Meanwhile businesses from coffee shops in Seattle to retail stores in NYC are charging men more for the same goods/services than women. If you’re a guy, or have a son, you shouldn’t find this funny.

This is institutionalized discrimination and what happens next isn’t far from what Nazi Germany initially did to the Jews or Jim Crow laws did for African Americans.

Discriminating against a gender, or skin color, is wrong. Protest Banca Kristal and expose their employees.

Hmmm. I can see tailoring products to appeal to different demographics, including women, but entirely separate bank branches seems a stretch. It would make more sense to have female-only buses, since on mixed sex buses women risk being groped and ogled, but nobody’s proposing that for buses and I doubt groping and ogling are serious problems in banks.

Assuming this isn’t shot down on the basis of its obvious discrimination, it would be fun to get observers to time the waits in the female-only banks and compare them to the male-allowed banks. If the waits are shorter in the female-only banks, bingo, there’s a case.

However, it will be more fun just to wait for the transgender crowd to show up. What will the bank’s policy be about guys wearing dresses?

How about they really get a good laugh and open an expat only branch that specializes in helping the people that can actually spend more money here instead of putting restrictions on the ATMs. Hire people that can understand the different languages and be of help to us older retired folks that could sure use the help.

An investment of about US $15 million? The customers must get facials, manicures, pedicures, etc. while doing business in the bank. Pobricitas!
In fact, Central American Date, the online financial reporter, just called the country an ineptocracy, meaning a place run by the inept. The Urban Dictionary describes the term as “a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing,
and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers”

I’ve been to three county fairs and a goat race, and thought I had seen it all . . . until now.
