Ladies' night end enrages and relieves Upon hearing New Jersey's top civil rights official Frank Vespa-Papaleo's ruling on June 4 that offering discounts on "ladies' nights" is unlawful because it discriminates against men, I strangely felt both enraged and relieved. In a world where women are still making only 77 cents for every dollar men earn while only five CEOs in all the Fortune 500 companies are women, I find it ridiculous that men would feel they are getting the short end of the stick.

In this case, the BFOQ is defined, the criteria for a BFOQ are listed, and the limits to BFOQ are discussed. Several real examples are given of cases in which a company has alleged a BFOQ exists.
