Pick the bones out of this one

It's got it all; gender pay gap, pink colours, beards, gender identification. It's the PC full house

This guy proves beyond all reasonable doubt that you don't have to be female in order to be a b!t©h.

I'd just walk out of there.. this guy's got too much bloody time on his hands

I think good on him. He proved a point. Equality is equality. Seems counter productive to have a campaign to highlight inequality (of wages) but then treating people with inequality (on purchase price).

.....This, from the man who has his own gin bar at home.

The guy had a point, you can’t have one price or price list for blokes and another for women, were it the other way round it’d likely have resulted in a public prosecution not a private one.

That said, it’s gotten both Brewdog and the Equality gap issue a lot of column inches and clicks at the cost of a rather petty and laughable court case, all for £1000 and costs. I’d say that’s canny advertising if I were a teeny bit cynical.

Haha

Dr Bower is obviously very sensitive, bored and a twat.

HTH

I'd pay the 1 pound more and have a man's drink in a man's colour. Bloody poof

And that has relevance how?

I serve genders equally at my bar, and sometimes the result of that has been rather fruitful

Well then...since you asked....
Like a lot of stereotypes, gin being labeled as a "woman's drink" is no different, and there's some historical basis behind it...."back-in-the-day"...18th & 19th century, while men had their own ale-houses to frequent, women had dram houses, gin houses, etc....mostly staffed by women, sold by women - to women, etc.....hence the nickname "Mother's Ruin", as there's been speculation that their kids were breastfed gin-tainted milk....thereby ensuring a whole new generation of customers later on down the line.
It's also the reason that gin was originally perfumed, in order to increase it's appeal to the fairer sex.

Well you better hope you don’t run in Deegee, D6Nutz and myself in a dark alley and we decide to show you how ‘girlie’ we are

You homos all going to bum him, aren't you?

Fecking gin drinkers.

Sounds like the three of them go out cottaging together.

Had to google that term D, more concerned you knew it off the top of your head

Maybe you do occasionally get off the couch!

You think I get off the couch??
I'd have to get out of bed first.

Nah....there was some area or stretch of Newcastle Quayside that was known for the "cottage-industry-crowd" back in the day, IIRC.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
