    Muirfield BULLIED by the media and the PC brigade into submission.

    What a sick world we live in.

    Go on, I'll bite. Why is it sick?

    Interesting that you're blaming the media and PC brigade when it was actually the threat of not being given the Open.

    Yes, the world is filled with injustice, evil and suffering.
    Golf Club admission polices are not the root of all evil.

    Perhaps you need to broaden your horizons somewhat.

    You think women being allowed to play golf is a sign of the sick world we live in? Maybe pay attention to everything else going on in the world instead of wasting your life watching football and crying about medieval rules being scrapped.

    Nah, personally I don't give a crap what they do, the point of my post, probably badly worded, is that if a private club can't ban women, then I assume I can join a women's club? Isn't there a women only gym in pontprennau?

    If you asked, you probably could go along to some WI talks.

    As for the gym - for what reason do you think there might be a market for women only gyms?

    It seems to me the course wants the penny and the bun, it can run as a male only club but then it would not be eligible to be on the open roster.

    It can be on the open roster, but then it must have an open membership, doesn't seem like bullying to me, it seems the members have a clear choice.

    While WI membership is only open to women, men are welcome to attend courses at our residential adult education centre, Denman College, and take part in many activities, events and campaigns both locally and nationally.The Women's Institute is an educational charity with a constitution that states membership is only open to women. Under UK law charitable organisations whose constitution stipulates single sex membership are entitled to restrict access to the opposite sex.

    You see, you do get it!

    If you wanted to go to a gym or swimming pool but the place had lots of sludges who ogled you in your skintight outfit, as unlikely as it may seem they'd want to but let's pretend, then there's a fair chance it would put you off.

    Interesting. But that loophole is a potential can of worms isn't it?

    Then you're shit out of luck because men can't have their own groups because sexism.

    Then you might find that there are many others in the same situation and capitalism comes to the rescue and opens a gym where you can jiggle around to your heart's content.

    No not really, Muirfield can have a male only membership, nobody is stopping it. However the R&A would then not allow it to host the open. The governing body for sports wants the sport to be as open as possible to increase interest in the game and to boost participation numbers, and as such increase funding. If clubs do not want to be part of that then they cannot expect the prestige.

    Lots of leagues and associations have criteria that needs to be met to allow access.
