Is Race for Life sexist?

[nighteyes]

I want to know which clubs let women in for free and cheep drinks. Cause I certainly have never been to any.

i didnt say i was consistant, just right!

A club in Forfar, which has sadly now closed, used to charge women £7 for entry with free drinks all night. Guys, or women who didn't want the deal, paid £5.

Although it sounds like a recipe for rape, I think it was mostly just good fun. These kind of promos are very common in clubs.

Tired Freudian references aside - your mother played my mighty skin flute like a surf crowned sea nymph trying to rouse Poseidon from his watery slumber!

this has been going on way too long!

It is one of our most successful events because it is a unique opportunity for women to come together in a non-competitive and celebratory atmosphere.

When you call me a useless druggie, at least you got half of it right... But when you call me a hopeless alcoholic, I'm only hopeless after 9 at night.

Sorry, but it can't be sexist. If something says you must be male to do something, it's sexist (apparently) but it doesn't work the other way round.

Indeed, how long do you think a men-only car insurance company would last before the outcry began?

Are men a group to which a specialist market can appeal to, given that they have higher insurance premiums than average?


Also, jesus christ if some male egos don't just collapse if you bring them out of the shelter of male privelege

My mother look part in Race for Life earlier this year. I refused to sponsor her because of the sexist policies, and gave a separate donation to a breast cancer charity instead.
