Why though, wacka? You're assuming their motives

what motive could there be when a corp has a policy of "no <insert race>"?

Racism. Practicality

so its pretty safe to assume the motive is racism then..

Sidestepping to another protected characteristic, religion, should a company set up to maintain and run mosques and further the Islamic faith be banned from preferring Islamic applications?

Should a womans refuge be banned from preferring to hire women?

why cant men be hired at a womans refuge?

in fact... wouldnt it be preferable to have some men there?

Nope

The 'customers' might have a preference for women

thats just going to psychological mess them up more

It's what happens now

they need to get back to some resemblance of normality...

Because muhxxtoxicmasculinity

in the real world... men exist... they cant hide forever

they need to be around men to realise #NotAllMen or whatever

Besides the point though, both those examples would be considered reasonable by todays standards

Tbf, when people are in a mental unstable place, pandering (I.E. hiring only women at womens shelters) might not be awful

So if those are considered reasonable, it proves there isn't a black and white standard

When someone is so broken, you might need to nurture them a bit before you can bring them back to standard society

And if there isn't a black and white standard, the question then becomes "Who are you to decide what justifies unreasonable discrimination?"

By what metric are we deciding?

its not black or white... its a basic foundation of protecting individual rights

Except it's not

In it's current form

You don't have a right to work at someone else's business or organisation

These rights are in opposition to each other

No you dont

Im not saying... as you suggested... to start building mosques.... Im just saying you dont have to discriminate... that has nothing to do with accomodating anything more

But the person doesnt have the right to discriminate on the base of protected characteristics

But you have to define what discrimination means

of course you dont have a right to work at someones business.. no-one suggested that..

I think DC has the right idea with politics being protected too

DC?

Washington

Im saying you have a right not to be discriminated against just because you are white

Sound suspiciously like bollocks, wladfa

For certain values of "discrimination", wacka

@wacka Why not, Why should someone be forced to hire you even if they don't want to based on your race?

Now you're arguing in the abstract

nobodys forcing anyone to hire anyone ... ?!?!
