And the action heats up,, ACLU is helping her sue to wear pants to the prom....
You might have heard someone say, “there’s no right and there’s no wrong,” but you have to ask yourself, is their statement right or wrong? And I’m sure you’ve heard someone say, “I ...[text shortened]... h thing as absolute truth.” I must ask, “Are you absolutely sure about your absolute statement?”

I think it boils down to whether the Public has the right do something that is appreciated by only Some of the Public.
So for example, if we hold a public childbirth class, can a couple of guys show up to talk about duck hunting? Can they scream discrimination and violation of their rights if they get thrown out for sounding mallard calls during the deep-breathing exercies? I think we would all say, "No, that's stupid."
So if the public decides that having an activity that promotes male-female bonding specifically because there is demand for that:
a) why is that wrong? There is no sort of discrimination -- anyone can attend. They just have to stay on-topic (just as the duck hunters would be allowed to participate in the deep-breathing lessons if they chose.)
b) why should someone who shows up and wants to talk about male-male or female-female or human-dog or chimpanzee-oak tree bonding be allowed to disrupt the proceedings?
If there is demand for dances that celebrate "pairings" more broadly -- fine, they can be held as well.
