Party company Pinkalicious wins right to ban men from lesbian dance parties
A PARTY company specialising in dances for lesbians and bisexual women has won the legal right to ban men.
Pinkalicious was given the green light to stop men because they might pester women for sex.
Director Julie MacKenzie hailed the VCAT decision a landmark, saying it made Pinkalicious the only women-only party in Australia, the Herald Sun reports.
Ms MacKenzie complained to the tribunal she couldn't stop men attending the parties "even if I know they intend to hit on women".
"It is a major concern that heterosexual males will attend the Pinkalicious event in the hope they can achieve their desire for a sexual experience with multiple women."
VCAT ruled in favour of Pinkalicious this month, with Judge Marilyn Harbison noting no objections were raised after the proposed man ban was advertised.
But Men's Rights Agency director Sue Price slammed the ruling.
She said it contradicted Attorney-General Rob Hulls' move to open up elite men's venues, including the Melbourne and Athenaeum clubs, to women.
In May, Mr Hulls slammed private men's clubs as "a throwback to a bygone era" and said he wanted them to lose their exemption to anti-discrimination laws.
Ms Price said Pinkalicious was given special treatment. |
