How can this not be illegal?

RT-AC66U · 2020-01-17T20:44:08+00:00

In CA you can sue

Pillbug53 · 2020-01-17T20:59:04+00:00

What is that a ticket for?

thereslcjg2000 · 2020-01-17T21:17:52+00:00

LMAO, even if you somehow believe in the wage gap no one thinks it's that huge.

JoeSchmoe777 · 2020-01-17T20:38:55+00:00

Not sure where this is but it is most likely quite illegal. And most likely quite avoidable, just identify as a woman.

heeeymrtangerineman · 2020-01-17T21:44:52+00:00

Seems to be a common practice. Just now i did a google search for the quoted phrase "General admission - female" and found many such events.

Uzzer_lozer19 · 2020-01-17T23:51:18+00:00

Hmmm not really sure on this one as many bouncers will let in girls to a club than guys to make it more 'fun' or 'desirable'

Who's to say you're not a woman..?

Clown world, say you're a trans minority.

ScottieG86 · 2020-01-18T06:34:21+00:00

The answer is easy. Identify as female. We have been given the cheat code for easy life. Abuse it.

Although this is a good post, the title does not say enough about its subject. This forces people to click and read before they can decide whether they are interested. It also makes searching impossible.

If everyone did this, the subreddit would become unusable. Moreover, it means that your post will fail to reach some readers because they won't know what it's about.

So please don't do it in future. Take the time to describe your link, and save the time of hundreds of other people.

When making a title, it's best to assume the reader doesn't know what you're talking about - but don't go overboard with every detail. Then check if there are any words you can cut out without losing any important information.

Pretty sure it's illegal

Throwaway_Old_Guy · 2020-01-18T01:47:57+00:00

If men stopped buying tickets to events that advertise price based on gender they would see a large drop in revenue, and maybe (just maybe) see how short-sighted that kind of policy really is.

They might not get the discrimination part of it, but realizing that it's costing them money is a start.

Commando484x · 2020-01-17T23:39:41+00:00

This is Pretty much any club prices I've ever seen

2020-01-18T06:51:35+00:00

Imagine doing this to black people.

mikesteane · 2020-01-18T09:59:56+00:00

More women in clubs = more bluepilled men who think that wasting money will get them into bed.

WorriedSysAdmin · 2020-01-17T21:58:10+00:00

Ticket is for???

synaptastik · 2020-01-18T05:14:42+00:00

It's actually capitalism and libertarianism at it's finest. Supply and demand...

Happy_Little_Misery · 2020-01-18T12:57:30+00:00

Imagine the outrage if it read white/black, straight/gay or christian/muslim instead of man/woman. The entire thing would be shut down within hours.

But apparently, gender discrimination is a bigger thing in modern society than any of the above. I saw it on the New Year's celebration party, female students paid 50€ to enter the party just like male, but they got free drinks and snacks in bar. Oh well, I am never visiting that shithole again. Only way to battle these things is to speak with money.

PicklesAreMyFriends · 2020-01-18T13:07:11+00:00

I saw something similar on a kink event page: £35 for single men, £10 for single women (£25 for couples). Another page had £40 for men and £0 for women!

Don't worry, I have a spare $20000 lying around

Statistical_Evidence · 2020-01-21T04:02:22+00:00

It is illegal

mr-logician · 2020-01-18T02:32:10+00:00

You should report this.

Rocket6801 · 2020-01-18T00:06:39+00:00

Just say that you are a female, are they going to say you aren’t, if other people do it, why not if it means cheaper tickets

Dontdoabandonedrealm · 2020-01-18T03:58:25+00:00

When someone says VIP expedited Entry.

What they really mean: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6SC-KleaUBc

ak_boom · 2020-01-17T21:08:07+00:00

I think this is wrong but if it's a private business they should be able to do what they want without the government bothering them.

This is from the OP on a comment in r/assholedesign

It's for chainsmoker tickets at a nightclub in LA Las Vegas. I think they are resident DJs there so its probably the nightclub causing that pricing not the Chainsmokers themselves

This is very common - It doesn't bother me.

Men wanna go to a club with more chicks than men and this is how the club owner is achieving this,And it's for the men.

Yeah it's annoying that women get cheaper tickets and free drinks but that's not the club owners fault now is it,blame society for that one
