Hmm I have an hour to kill before meeting Benny. I mean eating lunch then meeting Benny. Anyway I miss GP lessons. No more interactive talktimes with Grace. Grace Lee. Mrs Grace Lee.

Hmmm I was thinking about a topic that was highlighted in the Straits Times a while back. I suppose you guys know about Ladies' Night in clubs. Every Wednesday, women get free admission to clubs while the men have to pay. Yet, many women are complaining that the bouncers are rejecting them free entry for various reasons, most of them centering about their appaling appearance. Hmm then yeah as usual being the whiny shitheads they start whining to the Straits Times forum about how females are badly treated. In my opinion I believe that they might have a case. Wow.

First and foremost, we have to examine the rationale for Ladies' Night. Well the free admission part is to draw chicks into clubs. So well naturally once the prey is inside the wolves (coloured ones) will follow. And that means more revenue for the clubs. Going by economic terms, it would seem only natural to deny entry to women whom the bouncers deem unattractive and hence unable to provide enough allure to draw in the hunting crowd. If that is the case, the club would actually be making a loss by letting them in for free. So from this standpoint, the clubs would be protecting their own self-interests.

Yet, from another point of view, the women have a right to complain. Unless the club specifically says 'Ladies' Night - free entry for those below 30; entry subjected to bouncers', women of all ages and appearances should be allowed in. Refusal to do so would be a clear insult to their status as females. Of course, if clubs do post such damning signs outside their um clubs, then there would understandably be more outrage among individuals who do not fit into their category yet feel that their right to enter should not be denied. But then again that's their damn opinion and they can't argue against black and white.

Shucks ok screw the above topic it's getting seriously boring. I think my brain is degenerating bit by bit. The neurons are slowly dying one by one and I'm in no condition to be my usual witty and humourous self.

Tata.
