What a shameful embarrassment of a man!
Maryland “Freak State” PING!
Why would any self-respecting man want his nails done at a salon? I’m sure there are any number of metrosexual outfits that would welcome him for a mani-pedi, anyhow.
I regret that I have to disagree. These are (I hope) unintended consequences of anti-discrimination laws. The $15 entry fee clouds the issue a little. If the range charged women $100 to shoot while it charged men only $15, because on average women miss the targets more than men and that creates some additional maintenance expense (I don’t know if that is really true, but for the example it doesn’t matter), it would be obvious that charging women more would be discrimination. (Substitute race and it is more obvious, I think.)
Don’t get me wrong. I favor ladies’ nights at bars and anywhere as an attempt to get more women to frequent the establishments. But this is what you get when you pass anti-discrimination laws...
So, they actually let him in, then. I was thinking that the salon was women-only, and that’s why he pitched a fit.
Pretty much NSFW

I think we agree that it is the anti-discrimination laws that screw up the issue. I think golf clubs should be able to exclude blacks. I also believe the consequences of being so racist should be able to force them into bankruptcy as they are protested, the businesses of their members boycotted, all their members shamed into leaving the club. Any government enforcement is violating their freedom of association.
