How is that not discrimination? I don't have a problem with it, in fact I'd rather have it because it keeps the ration in the clubs at a decent rate. But how do clubs and bars get away with charging guys money to get in but not charging girls? They can't say "no cover for white people, 10 for black people." but they can say "if you have a penis it's 10 bucks, if you have a vjayjay its free"
I would think being that a club\bar is a place of business it would have to let people in at an equal rate or let people drink for the same price.
since when did discrimination become illegal? The club isn't a government actor so you dont have any constitutional protections against it. BTW, even if it was a consitutional issue, laws that discriminate based on race are given a "strict scrutiny" standard and laws that discriminate based on gender are only given "intermediate scrutiny"
PS a NY attorney filed a discriminate lawsuit for this exact same reason. He will lose miserably.
In NJ they already won that case.
Already won the case as in bars can no longer charge a cover based on sex in NJ? Please explain.
To everyone else: Yeah, gay jokes... one after the other almost quoting the same person right before you. Forget the "I don't have a problem with it, in fact I'd rather have it because it keeps the ration in the clubs at a decent rate." in the OP, just throw em out there.
In this day and age I'm just interested in how they have gotten away with it for so long without someone deciding to fight it with all the time and money they have. Go figure the most this topic has ever seen in court just happens to be in good old NJ. I'll do some more looking and see if it was brought to court anywhere else.
