That would be like me going into one of your cozy pubs and kicking the old timers dog that's warming itself by the fire!!! Just asking for a fight. If his wife was part of the protest, I hope he enjoys sleeping on the couch!!!:biglaugh:

Hi, guys

That happened about an hour from here. What a circus. The weirdos came out of the woodwork, from what I'm told.

Wonder how many men are in that Burke witch's organization.

Bare foot, pregnant, and in the kitchen. :eek:

You know there is a good reason why I went anonymous. :vfunny:

I suppose that was about Hootie and Augusta National? What a joke! Private clubs should be able to admit, or not admit, anyone they da*m well choose. Period. Those women need a butt kickin'. It ain't discrimination against women, either. I'd wanna kick the butt of a boy who wanted to enter the Girl Scouts, or a man who wanted to enter the girl's tavern softball league in the same way. It just shows that some people just can't wait for something to bitch and complain about -- it must be what makes life worth living for them or something. JMO.:mad:

Yeah, Mike, I agree completely.

The result will be that Augusta National WILL NOT even consider, under any circumstances, admitting any female as a member, just to keep from giving the impression they gave in. Maybe 10 years from now, they might.

So, Burke trades what she says she wants for a few minutes of fame, and loses respect at the same time. What a joke she is.

What's up with people wanting to socialize or do business with other people who obviously don't want to socialize or do business with them? Do they think that admission to the clubs is going to be the "magic cure"??? How bizarre.

Any private organization, club, whatever, should be able to include or exclude whomever they want, on any basis they want. That's the whole deal about being private. If they aren't taking money from the government, then they should not be subject to government imposed discrimination laws.

Next there'll be men demanding to join my bunko club or attend the Girls' Lunch on Tuesdays. :) Ain't happenin' dudes. Get over it.

I have a suggestion for these clubs that find themselves faced with lawsuits that force them to accept people they don't want: establish a condition that only the selected group can accomplish. For the males-only golf course, make a condition of membership be the ability to instinctively protect the groin when a ball is tossed at them; ability to speak at a decible range unachievable by the typical female; and testosterone levels at a certain percentage without chemical assistance. These are easily measured unlike the snoring, scratching, balding, and fascination with menage a trois criteria that could also be used....

I'm with you Craig, the more they are the pushed the more they will hold out, good for them. Maybe some people want to be part of a group that doesn't want them.

Although politically incorrect, these are my feelings:

Men have some men groups and should be able to attend alone.
Women have women groups and should be able to attend alone.
Men have golf clubs, Women have golf clubs.

What men want to join a ladies club?????
What women want to join a mens club?????

Although if I was allowed to use the ladies shower!!!!!!(sorry, I digress)

All I can ask is what is the big problem? Women are the most beautiful creatures on this God's Earth and deserve our respect, love, support, and undying love, just leave the golf courses alone:lick:

Fill me in, why don't you?

I hadn't realized this was a topical pic. What happened? Who is Burke?

Not exactly against men in general, in this case one particular man, but shows where some place their trust. What power!;) :smokin:

I think this filthy disgusting photo should be removed from this site along with he who posted the foul abomination.

Incidentally energy, before they chuck you out - along with yer pal Nosno - how do you think they got hold of that pic of me first girlfriend. I thought I'd burned all the copies when I married her sister!

Tom,

After the broohaa in the Poster of the Year thread, I'm sure that any photos that cause discomfort will be purged. I asked for advice from a Moderator before I posted mine, but never received an answer. After Nosmo posted the pic of her and the girlfriends at the beach, I thought I was safe. If you insist, I'll delete it. Please advise before I get kicked out. :bonk:

I don't think this is too racy for the forum. (It ain't me - or anyone else) Just an art project gone bad.

Aack - attachment didn't take - I'll try again.

Laura,

Cute one of plants gone bad. I have a few horticultural delights that are funny. But, with the Moral Crusaders on the prowl, I'll wait and see. One thing that seems to be forgotten is that Marc is around enough to put his foot down if there are offensive posts. I know because, sometimes, I see him on line on line on the weekends, or sometimes late night, when I check in once in awhile. :vfunny: He has seen the posts. They have passed inspection. Not saying that he applauds them. Just realizes it isn't worth his time to respond to grownups that meant no harm. I know for a fact that he would have no hesitation about letting us know about offensive material and I trust his judgement. Others? Well, too bad! ;) :smokin:

Would the proportions be a little out?

I only ask because a feller, despite the rumours flying around these parts, doesn't often get a chance to, like, benchmark.

I mean, mine is a lot smaller. On the other hand, I guess not many fellers wear floppy bow ties any more, so it may be hard for you to comment?

The rest looks fine. Shillelaghs (as we call 'em) come in all sizes.

Tee hee hee -I don't know nothin' about proportions - maybe that's why clowns are wearing big shoes!!!!!

Did I just post that? :ko: :rolleyes:

I think many females "fight" for the right to join male clubs just for the hell of it. I can't remember ever seing or reading about males "fighting" to join a female club.
As the five foot tall doctor said to the large woman before giving an injection, "You'll hardly feel a thing, it's only a tiny prick".

If the Augusta were an organization critical to being successful in business in the area, sure - bust heads and file lawsuits until they let women in.

But a purely social place like a golf course when there are other golf courses around. Not worth the headache, but I suppose for some people it is just a way to get on TV.

Last thing I want is for some of the guys to start joining my gals' night out. Sorry, guys, but its a "no testerone" zone. :tg:

I think there is still some truth to the old "Watch what you ask for, it might come true" addage...:notme:

My feelings: As long as an organization is not vitally important for business success, they can discriminate all they want against whomever they want. If it is vitally important for business success, they have a legitimate legal problem. Key point - make sure your social club or golf club is not the only venue locally for business success.

Personally I would not be happy in a club where I had to force my in over member's wishes. And keep those male critters out of the Ann Arbor Women's Club, thank you very much. :)

Do any of those women who are protesting actually golf?
