L.I.F.E : Living In Fear of Extinction

« on: March 15, 2008, 04:29:13 PM »

Why the hell do bars have ladies nights? The concept is the most illogical business decision i've ever come across. During ladies night as we all know, women get a whole lot of stuff for free. Are they really deserving of such treatment?

I think not. The reason is simple.

Men on average drink more than women, so MEN and not women spend more money in bars. We men are the biggest client for clubs and bars. Under normal circumstances business establishments do their best to please their biggest clients. Clubs and bars however seem to value their most valuable client the least. Instead of thanking men for being such lovely customers they slap us in the face by having ladies nights where our wallets are raped while women giggle gleefully as they sip free drinks.

I tell u i get really mad at the whole thing coz i know that if us men didn't drink as we do bars wouldnt afford to have ladies nights. We basically pay for the whole charade.

Guys we need to unite and fight against the continuing humiliation that these entertainment joints subject our wallets to. We need to launch a galvanized campaign to force such businesses to end the ladies nights nonesense and have gentlemens nights instead. We as the biggest client deserve it!

Let the struggle continue!! Viva

P.S and we should also force them to throw in a few dozen ladies to give us free massages during Gents Night. We deserve this too!!

You seem to forget that other than drinking, women are probably the main reasons why most men go to bars. So having a ladies night is actually doing some good to men, since this guarantees plenty of women in that place. It's a brilliant marketing strategy and instead of complaining, you should be on the look of such bars  ;)

On the other hand, if you are inviting a girl to go out with you (and I mean INVITING), at least you know that you will have to pay only half of what you would be paying without the ladies' night thing going on  ;D

Exactly what I was about to point out. ;) Ladies Night was invented by guys, FOR guys.

you men wanted ladies night so women could crowd up the bars and you men can pick and choose.  plus you men like to show how much you have and buy drinks for friends, strangers and even the bartender sometimes.

think of it...bars would lose money if they had gents night.  who would buy the liquor?  as for your few dozen women to give you the massage, i think your problem is solved by buying a few drinks for one of those "ladies" at the bar and you can get all the free massages you want that evening.

your revolution is squashed!!! there shall be no free gents night!!!

I'm not really in the habit of buying women a drink anyway, unless I brought them to the club or we're friends.  If a woman really likes you then you don't need to buy her a drink, IMO.


Ladies Night seems to be anti-Asian  anyway....In my experience, in China, women don't like to drink much and prefer that money is saved.

Now, fellas for most clubs from Monday to Thursday they have less customers and the creation of ladies night really made things change,as the rest of u have mentioned above. It's an attraction technique for we men to show up in the club and at the same time,most ladies feel more safe in an environment with more ladies. For example,if there were gents night,u'd realise that it'd be only few or no lady, just cuz of the fear of being in the midst of many men,whom about 70% have no respect for women. It's unfortunate that up till today and mostly in this country foreigners who show up here, have no regards for women,they tend to see them as a sex object. A guy would walk up to a girl who doesn't wanna hang out with him and say,"u'd make a lot of money" . Why do we men think that any girl in the club is a bitch or a whore...Guys,i'm always ashamed of ourselves when i get complaints like that from the females. WHat is wrong with us....
  Sorry,i had to divert a lil bit from the topic.

hey promo!!! it's been a long time.

well you've hit it on the head again.  sometimes women just want to go and enjoy the atmosphere.  not to be picked up or solicited for other things.  if we're approached and we just want to hang out with our girls then please guys don't get offended and press on with the adjectives.  not necessary.

also, women please don't feel the need to tell a guy off just because he approached you to dance or for simple conversation. if you don't want to be bothered just say so.

Promo, unfortunately most women in the clubs ARE bitch*s, sl*ts, wh*res, gold-diggers looking for a long-term BF or a husband, naive virgins looking for a boyfriend, etc.  We all know most guys who go out to bars aren't the good ones.  So obviously any girl who goes out clubbing knows she's asking for trouble.

   Well,i respectfully Disagree with the point about good girls staying at home. Most good girls also go to club just for fun,as Ren Da pointed out . For instance a girl who have been working the whole week,who decides to go to club to dance or cheer and clear herself off the stress of the long week,wouldn't be classified as a bad girl or a girl who came with group of friends just cuz of a friends birthday or party wouldn't be classified as the same. Oh, i know there are lots of the kinda girls u pointed out there,but a person like me for example can easily differentiate a whore(money maker) from a bitch(just sex loving) and also the normal girls too. Maybe i'm a Genius in that..heheh. Anyway,the point is,no matter what kinda girls that come to club,it does not give guys the right to disrespect or touch them in an uncomfortable way.But rather try to start a simple conversation,and when she says "not interested" or smply shows no interest.....first, it tells the guys that she is not a Whore. Secondly,even if she was,she doesn't want that particular guy. Guys have to take it lightly wen refused,afterall it's a 50-50 condition of reply ..(Yes or No)
Peace..

Promo, I never said guys have the rights to harass women in the clubs. :o I also clearly used the word "most" (which I still believe is fact).  You can believe you're a genius at whatever, I have female friends in all walks of life and women are more likely to confide in their women friends.  In life, you'd be surprised at who are the real sluts/whores and who aren't.

As for women who tend to reject guys in clubs...fact of the matter is this: if you are a HOT decent-looking guy, most women will accept at least one dance - even if it's girl's night out, and even if you're not her type.  Should guys "take it lightly" when they're rejected by (possibly drunk) women at a club? Heck no.

As for the whole "working for a week" thing: believe what you want to believe.  The "good" girls I know don't go out to the clubs.  The naughty ones are always out at the clubs.  As for the 'in-between' type of women who have both a good and a naughty side, do you think they're good at the clubs and naughty at home? Yeah, I don't think so.

Fair.

Well Khabzela, the naughtiest girls are probably the ones who stay home...because what you're prohibited from doing at the clubs can be done anywhere at home... ;D

On a serious level, girls know that a girl's night out at the clubs (of all places) don't work out well because there's always at least one girl in the group who'll go AWOL.  So any girl in here telling me they're out at the clubs PURELY and 100% ONLY to hangout with their female friends is LYING. ;D

Hi, new here and thought ill add my 2 cents!

I can only speck for myself, and say i go to clubs to have fun and a dance with my girlfriends. I myself have a boyfriend and not looking ealsewhere, but even when i was single it was more about my friends then about finding guys!! But i know there are girls who just go out for guys and vice verser.

I soooooo don't agree with the comment about only good girls stay at home. Oh no,no...it is possible for some of us girls with brains and standers to want to go out and dance all night in a club - its called 'having a good time and enjoying life'. And I don't agree that all girls in clubs are bitchy!! if your having a good time with your friends, you shouldn't notice others.

I always get alot of attenstion from guys in clubs, and to be blunt im used it. Me and my friends are beautiful (big headed you might think, but its true, im stunning :o ha,ha) .... Im also a nice and friendly person. so if i guy put the moves on me, i just kindly decline and thats, that its never really an issue.

And as for the Ladies Nights, bring it on..those of us who want to go out and shake our cute butts will do it in style. while, having a drink for poor souls at home being......being good ;)

 ;D

Sab,I never said u mentioned that.....Read again and understand. Anyway,there's no way i can agree that most bad girls go to club. Maybe that's how u see it, but u need to open up a lil bit more to understand it's not always like that.

interesting convo.  welcome summerquin.

i'll say there are many different types of people who go out to bars/clubs and for many different reasons.

i'm always surrounded by at least 2 or 3 cousins so if we decide to grab some drinks or listen to some music somewhere...it's about being in that environment at the time and enjoying our time there.  we're a fun group...we crack jokes on each other all night and dance together most of the time.  yes men approach us all the time and will often come and dance with us on the floor.  as for me i prefer to dance by myself because i'm not restricted and i don't like guys coming in my space.  but i will dance with someone and thank them and return back to my cousins/friends.

i think everyone had valid points but i don't think good girls stay home and bad girls go out.  you should check out the bookstores. the barnes and noble is worse than the clubs. it's like a meat market. people go there and hook up and leave together.

 it's pathetic when i'm there studying and folks i know are in there checking out who's there so they can talk to them.  it's funny too to see people holding a book and they haven't turned the page in 20 minutes because they're people watching.
