: Okay. That term really bothers me too. I'd never heard it until I was

: was like... Wha? That is just something that is not appealing to me. I
: have friends of both genders. Yes, when I used to go out there was
: sometimes no males there but that was simply because nobody was available
: then. I just don't see the need to qualify it like just women going out.
: But I do know that some people are that way. My coworker was excited about
: this night out because there would be no men there.

It's doing the kind of thinkg guys wouldn't enjoy like watching old
romantic movies"like they con't make any more." Some women like to go out
a shop together or, who knows, evengo to see chippendales, though that
woueln't be my thing. We are also a bunch of women whose alternative to
this kind of night out is to sit in our houses alone n a sturday night.
We don't exactly find tons of dtes at our age and shapes, but it is better
to be together than sittin ghome alone either on the computer or watching
TV.

Peopele have all kinds of life styles and many of us would not want to
follow yours, but we do hear about it quite a lot, particularly on ASD,
where you shop, how many stores you go to, what you buy, all about your
daughter's dance classes, your issues with your husband, etc. Let this
guy, who is clearly not your type, have his joy with his wife.
