Numetro FAIL for sexism

Arthur said:
While you're about it, please also put in a report objecting to single-sex schools, single-sex prison cells, single-sex toilets, single-sex clothing, single-sex sports. They are obviously a far greater attack on "gender equality" than a little playful fun by NuMetro.

Oh Arthur, I thought you were done. I'll engage with you seriously, but not when you're out to mock and insult me.

I saw nothing playful in that poorly worded cheap-ass poster printed out on the manager's desk-jet in a last-ditch effort to pander to the lowest common denominator. It's as insulting to women as it is to men.

Why would you refer to women as the "lowest common denominator"? :eek:

I have a good mind to lodge a complaint with the South African Commission for Gender Equality

One must pick their battles after all.

Jibe, perhaps chide. But not mock or deride. I'm sorry you felt thus, and apologise unreservedly.

I do still think your crusade is quixotic.
 
Sterkinekor does exactly the same...

GG is a strictly FEMALE ONLY event. Males are not permitted under any circumstances to participate in the GG event.
Ster-Kinekor reserves the right to refuse admission to any male who has booked a ticket to participate in the GG event, whether in error or not.
Ster-Kinekor will, at its sole discretion, allow tickets purchased for participation in the GG event by male customers to be exchanged in accordance with Ster-Kinekor Theatres readmission policy.

If you read up, you might find where you referred to my opinion as idiotic and 'stoopid' (classy). If that's not an insult to you, is that your idea of a compliment?

And bwana, that's very cute and all, but go build your strawmen elsewhere. I'm not interested.

Nice to see that Ster Kinekor at least has the class to go and put together a decent website and readmission policy ... I'm just going out on a limb here, but I'm guessing that this was somebody at Numetro Canal Walk's personal idea to rip that idea off, and just stick up a last-minute printed poster because why not, right? It's not like anybody would notice and complain. Oh wait...

And ld13, seeing as you spotted the Ster Kinekor thing, do you feel motivated enough to lodge a complaint about it? I can't personally save the whole world, you know ;)
