Get Used To It Already of the Day: The Contemporary Jewish Museum in San Francisco has asked that a guard employed through a private security company be reprimanded after he told a pair of lesbian patrons that they weren’t allowed to hold hands inside the museum.
As a crowd began to gather, the guard asked the couple to leave, but they refused, asking to speak “to somebody in authority.”
“The idea that in 2011, in San Francisco, at the Jewish Museum, this guard could be that out of touch was shocking,” said witness Jane Levikow, who was also at the museum with her partner.
Levikow made a point of noting that the incident took place at an exhibit dedicated to reflections on “the evolving public personae, lifestyle, and relationships” of well-known lesbian artist Gertrude Stein.
