Charging different prices for different people isn't illegal. It's the basis of ladies night.

What I want to know is how can you tell if someone is gay or not. People think I'm gay. I'm not. But there are people who keep telling me I should be true to myself. And I should. And I AM. Which is why boobs are just great. They just brighten your day. Just like "TA-DA!!! IT'S TITTIES!!!" and you make that public domain sound of the asian girl in amazement. WOWWWW!!!!!!

I think some cities/states have determined Ladies Nights to be illegal... after lawsuits from the exact same types of dudes who think a heterosexual awareness month are a good idea.

It does depend on state law. Iirc in California only private clubs can discriminate on gender.

But discrimination based on race (or faith, or a few other things) is prohibited nationwide at the federal level.

I’m right there with ya pal. Everyone thought I was gay growing up, but I liked boobs enough, I had a pair installed.

You should try it, they’re great!

It's okay, just accept it man, seize the gay!

I imagine they just take your word for it. Not some science-y thing.
