I'm not sure but isn't it illegal in the US to have a preference towards a certain gender in any business even if its volunteer work?
There is a certain person here where I go to school that blatantly told me they were giving precedence to males volunteering for a load in and load out of a concert coming into the area. I'm considering filing a complaint with the Board of Regents about this person but want to make sure I'm understanding it correctly.
In the email that was sent out it stated that the first 25 emails to this person would be on volunteer crew for the load-in/load-out when confronted about me getting in after a female friend while she didn't get into the volenteer position (I emailed about 25 minutes after she did). The Person responded with "Thanks for you feedback Jordan, the reason that you got it before (Female Friend) is that we gave preference to men because they will be used for load in and load out. If you have any more concerns please let me know."
