Why do Internet dating sites charge the same amount for men and women?
Tangurena: There are a number of people who make a living sueing newspapers for running "ladies night" advertisements. So it would not surprise me that there are a similar bunch of people sueing dating sites claiming that any sort of pricing differential would be discriminatory.>Last September, after losing a Denver County Court case against Westword for a ladies'-night ad (at trial, he compared himself to Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King Jr.), Horner filed a complaint against this paper with the Colorado Division of Civil Rights - a complaint he offered to settle for either $7,000 (the amount we'd need to pay in order for him to never file against us again) or $20,000 (in which case he'd also promise to not teach anyone else how to file against us). And in February, the Division of Civil Rights found probable cause that a ladies'-night ad in Westword had discriminated against Horner although just a year earlier, the same director at the same division had determined that a ladies'-night ad in the Denver Post had not discriminated against Horner, and in his determination cited the judge's ruling in our Denver County Court case, a ruling that exempted newspapers.http://www.westword.com/2009-05-21/news/steve-horner-doesn-t...http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/10683429/detail.html
