When I wanted to go for a hair cut to a Barbers which is usually mens only, I was very specifically looking for Turkish/Arab barbers and not English barbers! I was somehow sure I wouldnt be shooed away or kind of insulted and had a better chance of getting a hair cut there . Why? :-)
but If someone randomly asked me
Who would you think would be more sexist - Devout muslim Afghan man or Atheist British White man? I would probably go with the second one.
Why Barber? because no appointments, cheap, they cut a lot of Indian hair short, many Indian boys near my house are sporitng excellent haircuts ( like Leonardo from titanic) also just wanted a bit of a trim and so on. Also Simple is good.
