Ms Alex O’Brien, an Australian ‘feminist, not the fun kind’, is a blithering idiot. She owns a Melbourne cafe (Handsome Her) which charges men 18% more than women ‘to address the gender pay gap’, and gives female customers priority seating

House rules (pictured) at Handsome Her detail the cafe's 18 per cent premium for male customers

Our thanks to Dave for this.

If everyone who read this gave us just £1 – or even better, £1 monthly – we could change the world. Click here to make a difference. Thanks.

  1. I wonder what sort of outrage would ensue if a pub charged women more than men due to the tax gap. We could also charge women more because they live longer. It would certainly be a great way to never serve a feminist customer (cuckstomer?) again. Hooray!

    Also, from the pictures I’ve seen of this Café, whatever this woman classes as “priority” seating must be pretty rubbish.

  2. She is relying on feminist bigotry to attract and keep clientele so let’s hope that she goes out of business.
    The unconscious irony of rule #3 is priceless. Respect goes both ways, but if you’re a man you can go to the back of the queue and pay more for poorer service.

  3. I watched an interview with Ms Alex O’Brien in which she stated the 18% overcharge is not compulsory, she was hoping that men would go along with sympathy.

    Otherwise as we all know such action is a clear breach of discrimination laws.
    I would be curious to know how she would deal with a transgendered/non binary person( would she accept their gender if it meant no extra charge ?).

    I would go as far as to say that the law of economics will triumph over this. People are amazingly fickle when it comes to putting their money where their mouth is.

    In the end its a silly stunt like so many we hear about it.

    isn’t it wonderful to virtue signal without actually giving up your time, resources or money to whatever cause you believe in…
