Toyota dealership inspired by #MeToo likely discriminated against men, state says

Now a man from New York whose application was rejected by Earl Stewart Toyota in Palm Beach County is battling the car dealership in court and seeking “back pay and front pay from the date the position was filled by a less-qualified individual,” along with damages and attorney fees.

At the time, the sales team consisted of 22 men and 5 women, a company publicist told the Miami Herald.'
