Females' Right to Drink Free on Fridays Upheld
A stunning victory for female boozehounds and the men who drool over them at bars: Anti-feminist lawyer Roy Den Hollander has lost his lawsuit against New York bars for gender discrimination on "Ladies' Night."
The New York Post reports the Second Circuit Court of Manhattan's ruling:
A three-judge panel unanimously ruled that Hollander failed to prove that several popular nightspots—including China Club, Lotus and Sol—are subject to a law barring discrimination by anyone acting under government authority.
"Regardless of the veracity of this statement, we cannot agree that the state's liquor licensing laws have caused the nightclubs to hold 'Ladies' Nights'; liquor licenses are not directed related to the pricing scheme."
