I'm a little irked by this sentence in the article:

No, it's not. Refusing to serve gays is discriminating against gay men and lesbians because you have a personal viewpoint.

Yes, and so could the women if they paid for the table. The douche in the texts isn't saying they can't get into the club if they aren't all 10s, he's saying that the club won't give the women everything for free just for gracing the club with their glorious presence. Gasp! Having to pay for something just like the…

While I agree that this guy is an Orbitz bottle full of dumpster juice and someone should let a sack of scorpions loose in his widdle clubhouse, there's one other significant difference between their reservation policies for bachelor and bachelorette parties. You'll find it next to the words 'Table Minimum'.

Breaking News - club promoter is shallow!

Which is why this "policy" isn't shocking/horrifying at all. If what they're SELLING are the girls, and they become known as the place where all the "whales" get comped, then the club is dead, dunzo, kaput, over.

You generally have to pay to reserve table at a nightclub because not only is it a space to sit (limited commodity), but it also comes with (HILARIOUSLY marked-up) bottle service.

"The policy appears to mandate that men who want to reserve tables can do it sight unseen, but that tables of women must include group photos."

This is horribly misleading. The promoter is not disallowing "whales or hippos" to come to the club, he's (or she) is refusing to comp them an $850 table unless they're hot. The promoter's job is to promote the club, and compensating hot girls for de-facto modeling is a big part of that

This is what happens when you try to get free shit from sleazy people.

Guys must also pay $4,000.

Agreed. I don't know why people are so shocked that he wanted to see pictures of them. Promoters in general will give you stuff if you are attractive because that's who they want at their events. However, the guy should have stopped messaging her when she declined his offer. That makes him a little desperate.

Right. That's what I commented upthread. It's not that she was asking for a table, it's that she was asking for a comped table. If you want $4000 worth of their product for free, then they sort of have the right to decide if you deserve it, based on whatever sexist criteria they feel feeds their bottom line.

Wait does that read that a table of men is 4k minimum and that a table of women is comped? I think the photo policy is ULTRA gross (as is the accompanying "hot bitches' only policy) but I think that kind of evens it out a little as far as the requirements between the sexes.

If you have the gall to ask for something they could otherwise sell for $4,000 for free for 15 strangers, I'm pretty sure they have the right to ask you for something that ensures they get some value out of you. Not saying that these dudes aren't massive douches, but if you literally say "I should get in for free with…

But feminism isn't about *not* criticizing women ever, and this particular woman acted in a shitty, entitled way. I think it's wrong to mock someone for poor grades alone, but when someone is not a stellar student but believes she deserves to be treated like one and then blames minorities for what pretty clearly seems…

You said it. She had AVERAGE grades and did stupid things, like try to take her case to the Supreme Court. What do you think usually happens when people do dumb things on such a large scale? They get talked about. Nobody is saying she needs to die. But she does sound kind of entitled and dumb.

Yeah, but if the top student at that school has a 3.8 and the top student at your school has over a 3.8, presumably your school has better teachers (so students get higher grades) or more AP/IB classes, which tend to be weighted higher than a 4.0, so outside of that 10% program, your application would be more…

No one was called a slut and no one mocked her body.
