Women-Only Craft Beer Forum Shut Down By Men’s Rights Activist
Vice ^ | October 19, 2018 | Beth Demmon

Posted on 10/22/2018 9:45:11 AM PDT by C19fan

The Women’s Beer Forum, hosted by Los Angeles-based Eagle Rock Brewery, is the latest victim in a long line of so-called “gender-based discrimination” lawsuits initiated by various men’s rights activists (MRAs), who are lashing out events and promotions designed for women.

According to its GoFundMe page, the monthly meetup—started by Eagle Rock co-founder Ting Su—was created in March 2011 after Su witnessed women get “pigeonholed by their male counterparts into drinking only specific beer styles. And when women asked me (a fellow woman behind the bar) about beer-style recommendations," Su continues, "some men would interject by sharing what they thought women should drink. After seeing this so frequently I felt compelled to create an environment that was less male-dominated than anything else in the beer world.”

HA HA!!! Leftist hoisted on their own petard. The article tries to spin it that non-discrimination laws have been twisted from their original purpose but the law is the law.

I’m surprised the transgenders took this one sitting down. Although, I suppose that’s how they handle things now.

How the lefties screech and wail like butthurt banshees when their own tactics are used against them.

Good. Also, shut down women only colleges, classes, jobs, companies, and any other discriminatory exclusionary organization.

With all due respect, go F yourself.

“some men would interject by sharing what they thought women should drink.”

A woman (my wife) is always interjecting what she thinks I should drink. I never thought of making our house “male only.”

That woman-only-craft beer idea isn’t bad, and in a society ruled by folks with brains (e.g., NOT progressives) it would be given the opportunity to sink or swim on it’s merits.

However, given the slime currently posing as liberals/progressives/swamp dwellers, they can drown in their own excrement.

And EVERYTHING proposed by a progressive is excrement.

Yeah, what about the other 20 or so genders. Turnabout is fair play, as they say. But only to illustrate absurdity.

There is a goose, and there is a gander.

Men never lie about beer.
