If I was old, financially independent, bored and open to being on the receiving end of legal action, I'd buy a controlling interest in the pharmacy around the corner and shitlord by introducing a woman tax.

Naturally the business is run by a woman, and when it fails due to these advanced sales-prevention tactics, she'll declare bankruptcy and have her debts cleared at taxpayer expense, and subsist off the income from a book and movie deal about how a female-owned small business entrepreneur was destroyed by the shadowy forces of the patriarchy.
Given that it's SoHo, however, she may be able to eek out a survival income from the business by cornering the local market of virtue-signalling hipsters. "Honey, you'd better pick up my Zoloft and Lorazepam at the 7% man tax store or you're SO not getting sex. Anyway, I hope my Tinder date on Thursday with Chad goes well. Could you drop me off?"

If this marketing gimmick works, then it was a smart idea. Never been to New York, but I think I'm correct in assuming that it's
chock-full of hipsters and SJWs, and I imagine many of them will go out of their way to shop at this pharmacy, even after they're forced to get rid of their discriminatory sales tax policy.

^My thought exactly. How dare they make assumptions about what I identify as depending on a social construct such as biological gender. How dare they.

Bitch got some free advertising but lost 50% customers. If you take into account that men work (and thus have more money), she lost even more.

Probably smart advertising really. I'm completely speculating here, but I imagine the business owner knows her demographic, and a pharmacy in super-hip soho probably has like 80%+ female clientèle. Going there for all their multitude of prescriptions, tampons/pads, skin care and bath needs, condoms, morning after pills, ibuprofen, baby care (loljk), etc. I imagine a lot of women that dwell in soho likely identify as "feminists" too so this sort of "stick it to the patriarchy" promotional gimmick will probably knock it out of the park.
Hell, there are barbershops where women straight up are not even allowed to go in besides to the front desk to buy a gift card. There was a thread about it and a lot of members here praised it. Chill.

What if you just identify as female?
That's how somebody would have to win if they decide to sue this store. Just their lease is worth big bucks. Some lawyer will take.
You can sue because you are a man being discriminated against. That won't work. You'd have to be a tranny.
I bet the store has a policy to not charge anyone the man tax that tries to argue about it.
Which forum dude in NYC wants to take one for the team, and can walk in heels?

Shitlording and going in there claiming you're a transwoman stuck in a man's body wold be hilarious.
Better yet I could see an actual tranny being discriminated against in a place like that, "You're not a woman ! get out !"

The real question, though, is what tax do they charge on Attack Helicopters like myself?

And in a place far far away, Uncle Sam and Bankruptcy are having a huge threesome with this pharmacy.
Nope.
