If a private business wants to make rules like "ladies night' or whatever and someone doesn't like it then they don't have to fucking go there.

Individually people should be able to do/say anything they want. But once you start a business or a corporation, you become a sort of government. You provide services, make rules, etc. I would argue business influences society more than government.
Would it be ok for a business to offer deep discounts only to whites?
How is that much different from restaurants refusing to serve blacks?
Just charge blacks $1000 a drink and you have legal apartheid?
You don't have to go to a resturaunt to survive...
Automobile insurance is a private industry, but you are required to have liability by the government. Yet, men are usually charged double what women are, with identical driving history. That IMO violates the rights of individuals who are unfairly discriminated against based on being born the wrong sex.
If you go to a bar and have to pay more because you were born the wrong sex or race, that is equally unfair.
