'Picasso' artworks put in female toilet as part of art gallery response to court ruling
www.abc.net.au
Multiple artworks in the style of Pablo Picasso have been relocated to a female toilet at Hobart's Mona, following an adverse court ruling which found a man was discriminated against when he was turned away from the women-only 'Ladies Lounge'.
  • 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.

    They don’t want actual equality, they want harmful inequality for the group that used to benefit from it.

    …

    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.
