im not up on my legal jargon... but i just meant that they couldn't not serve because "thats not the kinda food a man of his size should be eating."

it would be like a salesperson not selling a tube top to a woman who visibly shouldn't be wearing one. you cant say, "Well a woman your size shouldnt wear this..."

Or like denying someone with a super emphysema voice a pack of cigarerettes at a 7-11. (yes! i knew a better analogy would come up, thats the 4th one i typed)
