I couldn't care less about this festival. Let them do what they want to do.
Anyway, from what i understood, "cis-men" was allowed, they needed to be due to construction, technicians etc, but they where "held" in what by the organizeres was called a "man-pen".
- MaxBarraclough 8y agoThey were allowed, but clearly discouraged, and that's enough to be in breach of the law. From the article: > "No differentiation based on sex was made between visitors at entry," the ruling said. However, it added that "public statements which clearly discourage" a certain group from attending an event amounts to discrimination, and therefore the festival was in breach of the law prohibiting gender-based discrimination.
- belorn 8y agoThe organizers had made public and explicit statement that "cis-men was not allowed", but then did not enforce it at entry. Also, a "man-pen"? Just imagine if the targeted demographic was something else, like Muslims.
