I’m saying I don’t buy that reason. There are no laws (afaik) that prevent exactly what I described. Federal discrimination laws typically refer to employment or public places, not private events.
I don’t believe there are any laws that make that illegal. There are plenty of black only recruiting events, there was one at my college. If you can find me a law that says this is illegal I will bite my tongue, but from what I can tell it applies to employers, not anything close to recruiting events.

This is an employment related event. Anti discrimination laws apply to applicants.
If it was just a networking event, no problem, ban men

I swear to fucking christ
Are you a lawyer? Because the legal team of this event made this decision
I’m not citing case law to you just because you think you know better than a team of actual lawyers. Jesus.
good lord, relax. he’s obviously saying he thinks they should be permitted to have women only events.
Sure. I agree. But they can’t have women only hiring fairs. It’s the law. They could be sued.
we heard you the first 12 times, dude.
Clearly not understanding though
we understand. the point is that it’s shitty that it’s illegal. it shouldn’t be illegal to have a women only event.
chill… just discussing how i feel about a topic on a discussion forum. not that serious, you’re under no obligation to reply.
This statement didn’t come from lawyers btw. I suggest you look into non discrimination laws and youll see why i feel the way i do.
