The bicycle case is typical of the
wide variety of issues that have
arisen under famed Title Seven
of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Women have also complained
almost always with success
about hiring practices, dress
codes, height requirements, smok
ing privileges, hours of work, and
seniority rules.
“ Title Seven," said one court,
“ rejects the notion of romantic
paternalism toward women and
seeks to place them on an equal
footing with men."
In fact, men too have won vic
tories under the same law . I or
example, the Commission found
sex discrimination in another
company that gave half-hour
lunch periods to its women em
ployees but only 20 minutes to
men.
Nevertheless, Title Seven does
not apply Io hardship situations
lhal ure not based on discrimina
tion between Ihe sexes. Take this
case:
A saleswoman accused her de
partment manager of viola! ing
Title Seven by deliberately mak
ing her life miserable. She said
he made fun of her, gave her hard
assignments, and bawled her out
viciously.
It turned out. however, that her
fellow men in the same depart
ment had the same lale of woe.
Since male and female employ
ees were being treated with equal
harshness, the Commission decid
ed to turn down the woman's
complaint,
Ih e Commission said she had
not proven a violation of Title
Seven.- but merely that the de
partment manager was a very
nasty fellow.
