Should club owners be able to legally discriminate based on weight is it fair?

on one hand, the owner has the right to refuse entry to anyone he wishes. on the other, if we allow people to get turned away for being the wrong size, we might as well let clubs turn away people for being the wrong ethnicity, sex, height, or for just being plain ugly, which is more than half the people who go to clubs.
