Can you help me to understand why it is so important for Augusta to have a Female "Member"? Are we then to say we need to do away with ALL clubs and organizations that segregate on the basis of sex? Shall all the YMCA's allow women and all YWCA's allow men? Boy and Girl Scouts be abolished replaced by just Scouts? What about locker rooms? Shall we say one room for all because we don't want any descrimination....where does the line lie?
Before you think IM being too sarcastict here, think a bit. Augusta is a privately owned club. They allow a particular event to USE their facility.
Why (as long as they don't dictate who can be in the event) do they then have to invite someone they do not want as a member into their private membership?
Where does a persons right to associate with other like minded people to the exclusion of other like minded people end? Does it exist at all? Are we all to be forced to associate with people that we do not want to? By what moral imperitive is it evil for people to form clubs of any kind with exclusive memberships?
