| Ladies and Dancing.
Posted: 6/16/2008 11:39:35 AM | I have read many a post about all the ladies saying they like to go out to the clubs to just Dance and let loose. Not to pick up men. In fact many of the ladies complain about all of the creepy men coming up and talking to them. Afterall they just want to dance and have fun with the girls. Fair enough.
Here is my theory and million dollar idea. If there was a night/dance club only for women and only women bartenders and staff would you ladies go? No men at all would be inside this "men free miracle." You would have no creepys staring at you, and no creepys offering to buy you a shot or attempting to get your cell number. Nope, instead you ladies could just dance the night away worry free!
So, is this a million dollar idea? Let me know if I should break ground on this new 21st century project! | |

How funny. People go to clubs to see and be seen, otherwise, what's the point of going? You can stay at home, invite the girls over, put cd's in the stereo, and dance at home if that's all they're going for.

Posted: 6/16/2008 12:03:46 PM | What is it with the men and wanting to know why we go out to bars/clubs? 
No, I wouldn't attend a club where all in attendance/working were WOMEN. If I wanted to do that I could go to a lesbian club. However, I do LOVE MEN and enjoy dancing/looking and talking to them.............Why is this so mind-boggling? | |

Posted: 6/16/2008 12:05:31 PM | Coming from a standpoint where I have promoted, consulted, DJ'd, sound teched and marketed in clubs, I can tell you why it won't fly (or it would have been established already).
This would be a great idea, but most bars/clubs wouldn't survive on discounted drinks and waving cover charges, which are things places do to attract women. Clubs/bars don't attract women for the money, they attract them so that men will come in looking for them and the men spend the money...traditionally that's just the way it is. Unless it's a special event such as a bachelorette or something similar, women just don't throw around money in clubs.
It's the men who frequent clubs that spend the most money. A club without men is a club without profit. And yes, gay clubs where no one's there to see the opposite sex is a much more profitable place to open. Lesbian clubs are not, which is why there are not as many.
Women love DJs/bands, drinks and dance floors, but they are also natural born coupon cutters and won't go if it's too pricy. | |

Posted: 6/16/2008 12:19:32 PM | Great idea mmalueg!
You can sign me up for a ticket or two when your new club opens. My friends and I would consider that a dream spot to go and dance, visit with each other and have a few drinks. Not to mention - listen to good dance music!
AND NO LARRY THE LOUNGE LIZARD TO BOTHER US - WOO HOO!!! | |

Yes, some women DO like to go out just to cut loose and be with their friends, dance and have a good time at a club/bar. It doesn't mean that they are out to pick up men. Nor does it mean that we _don't_ want them around while out having a good time. Just not be bothered by the "creepy men", which a lot of times cannot be avoided 100% of the time. You just have to take the good with the bad there.
Edit:
I'm with *DJChickie*........... MANY "moons" ago I was a bartender in a very large dance club, then manager at a young age......it was the same then as it is now. Basically people haven't changed a whole lot in the last 25 years on the clubbing scene. | |

Posted: 6/16/2008 12:23:36 PM | Isn't this a lesbian club.
Honestly and I realize this option isn't available in EVERY part of the country.
But Gay clubs are the best places for women to go who just want to hang out with the girls and dance. And the music generally ROCKS !!! | |

Posted: 6/16/2008 12:26:39 PM | Wouldn't work for me. While live music, drinks, and dancin with the girls is fun...there is always the off chance that the creep that is bothering you won't be there but prince charming will be.
Besides, I haven't quite gotten to the point where I want to SLOW dance with my girlfriends...I mean...who would lead? | |

Posted: 6/16/2008 12:28:15 PM | Nah. Then we couldn't people watch and make fun of the guys who are hitting on anything that moves.
While some might not go to be hit on or pick up men, we do like to watch it play out and enjoy being around men. | |

I'll tell you why - because when it's salsa dancing the DANCE is the main focus, not the people doing it (tho some are really good at it and fun to watch). In a club the men could care less about dancing, they just ask you because they're trying to get to know you, not dance, which is why they keep coming back after the song is over and trying to talk to you while dancing.
I'd dance with a man I would never date in a salsa club, because I like to salsa, period - and if he's good at it it makes the dance MUCH smoother. Also, chances are once the song ends, so does the exchange. In a club a dance takes on way more meaning to the men (or so it seems, anyway). | |

Posted: 6/16/2008 1:34:04 PM | I am not into the slow dancing with my friends either, nor are they with me. We usually just like to get up and dance to the fast music. Slow dancing songs are for visiting with each other and sipping our drinks.
I am not into slow dancing with guys I don't know either. Slow dancing is for someone you care about. I used to love slow dancing with my husband, not just because that was the only dance he knew, but caring about each other made the slow dancing more fun. Anyway, just my opinion for myself. | |

Posted: 6/16/2008 1:46:39 PM | When I want to decrease my chances of being approached by men, I go dance at a gay club. I have nothing any of those men want. They have great bodies, are fun to dance with and have zero interest in doing anything but enjoying a dance with me.
An all girl club would be fun initially, but would eventually become a bit too catty for me. Some women have a sense of sisterhood about them, but many are very combative.
I personally like male attention in the form of admiring from afar. I also enjoy looking at the male form in motion (especially if the guy can dance). Hetero clubs are great for watching eye candy, being eye candy, dancing with friends, drinking beverages and letting loose. If you want to avoid men approaching you, you can just go to a gay club (typically). Otherwise, I'm just polite when a man approaches for a dance in a hetero club.
It doesn't mean I don't want men around. They're nice to look at and if the guy is polite, I'm happy to converse with him for a few minutes. I like men in general, so it's always pleasant when you can mingle with them. | |

Posted: 6/16/2008 7:10:18 PM | LOL LOL I like Canadians suggestion; they can go have a pillow fight at their friends house!!! Yes, DEFINITELY the day job is secure! Seriously, I too was involved in karaoke business, was part of my friends band, sang in the band, played a lot of different places, booked groupings, attended dance classes and learned at least 45 to 50 dances, so knew and was introduced to many different people in different clubs/bars in many cities, filled in for the dance instructor several times, knew many bar/club owners. In all the years and times the story was the same: women were there
to pick up men just as the opposite was true.  Very few times did one NOT see
a muscled-up body builder with an ego the size of a house or the business-owner playboy with a lot of dough, pull out some bills and the women NOT come around to
them to give them all the attention they wanted! Kind of like using honey that will draw the flies, so they would use money to draw the....NOT guys....the girls! I have experienced the bar scene to change in one way and that is women WERE approachable up until about 5 years ago; from then until now, (and I do approach in a respectful and quiet manner), so as to NOT invade their air space, the response I receive is they****their head to one side, jerk several inches backwards, and look at me like I was an alien from a far away planet with a deadly communicable disease!!!
And I have on many, many occasions been told by women of all social levels that I am very handsome and very easy on their eyes! So you can't use the excuse that I am ugly!
Therefore, GO FIGURE!!! | |

No, that is exactly why most women are fooling only themselves when they say they go to JUST dance or let loose. Go have a pillow fight at a friends house then.
Oh sure Beef man, you just want to see girls prance around in their underlovlies having a pillow fight!  | |

Posted: 6/16/2008 9:50:58 PM | i dont know about you, but i call that a gay club.
and yes, they are nice places, but not because one is avoiding men, rather a different feel. it's like instead of eating vanilla & chocolate ice cream scoops, u eat them separately | |

Posted: 6/17/2008 7:03:21 AM | I go to a regular club, dance in a corner alone. It's a normal club but a few times women have assumed since I'm not dancing with a guy, I must be gay. Ugh, no thanks. So as long as the women knew we were all straight, I'd go to your club. My daughter once went to the gay club in town and she said it was the best time. The men love to dance and they don't hit on you.
For me the club, dance floor well it's like my gym, I go for a fun work out. Dancing is my passion, and I'll do it at home, dance class and at the club. | |

Posted: 6/17/2008 7:10:07 AM | If I don't want to be bothered by men I don't go out... If I want a girls night I have a girls night!
Girls night = turning down male company politely... if a woman can't do this when she is out with her girls, she is retarded.
Male: Hey wanna dance?
Female: Sorry, not tonight, out with the girls! But thanks! Bye!
Chances are... being out with the girls... means wild fun with boys who you don't intend on taking home! basically!
I've never been to a girls night out at a club where the girl ditches their friends.. but I have been know to swipe a number or two! | |

Gee I don't know about that. I wonder if any girl comes dance clubs just to dance. There are these girl magnets that the girls form a line to dance with . (figuratively speaking). This happens in clubs and at lessons. Either it is the way the guy looks or maybe he is a pro. One of my salsa teachers used to pick up a girl whenever he taught at a certain club we used all go to. | |

Posted: 7/27/2008 4:21:35 PM | Yeah a guy who can really dance, and has the moves and the energy to dance a lot, that's rare. The club I usually go to, there are a couple of men there who just ''have it''. And women do flock to them to dance.
Latino men, if they can dance (met a few who couldn't), they are always fantastic. The only man ever to keep up with me on the dance floor was Latino. | |
