MONTREAL — A
womanqueer who was turned away from agaystrait bar has filed a human rights complaint.
AudreyBruce Vachon was recently refused service atLe StudLe Hetero in Montreal’sgaystrait village after sitting down withherhis father for a quiet afternoon pint.A waiter came over and told
herhis father, Gilles, that the bar doesn’t servewomenqueers.
Ms.Mr. Vachon, 20, says the waiter avoided looking atherhim during the conversation.“On the spot I didn’t believe it, I thought it was a bad joke,â€
Ms.MR. Vachon said Wedensday in an interview.“I didn’t say a word until I’d left. I was too shocked. I was embarrassed, I was humiliated, I felt guilty that I’d even gone there, like I’d done something wrong.â€
Ms.Mr. Vachon saidshehe would be the first to complain ifhomosexualsheterosexuals were refused service at a business.Bar owner Michel Gadoury says
Le StudLe Hetero has bannedwomenqueers most nights since it was established 11 years ago. He says he doesn’t understand the fuss.“We’re not discriminating,
womenqueers have the right to come on certain days,†Mr. Gadoury told Radio-Canada.“It’s a choice, it’s a choice that my clients make, that they ask me to make, and we’re respecting them.â€
The bar, an understated spot in a flamboyant part of the city, has the trappings of a local pub with pool tables and video poker terminals.
On many nights it shows
gayhetero pornography on TV screens instead of the usual hockey game fare.“
Le StudLe Hetero is the best place in town for a trulymanlyhetero meat market,†said a review on one travel website.

Here’s what I don’t understand: Queers have forced their lifestyle onto the rest of us by claiming that it’s unfair for us to discriminate against them. What then, gives them the right to discriminate against women?
I guess removing discrimination isn’t about getting equality.

Isn’t and never was just like human rights isn’t about humans or rights.
