Women-only art exhibition at Edinburgh Art Festival

Article here. Excerpt:

'At the exhibition, only work by women artists is displayed - and for the first month, only women were allowed in.

The organisers are now letting men in - but for most of the month of August they were turned away.

Sarah Wilson said: "It's kind of an experiment - it's a two-month exhibition and the first month has been solely for women - men are not allowed in.

"I don't have a police badge that means I can throw them out on the street but I wanted to create a space where women can work together with other women."'

London art exhibit will feature men-only month

Exhibits unique to the male experience. Men only for the first month. Why's everybody getting sooo upset about a little old thing like that? I mean, aren't there still plenty of female-only places these days still?
