The name of the club

:facepalm:

The Staff call them Chocolate women
as their code - Fools

This isn't uncommon. Certain clubs will turn you down for not being attractive enough, or if you're male and they want the gender ratio to be in favour of females so the club looks more appealing, and so on.

It's awful and disgusting but I'm not in any way surprised.

The owner said he was just made aware of it
and is now looking into it

They just look like normal people :shrug: Weird rules for a club, they are just missing out on extra customers.

Its Against The Law to Block Women
because of their color.

The Owner Must Sack the Cocky Manager

Well i've been knocked back from clubs for not being gay!I asked how they knew and they "could just tell".I used to like those clubs cos they opened late and the music was good.

How many clubs have done this? It doesn't sound common, I've heard stories of gay people bringing their friends to these clubs with no problem :shrug:

Will. 30-09-2015 07:32 PM

Will1999 is not happy about this...


Why are they branded as fat?

I know somebody who was turned away from a gay club in Liverpool because he was straight, they were willing to let three girls in but not the guy. Weird policy.

This was around 10 years ago.It was only one club.They had previously let me in before but when different bouncers took over they would'nt let me in.

Crimson Dynamo 30-09-2015 07:55 PM

they are a bit ugly and one looks like a bloke. probs just wanted to lower the munter quotient

People get turned away from clubs all the time. Why is this suddenly news?

Because he asked for photographs before hand and then asked them to stand back while he looked them over, he also engaged in a text conversation where he said the "chocolate" women had to be above average looking to get in, but it didn't matter with white women it's a bit different to someone rocking up half pissed or people turned away because they are wearing inappropriate footwear.

disgusting behaviour

Like I said... it's not the first time women have been turned away for how they look. Including white women.

And if this was a thread about white women being turned away, they would equally be getting sympathy from people

I don't doubt that. It's just that it's been going on for years! I remember my cousin weeping into my mother's lap because she couldn't get into a club in the West End. Was it because she was Jewish? No... it was because she was a female and apparently not 'hot' enough. I don't see this as an insult to black women, I see it as an insult to women in general, it's not any worse because they're black.

well tbf it does say that their colour was mentioned. I understand it's not just a problem to do with their skin, it's because they're women too but say If I were in London off to a club and I heard the bouncer say that they only let particularly good looking Irish girls in, I think I'd be more offended by the fact that I was being discriminated against because of my nationality than on how good looking I was. Obviously both things are offensive though
