Default Is this sexist? Also is it illegal?
I'm going to a Beyoncé night at a club in a few days and if you get there before 11 you get in free.... but only if you're a gal!! Wtf. A tad fuming that I'll have to pay and my girlfriends won't.
What's your thoughts ladies? Does this count as discrimination? Is it allowed?

My old schools canteen gave free packets of love hearts to all of the girls on valentines earlier this year so I told them it was sexist and that all genders deserve free love hearts so they made it first come first serve instead. Was quite please with myself tbh

Absolutely! My local club has started doing this too. It stinks of sexism and sleaziness.
