- In short: Tasmanian art gallery Mona has hung artworks by Pablo Picasso in a female toilet cubicle in response to a failed court bid to exclude men from a women-only art installation.
- In April, a court ruling found Mona discriminated when it refused a New South Wales man entry to its Ladies Lounge.
- What’s next? Mona curator Kirsha Kaechele is appealing the discrimination ruling in the Supreme Court.
Unfortunately this is what a lot of people who claim to be advocates of equality want. They don’t want actual equality, they want harmful inequality for the group that used to benefit from it. That doesn’t provide justice for anyone, it just perpetuates injustice, especially since many people who never actually benefitted from the previous inequality will be harmed by the reversed situation. We need true inclusivity, not this role reversal bullshit that so many popular ideologies espouse.
Edit: see this comment as evidence.
Get some reading comprehension skills. Pushing back on pearl-clutchers claiming it’s “counterproductive” when they’re really just butthurt about it isn’t at all the same thing as “want[ing] harmful inequality.”
Point out where I actually endorsed the tactic – hint: you won’t be able to, because I did no such thing – or retract your false statement.
No thanks. I have no interest in engaging in your little debate games. Good day.
I’m not “engaging in little debate games.” I’m calling you out as a liar for falsely accusing me of being sexist.
I said good day.
FYI, you aren’t Willy Wonka. You don’t win just because you condescendingly try to dismiss me.
