Why is it legal to charge men entrance fees for clubs?

[Anonymous]

Can someone explain why it's legal?

[Rainie_]

It's their business, their choice. They need to get money in somehow and not just from drinks. I don't personally know any clubs that let women in for free. However I can understand the idea. A lot of men come to clubs for women because they want to dance and hook up with them. But if there's a lack of women and the club turns into a sausage fest then customer count goes down and the club loses money. If people know there's not many girls at the club they are less likely to go. But if they have free entry for women, more of them are likely to come, and customer count goes up.
I know it sounds like a strange strategy but it actually works.

And of course it's perfectly legal, how is it illegal in any way exactly? A club provides a dance floor, lights and DJ/music, these things costs money. Why should they have it for free when they can earn money from it?

In California it's absolutely illegal to charge different prices. Same cover charge for all the everybodys.

Also illegal to have ladies' night at the local carwash, or bar, or... any place of business, actually.

[kaylaS91]

Because exempting an entire gender from being charged for entrance, or charging them a different fee, would be silly and twisted af.

[Asker]

But they do that.

[kaylaS91]

... who does what?

[Scrambledagain]

Yeah they do that all the time. Women are paid to go to clubs. I know 3 women who get paid to go to clubs. Women pull in the men and therefore the party and therefore the money.

[kaylaS91]

@Scrambledagain sounds like a pretty sketchy club. Are these women strippers or something? v

[Scrambledagain]

No. Normal clubs. It happens a lot. For a club to be successful (i had the misfortune of helping the running of a small one for a month) you need people and you need them to buy drinks. To bring men, you maximise this by bringing women. So many clubs pay for women to come. Also normally hot ones, to make the club look good. It also helps balance the ratio of men to women out. I don't want to go compete with other guys if there are like 2 women to 10 guys lol.

[kaylaS91]

@Scrambledagain... clubs don't pay women to go inside. They'll simply waive the entrance fee for women who come before 10pm or something. A bit messed up, sure. But you do realize that the alternative would be clubs having sausage fests 7 days of the week and I can't imagine they'd stay in business very long if that were the case.

[Scrambledagain]

Exactly, you right. Clubs have a "no sausage fest" policy. girls nights or waivered entrance fee or cheaper entrance happens all the time. But some Clubs literally pay a handful of women to come. They are the party starters. They bring their friends and guys to get it going. And there is also a pick up artist tactic that uses the same principle: Some master Pua's get like 10 numbers in the week. They tell the girls to meet them at a specific club. The guy then goes to the club owner or manager and brings these women to the club for them. In return, the club owner gives him vip seats and discount alcohol. On the night, the guy looks like he owns the place because he is vip, knows the manager and has all these "girl friends" around him. He wins, the club wins and sometimes the ladies too.

[kaylaS91]

@Scrambledagain ok... what's your point?

[Scrambledagain]

lol... ok my point is you right. But clubs also pay a few women to come to the club to make the club look good.

[kaylaS91]

@Scrambledagain yes, that's correct.

[musicbrain5]

I never understood this. Why not just charge everyone?

We put our faith in feminism to stop sexism and feminism only thinks it is sexist if it happens to women. If any business charged women, but not men there would be all sorts of hell to pay. Meanwhile all these feminists claiming to stand up for equality are more concerned about man spreading because they want to control how we sit despite it being caused by biological differences in men and women.

[Opinion Owner]

It is private property so they don't have to abide by certain laws and are free to discriminate up to a point. Segregation and such is illegal in most forms, but not if it is based on gender. Therefore sexism is perfectly legal when it comes to forms of segregation, unlike racial segregation which is illegal. There will be no change in the laws as long as our chosen group for equality, feminists, are most commonly the ones benefiting from it. This would require an outside change, or for people to find a way to discriminate against women so bad, they demand the laws be changed for their own benefit.

[zorro8888]

Because a club is a business. Businesses need to generate forms of income such as entrance fees.

Did you really think they care so much about creating a fun environment for people just for the hell of it?

[Asker]

Why don't women need to pay?

[zorro8888]

Women do pay.
They're more likely to get discounts and special offers because if they're are too many guys the club loses value. Like I said it's a business, if you want to sell more/bring more money in you have to give the customers reason to join.

No different than a restaurant handing out coupons so you come back.

[Cmasterson]

I guess because majority of the time men go to meet females and the bars and clubs want the ratio of women to be more than men.

[ConsultantIsBack]

Yap this is why

[cth96190]

It is a business, so it can charge admission.
The important question is: are you stupid enough to pay it.
If you want to meet women, nightclubs are one of the worst environments in which to do it.

[truthhammer]

becuase the women are free and the women will attract the men

men are the money spenders and women just leech off men at the clubs... true story. women aren't equal and our traditional culture is made to support that. were both happier that way

[ConsultantIsBack]

Seriously Lots of times women get in free. Esp if they are hot they get away with anything, can wear anything as long as wearing heels. My life is so unfair

[Red_Arrow]

Have you tried wearing heels to see if you can get in free? lol

[ConsultantIsBack]

@Red_Arrow haha no, i should tho huh?

[Prof_Don]

A club loses value if there are too many men in ratio to women, and clubs aren't charities. They are businesses.

[QuestionMan]

To limit the number of men so that there aren't too many men per woman.

[Asker]

I know the reason but why is it legal?

[QuestionMan]

Because a business has the right to conduct itself as it pleases so long as no one is being hurt.

[Asker]

Could I charge only black people to enter

[QuestionMan]

That's illegal since it discriminates against Blacks

[Polocrew]

Come to ato son, We give free ins to dudes that can bench 225 or chicks who are skinny with above Cs. Rush ato or die

[MadeInAmerica]

So the club can make money. . . .

[Asker]

But how is it legal?

[MadeInAmerica]

Just like they have the right to refuse service they have the right on court to also charge entrance fees to some and not others.

[Anonymous]

That's way messed up! Should be illegal!
