Court Says Ladies Night Not Sexist
http://www.aolnews.com/nation/articl...ution/19618312
Men sick of having to pay full price at bars and nightclubs where women get discounts on "ladies' night" have failed to win sympathy from a federal appeals court, which ruled this week that such promotions don't violate the U.S. Constitution.
A self-described "anti-feminist" lawyer, Roy Den Hollander, sued over ladies' night drink specials at several New York clubs, arguing that they discriminate against men. The case went to the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan, where judges ruled against Den Hollander on Wednesday.
"The guys are paying for girls to party. I don't think that's fair," Den Hollander told the New York Daily News, vowing to escalate his case to the U.S. Supreme Court. "It's a transfer of money from the wallets of guys to the pocketbooks of girls."

I dont get it either you change it to any other race/religion and it is wrong.
It is a women's world now.
Considering that younger women are making more than younger men now.

Not really. They're quite young, and without children. There's far worse.

This lawyer is a D-bag. Also, any notion that it's now a "woman's world" because women "aged 22 to 39 with no children and no spouse" out-earned men in the same category in "39 of the 50 largest US cities" is so fantastically absurd it's on par with the idea the moon landing was faked or that Elvis still lives.
From the same article: "the average American women still earns 20 percent less than men".

He sounds like Alfred G. Rava, who goes to women only giveaways and then sues when he doesn't get something.
