'Today, however, acting justice Stephen Marshall of the supreme court overturned the tribunal’s order, ruling that the Ladies Lounge was not discriminatory.

The “intention was to promote equal opportunity by drawing attention to present and past societal disadvantage to women by providing them with the concept of a ‘flipped universe’,” Marshall said. “[It provides] women with a rare glimpse of what it is like to be advantaged rather than disadvantaged.”

He pointed out that the tribunal failed to consider structural discrimination related to women’s status in Australia. The case will return to the tribunal for reconsideration.

“The [Supreme Court] judge’s verdict demonstrates a simple truth: women are better than men,” Kaechele proclaimed on Instagram after hearing of the decision. “The judge sided with the arguments put forward by our all-female team.”'

“The [Supreme Court] judge’s verdict demonstrates a simple truth: women are better than men,” Kaechele proclaimed on Instagram after hearing of the decision. “The judge sided with the arguments put forward by our all-female team.”'

I am laughing not only at the speciousness of this claim, but the delicious irony of how this statement which was made by the accused in response to the verdict, in and of itself essentially proves that the motivation for the art exhibit was in fact, misandry.

It's obvious to anyone with a brain, anyway.
