Cliques (however you want to spell it). Some women, like me, have no time for cliquiness but unfortunately are hampered by our non male sex.<BR/><BR/>More people should think about why there are no boys in Guides even though girls have infultrated scouts.<BR/><BR/>Men need man space. No females allowed. Vice versa also applies.sweetpeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18000017420380895223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14299289.post-69629166770145730092007-06-24T08:55:00.001+12:452007-06-24T08:55:00.001+12:45This comment has been removed by the author.Oihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17331565846140867460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14299289.post-12580533224275118392007-06-24T08:55:00.000+12:452007-06-24T08:55:00.000+12:45Funnily enough, I belong to a bowling club where t...Funnily enough, I belong to a bowling club where there are both men and women in approximatly equal numbers. Whenever there is trouble, it is the women driving it. Whenever the knives come out and theres character assassination, bitching, arguments - its the women.<BR/>The men dont particularly care, but if they disappear for a time, its because their womenfolk have had a snit with someone.<BR/><BR/>I'm pleased The Handbrake doesnt belong!Oihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17331565846140867460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14299289.post-56938820849636204492007-06-24T07:43:00.000+12:452007-06-24T07:43:00.000+12:45Hell, its a pretty poor effort compared to your wo...Hell, its a pretty poor effort compared to your work!<BR/><BR/>I can work metal ok but wood is another matter!<BR/><BR/>The knife is out there in the garage and probably keeds a good clean-up, but I will take a photo.<BR/><BR/>I'm currently researching knivesa and knife-fighting for the current book I'm working on.Oswald Bastablehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11828229103486326473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14299289.post-4048468855312460482007-06-23T23:39:00.000+12:452007-06-23T23:39:00.000+12:45Oswald,I wanted to thank you for coming to visit m...Oswald,<BR/><BR/>I wanted to thank you for coming to visit my site last week.

Members of clubs such as Working Mens' are private and are quite entitled to associate together without hindrance. <BR/><BR/>The same logic also applies of course, to clubs/pubs/societies who band together for any lawful purpose, including smoking cigars, swimming nude, or forming a hobby group.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14299289.post-5624831171021055932007-06-23T20:12:00.000+12:452007-06-23T20:12:00.000+12:45".."You will get some sticks-in-the-mud who don't ...".."You will get some sticks-in-the-mud who don't want to change," she said."<BR/>Yeah, stick-in-the-muds who think that bloody women ought to be perfectly capable of forming their own clubs, instead of pushing this bullshit agenda.<BR/>Why the hell should these blokes change? Is she suggesting that change is necessarily a "good thing" or that she knows better than they do--being a woman and all?KGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01940428991630766942noreply@blogger.com
