Just got an invite to a party and the organiser was levying a charge which was reasonable to cover their costs.
BUT
The charge was highest for single guys, lower still for single ladies and lower still for couples. I appreciate you can probably vary your charges to maximise profit BUT if you're just trying to cover costs should you be so blatantly sexist? |

I think it's done to entice single females to attend as historically they are lower in numbers - personally I don't agree with doing it that way as in order to cover costs I need to know how many are attending and the easiest way to do that is to charge per head. That's my finance head on though |

"Until the day some men stop being idiots in regards to swinging, they'll always be charged more. "
Sadly this is true
Personally i prefer to see charge per person - equality |

....sorry if this sounds a bit harsh. ....but unless single guys are vetted....and if that means charging them more, and insisting on them being party verified. ....single females and couples will be reluctant to attend. .that's just our take on it of course. .. |

I get where you're coming from but tbh don't think charging single guys an extra fee vets them at all - word of mouth does that |

Supply and demand etc. The equality part of me doesn't like it while the Economist in me can understand why. I guess I'll just have to stay on the fence for this one.
Although the idea that charging me more money will equal them being "safer" doesn't make any sense. |

But he's right - in some cases single men ARE charged more.
He doesn't have to have a load of veris or meets to know that |

"if you are running the party you can limit the number of guys. you dont have to try and scare people off by pricing them out. "
Party wise Laid - who are the ones that don't turn up? Single men, single women or couples? |

"No doubt the ladies on here having no problems with single males being charged more have no desire for equality in other aspects of society?"
Did you seriously just type that??  Am sure the Ladies on here aren't to concerned about how much others have to pay into a party once they and the people they get chatting to are having fun and event runs smoothly,, no more than the guys would care how much the ladies were charged in,,, each look after their own pockets and their own wellbeing and enjoy the site and the parties if they choose to go to them as it should be |

if you read MY comment you would have noted the words "the ladies on here having no problems" as opposed to your conclusion jump that I meant every female. |
