An Inclusive Litany

2/21/94

Four women have filed a complaint with the Florida Human Rights Commission claiming gender discrimination. They were fired from their jobs as bartenders and waitresses after the bar they worked at began catering to a gay clientele in an effort to drum up business. They claim they were fired because of their heterosexual orientation. The owner said some patrons complained that the women had a bad attitude towards homosexuals, and acknowledged that the bar's new clientele preferred being served by other gay men.
