But the festival has one very notable policy: Currently, only women, non-whites and those who identify as LGBT are allowed to apply for an early-bird price of $19.25. Straight white men, on the other hand, will only be allowed to apply starting March 15, and they’ll have to pay $25 to do so.

Just make out with a dude, pay the gay price and move on with your life. Don't make this a bigger deal than it needs to be.

What the hell is wrong with society? Why is every little problem caused by the white man? I'm getting sick and tired of this shite

They are doing it to make a point. If the world isn't completely fricked up, itll be changed.
Forcing someone to bake a cake or prepare flowers but letting this go would be the height of hypocrisy

There's no way that's real.

Is there some sort of lgbtqr ID card?
Someone is going to get screwed, not sure who at this point but that can't be good.

This was not ok in the 1920's but is ok now?
ETA: The premise that this standard literally says that LGBT, minorities, and women are different than white men.

Yea, since the extra $5 is what would keep me from going. ![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/Iconrolleyes.gif)

That's absolutely hilarious.
People complaining missed the entire point. The festival prices themselves are part of the comedy.

I can't wait til they finally push it too far, and the real backlash happens

Lucky for me I'm a butch lesbian trapped in a man's body.

Wage Gap oriented comedy festival? I'm not going to go, but it's only because I imagine I'll laugh too much.

i can't imagine a way around this issue
what people often call "loopholes"

I ain't white, and if I saw this, I wouldn't go. Racist/sexist/poor assholes running the joint. Just because someone works hard, is in a stable mental state, and was born with white skin, they shouldn't be discriminated against.
