A court in Australia has ordered Hobart Museum of Old and New Art (Mona) to allow entry to men into a women-only art exhibition following a legal battle.

The Tasmanian civil and administrative tribunal found the museum to be in violation of the state's anti-discriminatory law and ordered Mona to allow "persons who do not identify as ladies" to enter the exhibition.
