Ladies night
 
I was told that Blue Fin (and subsequently Chop House) will no longer have Ladies Night half priced drink specials. It is alleged that a man recently complained to the management that he was being discriminated against because he was a male. He allegedly stated that he was declaring himself a female for the evening, and wanted half price drinks. When denied, he allegedly threatened legal action.
This is of course hearsay on my part. Does anyone have any knowledge of this? (Would a man actually do that?). I personally don’t believe that anyone would have grounds for an individual or class action suit, since similar specials have been going on for decades throughout the country. Even so, the management apparently feels that they would still have to defend such a frivolous suit should one be filed, and subsequently stopped Ladies Night.
Comments?

I heard the same thing. But, I'm not sure the lawsuit would not have merit. Just because it has been going on for decades doesn't diminish the argument.

The lawsuit could possibly have some merit. Laws have been changed that allow men to declare themselves as women and use women’s bathrooms, so where does the nonsense end?

But in ancient times (pre 2020's) men were men and women were women.

It's that bottom shelf stuff that no one want's to drink so let them have it. I like the Fenney Grill, cocktail hour is 1/2 price on anything they have in the bar.

Very true but the reason that they had a ladies night was to attract more females to the bar for men to hang out with. Back than unattached females typically did not go to bars.

OP, I'm going to step forward and apologize on behalf of all the men in TV for that boorish man's behavior...why it's just poor upbringing and bad manners that would have driven him to even think about trying to horn in on a ladies night drink special

Traditions must be upheld!!!

I'll bet this stinker even puts the toilet paper on the wrong way

After 49 plus years of marriage found the solution to how to handle toilet paper. His and hers.:a040:
