NO FEMALES ALLOWED
#1


For the first time in its 80-year history, Augusta National Golf Club has female members.

The home of the Masters, under increasing criticism the last decade because of its all-male membership, invited former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and South Carolina financier Darla Moore to become the first women in green jackets when the club opens for a new season in October.

I don't think they should have caved to pressure. If females want their own prestigious golf club they should begin creating their own. I feel the same way about young women who fight (legally) to go to a strictly all male school. I know this won't be a popular opinion but women should have been building their own all female network all along.

I agree, same deal with the boy scouts and all that. Don't even get started on the NAACP

Well the point made in the past is that a lot of business and networking gets done in places like that so to the extent they're excluded it might affect their careers.

I don't have a strong opinion about it though.

However, if I were an avid golfer and desperately wanted to play that particular course because of its awesomeness and the only reason I couldn't was because of my gender, I'd probably be pissed.

What if it were an all white establishment? Should blacks just go create their own course?

I guess I have more of an opinion about it than I thought. Smiley_emoticons_slash

I don't mind that some places discriminate & I say that being all for equality. I know that's a contradiction.

I am about as liberal as it gets in cases of equality, within reason. For example, a few years ago some tubby broad got pissed because the was too hefty to be a Vegas cocktail waitress and sued, but my take was that if an employer is hiring you for a specific look including appearance, they have the right to make that clear and turn you away if you don't measure up.

However, gender exclusion for its own sake is an archaic rule and should long since have been done away with. I wouldn't agree with them legally forcing Augusta to allow women, but they absolutely could have threatened to take the masters elsewhere. Money changes lots of opinions, especially when it's gonna be pulled.
