groups or classes cannot be excluded on the basis of their belonging to some particular class. However individuals within any class can be excluded on the basis of their actions.

For instance, in your personal strip club (which you referenced above) you cannot exclude women, however if Renda were to show up with a sign stating that you and all your employees were going to hell for being in your strip club, they you could toss Renda even though she was right.
