. I wouldn't expect to be allowed inside a lesbian club, there's no reason for her to expect to be allowed in a gay male club either.

as a gay man, i'll just say gay clubs are a lot better when they have exclusionary policies.

it is probably too late, but could we get some color codes to denote different speakers? I had a really hard time following that.

She got one thing right though: There is no such thing as "reverse racism" and "reverse sexism". They are both just racism and sexism, respectively.

female-only spaces = empowerment

male-only spaces = sexism

this is why

MissCait · 2012-03-03T05:33:24+00:00

Did it occur to her that they want males only for a reason? Gay guys just wanted a place to meet and hang out, without women being there.

Doesn't believe in anti-racism, sexism and heterophobia? Oh my word...

"You have to be part of the minority to understand the discrimination"

Let's pretend for five seconds this were true. Men are still the demographic minority. This woman it so batshit bonkers it's not funny.

So let's say she wins this battle and is allowed entrance to the gay bar..........then what?

This was approved by the discrimination board.

Their reasoning was that the reason to exclude the women was to keep heterosexual men away.

And of course discriminating against heterosexual men is just fine.

I like how she mentions transfolk and infers we don't identify male or female at all....wow. If she wants to use full LGBTQ inclusion as her argument, it would be useful for her to actually know what she's talking about.

I have no problem with gay male only, or lesbian only or whatever clubs. I don't usually go out with friends to them, so I don't particularly care. It's a nightclub. There are probably at least a dozen more in melbourne that would gladly accept her.

She can complain all she wants but if the owners of the venue want it to be male only then there's not much she can do about it.

One thing, when you whiteout the names, indicate somehow who is who. (Green, Red Blue) or leaving the first name in, or pixilate the pic so we can tell who the 3? people are.

Wish we had an all male gay club here! Damn!

There are no words here really. Just. What?

Jesus Virgin Christ son of Palestinian Virgin!

Can you imagine what would happen if a man complained about discrimination about lesbian bars excluding men?

He would be castrated in the public square and they would deport the rest of him to Guantanamo under terrorism charges.

Fuck this society!

tl;dr

Private establishments should have the right to refuse potential employees and patrons for literally any reason. One more reason (among many), that women should not be allowed to vote.
