If this theater decided to have a black only screening for Black Panther would that be okay?

Yes, that would be ok.


It was also ok when theatres (way more than three screens btw) held screenings for "The Passion Of The Christ" and only invited members of certain churches to attend.


Kalyx is desperate to have another "GamerGate" type discussion, where he can once again go on long-winded rants from his very narrow viewpoint, where somehow women having become equal translates to him being discriminated against. "Now that you are equal you must admonish all forms of celebration of your identity. You can never take a brief moment to celebrate your journey here". We might as well eliminate Black History Month, since that celebrates a form of identity and as Kalyx lazily said "time is linear" so "past discrimination doesn't matter". I know a movie about a superhero that comes from an island of all-women and is an iconic representation alongside Rosie The Riveter in WWII and the women's "right to work" movement in the 70's is definitely worth crying "discrimination" against for three movie screens.



....Anyways, back to not commenting on this further. Also, DTTS and The Rogerer, please don't hijack and ruin this entire thread by making it an argument between the two of you.

I agree that people should be able to choose. I don't think Kalyx is mad about women being equal. Most people are just annoyed by the hypocrisy.

Not me. I want sex segregated spaces for women, not movie theaters necessarily but it certainly doesn't offend me.

As I've said though in a lot of the places they're doing this there's the simple legal question of whether or not they can refuse to honor a ticket purchase based on someone's assumed gender. Progressives have jumped the shark pretty hard recently so this will be a lot of fun to watch.

You are so low tier.

Here you are defending something you would absolutely rally against in reverse, and double down on some redefinition of what discrimination is, while calling people who's making a by-definition equality argument - the sexists. How wonderfully bizarre.

What the fuck is a 'GamerGate type discussion'? Is that where I curb stomp a bunch of you with facts and links while they go ignored for 10+ pages and I answer the same questions over and over? No... I'm not itching for that again. Ended up pointless then, it seems it'll be pointless now.

That narrow viewpoint of mine? Where I see people as equally capable of bigoted douchbaggery and hold not any one gender or race better than the other? I'm such a backwards ape. I'll widen my views in the future, so that I too can look at blatant discrimination and call it great and tell egalitarians they're actually the assholes. I can't wait to evolve to that point.

PS, the whole ending a post with a cheery smiley or whatever like 'hey it's all good guys, I still love you sexist creeps' is see-thru and lame. Rewrite that.
