No men allowed.
That will be the rule on the the entire 19th floor of a new J.W. Marriott hotel being built in Grand Rapids, Mich.
A lounge at the hotel also will be reserved for women only when the hotel opens in September.
Spokeswoman Andrea Groom said more than half of all business travelers are women.
She told The Grand Rapids Press that they want be able to relax over a drink without getting hit on by guys.
The women-only rooms will have distaff-specific amenities such as special hair dryers, bath products, jewelry holders and chenille throws.
But the businesswomen will have to pay for the privilege. Rooms on the women-only floor will be about $30 more than the usual $229 rate.
Aleady men are bitching that its unfair and unconstitutional, I doubt that ploy will work since the Suprreme Court upheld some all male gentleman's club
I like the concept of all female floors yet I cannot understand the added fee, I'd love to hear the Hotel's excuses for the added fee.

It does strike me too, however, how women make less money and in this case are made to pay more. I totally agree that something must be done about this discrimination.
Perhaps, now that women form the majority of university students around the world, there is an opportunity for change. If corporations wish to hire the best people for their jobs, they better pay up. I hope it'll become a reality soon.
Cheers,
