California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Bobb v. Municipal Court, 143 Cal.App.3d 860, 192 Cal.Rptr. 270 (Cal. App. 1983):
[143 Cal.App.3d 864] On appeal appellant concedes that the questions put to her, when administered in a gender-neutral context, were constitutionally valid. However, she contends that when the questions are posed as part of a discriminatory pattern they constitute a denial of equal protection. (Yick Wo v. Hopkins (1886) 118 U.S. 356, 6 S.Ct. 1064, 30 L.Ed. 220.)
