Supreme Court Sides In Favor Of Straight Woman In Reverse Discrimination Case [VIDEO]

We are living in a time where DEI was rolled back and so are court cases that can be tied to it.  The Supreme Court has unanimously sided in favor of an Ohio woman in a reverse discrimination case.  She wasn’t discriminated against because she was a woman but allegedly because she wasn’t a gay woman.

Marlean Ames claims the Civil Rights Act was violated while she worked for the Ohio Dept. of Youth Services. She’s accusing her gay boss of giving promotions to two gay candidates instead of her. She claims she was first skipped over for a promotion, in favor of a gay woman, and then replaced by a gay man after being demoted. Ames says her original filing was thrown out because she failed to meet specific “background circumstances” and she’s part of a majority group. This does not mean Ames won her reverse discrimination lawsuit, but it gives her the chance to retry the case.

The unanimous ruling could make it easier in some parts of the country for people belonging to majority groups to bring such “reverse discrimination” claims. The ruling means Marlean Ames’ case will return to lower courts and edges closer toward a trial or settlement.
