Vegan Restaurant That Charged Men 18% More Than Women Is Closing Its Doors

A restaurant that declared it would charge men 18% more than women for the same service will close its doors at the end of the month.

Handsome Her, a vegan café in the Melbourne suburb of Brunswick, will close its doors on April 28, writing on Facebook that the two women responsible for running the business “are off to our next adventure up north where we will be doing some hands-on work, something we have missed sorely whilst being at 206 Sydney Rd, Brunswick.”

There is no indication that the restaurant is closing as a result of charging men more than women – a policy that was implemented back when the restaurant opened and only applied one week a month.

Now-deleted Boston Globe op-ed advocated harassing Republicans in public

The Boston Globe’s website on Wednesday published — then revised and, on Thursday evening, deleted — an op-ed column that said it was “serving America” to tamper with prominent Republicans’ food.

The piece, titled “Keep Kirstjen Nielsen unemployed and eating Grubhub over her kitchen sink,” advocated the harassment of Trump allies in public. It began with writer Luke O’Neil’s own animating regret that, as a waiter in a Cambridge restaurant, he once missed an opportunity to urinate on the entree of conservative pundit William Kristol.
