And like Gamma, I agree - it's their party and they can exclude if they want to! And people can write if they want to as well.
As for some disgruntled persons thinking about a lawsuit...I think their time would be better spent bringing the X6 killer of the KC student to justice!!!

it has and i am aware and as with everything it is not without its limitation just like free speech. the best analysis is on a case by case basis.
if you have boys only schools certain things are likely to flow from that .....make all the schools co-ed and then the exclusion of women becomes more nonsensical.

LETTER OF THE DAY - It's Satire, For God's Sake: KC Old Boys Must Lighten Up
THE EDITOR, Sir:
Professor Carolyn Cooper sure made a big bed to lie in with the column 'KC old boys desire male sex' (Sunday Gleaner, November 9, 2014). Fact is, Cooper's article, as I understood it, was a satirical piece at best, funny for the most part as she tried to deliver a subtle message about gender bias and/or discrimination in today's world.
It was not to be taken so literally or so seriously as we've seen by some comments made online, and letters to the media. The word 'sex', for instance, has many meanings. In this case, it referred to either of two divisions, male or female. KC old boys, therefore, preferred an all-male (sex) event for their reunion.
So if you're comfortable about your sexuality, there's no need to panic. It's all literary, so lighten up and try to find the message within.
