That's right. A king size duvet cover costs more than a large (double) one. I never heard anybody call that discrimination.
Well, of course it is discrimination. Discrimination is natural. Why are people trying to stop it. I'd be surprised if anyone here isn't guilty of sexual discrimination. Can you imagine not being allowed to choose between a male or female person to have a romantic night out with? That's what the world's coming to. After all, it's not fair for the homos that they're born like that. Should everyone be forced to give them a fair chance? You can go on a dating site and select male or female applicants, but you're not allowed to do that for an employee. Does that make sense?

I agree with the more cloth, more cost, pay more. Simple economics
However , I wholeheartedly disagree with your analogy that suggests a personal choice in which sex to date is in anyway akin to discrimination in the workplace . You confuse choice with discrimination
I choose a red car over a yellow one. That’s choice. Trousers over shorts , choice . Beer over wine , choice. I am not discriminating against yellow cars or wine.
Who gets a job should be down to who is best (sex, colour and orientation are irrelevant - silly “what about a male model” arguments are obvious exceptions that add nothing to proper debate)
In the workplace, as an employer, I choose the person best able to do the job. Skin colour etc irrelevant to that. Give it to the second best because the best was a woman. That’s discrimination and that should not be ok
To draw parrelel with choice of date, partner or wife is trite. That’s a relationship between people. It’s give and take and compromise
Job interviews are not like that. Two reasons - one were are talking about people not objects (like cars and wine) and two is fully loaded power balance to one side
Discrimination and choice are not the same thing in my book
