"Dress Code

Headwear is not permitted in the Clubhouse.
Gentlemen are required to wear jacket and tie in the Smoke Room and the Dining Room although casual golf wear is acceptable in the Club Bar and for lunch in the Ailsa Room.
Denim jeans, shorts, tee shirts and training/sports shoes are not permitted in the Clubhouse or on the Courses.
Ladies are permitted to wear tailored shorts."

In the Uk it is a crime to descriminate or to treat less favourably on the basis of gender,
Goods or services that are available to the public must be provided in a way that does not discriminate unfairly on the grounds of gender.

There are three ways that a service provider might discriminate on the grounds of gender:

* refusing to provide you with a service
* providing you with a lower standard of service
* providing you with a service on worse terms

If Jeffs kilt was being classed as shorts then by allowing ladies to wear shorts and not men the club is falling foul of the law
