Participation is both paid and voluntary. Rules clearly written out. Private to boot. But I am sure she will eventually find a court that will enforce the perversion.

THere are pros and cons to this issue...in rfeality, it's not about discrimination, or sexual orientation, it's about a club being able to limit membership to people who enjoy each other...25 years ago, a cc membership belonged to the male, only..his wife and children were part of his family..If HE died...the widow was often no longer welcome..the membership lapsed..odly enough, the other wives were the ones who wanted this...they didn;t want single women around..then, some clubs allowed widows to have associate-type memberships..Thenm when the divorce explosion began in the 70's..with no-fault..women sued,a nd won, to not be excluded...what usually happened in a divorce,the wife and kids stayed inthe house, in the burbs..the male moved to the city, or to another town..now, because divorce is so rampant, and because golf memberships are so scraece, and hard to obtain..we have a long waiting list...we have several formerely married couples who are now BOTH members.., and with new spouses...and on, and on..so,if this female couple....were granted equal status,and THEN they split up, and BOTH wanted to stay, and bring new spouses..well...like rabbits...
