Whackadoo 9th just ruled that womens only nude spas must allow nude men
Well it takes balls to tell the entire 9th circuit that their ruling is the "Swinging Dicks" ruling.

Judges Lawrence VanDyke called the court Woke.

So now a private women only spa must allow men in, nude, fully nude in front of women. Got to be some tie to the trans community men who think they have a va-jay-jay in.

So all women's spaces are now unisex. Terrific. That's what they get for demanding access to men's spaces. Shame, I preferred it the original way with distinct spaces for men/women, but when you sow the wind...

Payback for requiring male-only organizations to allow women to join.

I'm all in favor of allowing any private organization to restrict their facilities in any way they want. Private property is just that.

This is going to be difficult to overturn without affecting all the previous decisions forcing females into male spaces.

Women in general getting largely what they voted for. Sad what we've become but let them sleep in the bed they made. People in other countries are laughing at us; unbelievable to them some of the things like this that are happening here.

Germany, isn't it? Not an issue there from what I recall.

Recall the shower scene in Starship Troopers. Didn't seem to be a problem in Sci-Fi.

His dissent was 31 out of the 105 pages and begins on page 60. He used the phrase 3 times, but page after page tore their ruling apart:
quote:
Olympus Spa, et al. v. Armstrong, et al., No. 23-4031
VANDYKE, Circuit Judge, dissenting from the denial of rehearing en banc:
This is a case about swinging dicks. The Christian owners of Olympus Spa— a traditional Korean, women-only, nude spa—understandably don’t want them in their spa. Their female employees and female clients don’t want them in their spa either. But Washington State insists on them. And now so does the Ninth Circuit.

You may think that swinging dicks shouldn’t appear in a judicial opinion. You’re not wrong. But as much as you might understandably be shocked and displeased to merely encounter that phrase in this opinion, I hope we all can agree that it is far more jarring for the unsuspecting and exposed women at Olympus Spa—some as young as thirteen—to be visually assaulted by the real thing.

--

Yes, the introduction to this dissent intentionally uses indecorous language. But that is quite literally what this case is about. Male genitalia is precisely (and only) what the Spa, for religious reasons, objects to admitting into its female-only space. The fact that so many on our court want to pretend that this case is about anything other than swinging dicks is the very reason the shocking language is necessary. The panel majority uses slick legal arguments and deflection to studiously avoid eye contact with the actual and horrific consequences of its erroneous opinion. The “ordinary Americans” affected by the majority’s opinion don’t have that luxury. Squirm as we might, I think it’s only fair for our court to have a small taste of its own medicine.

I read that and apparently they have a problem w/ talking about swinging dicks, but not actual swinging dicks in front of children and women in an only female club.

How does anyone defend that?

The line for the womens bathroom is always long. Men do not seem to care if women use the mens room. It does not work the other way around.

In this case, erections, apparently.

I remember the first time I experienced this.
There were unisex changing/showers at the big indoor-outdoor pool in Stuutguart.
Growing up in the modest south, I was bit timid to use them.
So I went to the mens only. Well at the mens only there were teen girls leering in the entrance... Germany was, ummm different.

Many years ago I was in Paris at a topless revue show with a German acquaintance. I practicing my pathetic German, he his excellent English. We were discussing the prudish American attitude vs the German and French attitudes.

He commented that it should be against the law for your friend's hot mom to go topless on the beach around teen boys. lol, biology wins out every time.

Years ago, I was talking to a friend who had been stationed in Germany. He had a German girlfriend at the time. He asked her if she ever went to the spas/baths. She said yes, saying she liked to watch the American men. He asked her how she knew they were Americans. She said they were the ones with or hiding their erections. Eek
