And that is where this diversity stuff is missing the point. They should work more on encouragement than enforcement, then maybe they wouldn't make so many enemies for themselves

The only "enemies" that Caroline is seemingly making are apparently old white men who aren't the target clientele of their bar at all.

Stuff like that doesn’t help the cause at all though, in fact it could even hinder it. 

Fighting a gender imbalance with a policy that in itself is sexist isn’t the best way to address the imbalance. Its manafactured diversity, it doesn’t help create actual diversity. 

Having said that, a policy that requires ONE female performer per night isn’t exactly the end of the world. Their venue, if that’s what they want to do then go at it.
