« Talking Down the Economy | Main | The Man in the Arena » March 7, 2008The Soft Bigotry of Ivy League ExpectationsHarvard University has announced that it will close its gyms to openly gay men at certain hours each day so that straight men who are uncomfortable around gays can work out without being made to feel uncomfortable. Any minute now, the ACLU and the Left and prominent Boston-area Democrats are going to storm the Harvard campus to condemn this example of hateful bigotry and accuse Harvard of being driven by a latent Christian extremist fundamentalism. Yeah, they'll be howling bloody murder and demanding that Harvard be required to undergo sensitivity training. Any minute now... Er, no, wait. That's not what happened. This is.

Hi Bill, I have no idea why you find this policy bad. Many commercial gyms have women only areas and women only health clubs are a growing segment of the health club industry. As the article notes, its only for a few hours per week in the least used gym in the Harvard system. This seems eminently reasonable to me. Posted by: Manish at March 9, 2008 4:12 PMPost a comment
