- female golfer not allowed to compete in tournament at her own country club; club officials called HER FATHER, not her, to tell him of the decision. And this is in Massachusettes, the state that allows gay marriage!
- Ithaca College in NY considers drug use by RAs to be grounds for immediate dismissal, and did fire an RA for marijuana use, but allowed an RA who admitted to raping a student to keep his job.
- A private school asks a female referee to leave a game because they do not believe that women should be in a position of authority over boys. Props to her colleague, a male ref who also walked off the field with her.
- And it's not enough that some doctors and pharmacists HAVE the right to deny women contraceptives, but now, some doctors in Canada are refusing to do PAP tests because of "religious objections". WTF??? Then don't become an OBGYN! Gee, I wonder if they'd have regligious objections to treating a man with erectile dysfunction? Somehow I think not.
All I can say is...don't let anyone tell you that the struggle for equality is over, because that's bullshit. I need a drink.
