The difference between a women 5 months pregnant and a man with the same credentials, from the businesses point of view - is not that one is a woman and one is a man - but that one of them is pregnant. If the male informed them that his career driven wife was giving birth in 4 months and he would be taking time off to care for the child...guess what.....
Why wouldn't they hire a female security guard? Why should the male even expect to be hired for this job?
You're advocating for -more- discrimination, as opposed to less?
(I don;t mind the idea of equal pay in pro sports btw, overpayed fucks)
They don't hire female security guards anywhere near as much as male guards in Europe and there is a reason for this discrimination. If you don't know the reason then I can't help you.
Yes, I think there should be some discrimination in certain areas, businesses shouldn't be forced to take men or women just because of their gender- which is real discrimination. To force a business to take a woman simply because she's a woman despite not being as valuable economically as the man is putting gender before credentials, am I wrong?
