'Skiing in Engelberg: girl power in the Swiss Alps'

Article here. Excerpt:

'Male readers are probably now thinking two things: “Man up” and “Three female skiers in Engelberg? Unusual…” To address the first point, the growing popularity of women-only ski classes and clinics suggests that I’m far from alone in finding an all-female environment a more supportive and forgiving one in which to learn.
...
The premise is simple: female skiers and boarders who book at least four nights’ accommodation in Engelberg during Ladies’ Week (which runs from January 19 to 27 in 2013) receive a free lift pass for the duration of their stay, saving £136 on a four-day pass (£187 on a six-day pass). Participating women also benefit from a complimentary run with an instructor, spa access and a schedule of social events throughout the week, with free entrance to night clubs and drinks in selected bars.'

I don't object to all-female environment. I also don't object to all-male environments. In fact, I remember when it was okay for both to exist. That seemed equal to me.

But then the feminists came along and wanted to ban all-male environments but keep all-female environments. They objected to all-male golf clubs but wanted women to have all-female gyms. They wanted women to participate in the PGA but did not want men to participate in the LPGA.

And they claimed that was "equality."

Yeah, right.
