City needs to focus on gender equality in workplace, not in bars

The city’s actions prohibiting bars and restaurants from serving ladies’ nights specials are anything but an anti-discrimination attempt. If the city wants to stop promoting stereotypes and societal divisions, maybe it should focus its efforts on making sure that men and women are treated equally in the workplace, especially in matters of equal pay for equal work.

After all, if I’m not getting paid as much for my work as the man sitting next to me at the office, I certainly can’t afford to pay as much for a drink as the man sitting next to me at the bar.
