More typical left wing hypocrisy. The feminists like those lesbians in NOW worked to force the YMCA to admit women based on all that bogus "rights", "equality", "fairness", etc.

But when the tables turn, it's different. The hypocrisy of the left has no bounds.

It is not just YWCA. Mills college in CA is an all-women college although I think they allow men in the graduate programs. Do you think they would allow an all--men college? Look at VMI

"But when the tables turn, it's different. The hypocrisy of the left has no bounds."

I guess we can interpret the left's version of inclusion as "admitting we can't live without men" without admitting it. Sorta reminds me of pretty much all womens movement successes. Child support...voting...liberation: Gifts of men seeking more than their fair share of arse! ROTFLMAO...I wonder if they will be homosexuals? LOL!

Well, lemme see, the YWCA ain't quite Christian no more, the members mostly ain't young no more, so why not 'Women'?

Problem is, they allow men a greater role in their organization and it chips away at the "women's" part of Young Women's Christian Association. So I guess it could just be "Association." That'll sell < /sarcasm>. Maybe "The Association." Might pick up people who want to get involved in a crime syndicate or else an intelligence operation....
