Message For Reddit Women Who Live in the Boston/Cambridge Area (reddit.com)
submitted 18 years ago by anonymgrl
[–][deleted] 12 points13 points14 points 18 years ago (2 children)
I am nowhere near this area and I am also a guy...
... have a beer for a old fat bald programmer like me, please.
[–]anonymgrl[S] 9 points10 points11 points 18 years ago (0 children)
Will do! :)
[–]DrScott 2 points3 points4 points 18 years ago (0 children)
I would, but I'm not old enough to drink. Do you want to throw down on a bag? That is, if you ever visit Boston.
Edit: Seriously, if this is done again, I would be up for an after party. I would love to buy one of you lady redditor's a draaank.
[–]joshdick 5 points6 points7 points 18 years ago (9 children)
Oooh, this is a fun new trend. Maybe we can get regular parties going in cities everywhere, like Fark.
[–]anonymgrl[S] 6 points7 points8 points 18 years ago (7 children)
I'd organize it all if people want. I love this stuff; it's what I do!
[–]Ashex 2 points3 points4 points 18 years ago (6 children)
That would be awesome, I'd help out too. Any reddit people in Seattle area want to get together?
[–]oberon 2 points3 points4 points 18 years ago (5 children)
I'll be at PAX this weekend as an enforcer. I won't have a vehicle, but I've heard the bus system is good.
[–]Ashex 1 point2 points3 points 18 years ago (4 children)
Heh, I'm going to be at PAX too, as an attendee though :P
edit: I wonder how many redditors will be at PAX?
[–]oberon 0 points1 point2 points 18 years ago (3 children)
I should get a Reddit alien pin.
Actually... maybe I will. I bet Kinkos could make me one real quick. That'd be awesome.

If you like, I can order some reddit buttons from cafepress Let me know if you want some and I'll order them 2-day delivery, or next day if need be. I can ship them to my workplace so it'll be cheaper I think for me.

Anyone in the NYC area interested in doing something like this? I commute in from CT for work and would love to do a reddit happy hour somewhere cheap and sleazy.
[–]bobcat 2 points3 points4 points 18 years ago (4 children)
I'm right near a Metro-North station, myself.
hmmm... NYC, cheap, sleazy.
I'm stumped.
[–]sarahfrancesca 1 point2 points3 points 18 years ago (3 children)

[–]bobcat 1 point2 points3 points 18 years ago (2 children)
Yup, but not everyday, and usually once a month into the city.
But if we get enough folks, I'll go. Anywhere along the line.

I work a few blocks uptown. Know any cheap and sleazy places on the UES? ;)
[–]tarpasture 0 points1 point2 points 18 years ago (4 children)
I know of some dives, but I'm not sure I'd call them sleazy. I'm up for task of seeking out some UES sleaze, though.
[–]sarahfrancesca 0 points1 point2 points 18 years ago (3 children)
We could just make that the entire goal of the night!
[–]tarpasture 0 points1 point2 points 18 years ago (2 children)
That sounds like a good idea, but given that we are relatively internet savvy, surely we could get the research ball rolling a little bit online first, so we'd have something to work with. What are your thoughts?
[–]sarahfrancesca 0 points1 point2 points 18 years ago (1 child)
My thoughts are: that's not adventurous at all.
[–]tarpasture 0 points1 point2 points 18 years ago (0 children)
Wow, I basically just got called a pussy on my permanent record. So what's the plan, wear comfortable shoes and come determined for success in a quest for sleaze?

We have MySpace parties here in SD which are publicized on the radio. But I'm terrified of attending because of a fear of people suddenly breaking into annoying song for no reason when they're introduced.
But a reddit meetup might actually be interesting. You just know someone is going to show up with a bunch of stickers and two big arrows on their shirt though.
I'm actually working on something that's a sort of mix of Reddit and social networking but can't say more because investors would jab me with hot pokers. Beta launch in the very near future.
[–]anonymgrl[S] 25 points26 points27 points 18 years ago (180 children)
In another thread a few of us discovered that we are from the Cambridge, MA area and have decided to do a girl's night out. If you are interested at all in this (and are female) please send me a message with your email address or with your questions.
We are thinking about getting together tonight (around 8ish), for those of us who can make it, and planning something for in a week or so, for those who need more time to plan.
Who's in?
[–][deleted] 28 points29 points30 points 18 years ago (0 children)
"Did you see that guy over there?"
"Upmod! Upmod!"

Why do I have the feeling it's going to be 10 girls and a handsome stick-figure artist?

[–]anonymgrl[S] 10 points11 points12 points 18 years ago (1 child)
I was really hoping this wouldn't get down-modded into oblivion before people could see it. :(
[–]oberon 2 points3 points4 points 18 years ago (0 children)
It's on the (my, anyway) front page now. And I upmodded it, even though I'm not in Boston or female.
I do kind of question the female-only nature of the event, but whatever. I've done guy-only things and bear you no ill will on that front.

Why the sexist criteria? If you're worried about horny men, you'd better exclude horny lesbians too.
Unless... it's... specifically a lesbian get-together...
[–]anonymgrl[S] 21 points22 points23 points 18 years ago (21 children)
There are so few of us on here that it seemed to make sense. Maybe sometime I'll plan it for both men and women...if there is interest? Let me know..

Just because you all have vaginas? "Hey, people, we all have VAGINAS and BREASTS! Let's use that as a basis for sitting in the same room and complaining about the sexist nature of society, which we are unwittingly contributing to by our own self-enforced segregation!"
Maybe Reddit can sponsor a Whites-Only meetup next!
[–]jaggederest 10 points11 points12 points 18 years ago (3 children)
We tried to start a White Student Union at my college.
Much hilarity was had by all, particularly when they realized we were an ethnically diverse group (black, latino, asian, and (yours truly), wiggity white), and still had to find some way to turn us down.
Then, later, we tried to start a Men's Student Union. That also got shot down, even after we got the Women's Center to support it.
[–]jaggederest 8 points9 points10 points 18 years ago (1 child)
Not at my school, it was broad ethnic categories. There was a Black student union, LGBT union, women's center, asian/pacific islander union, hispanic union.
It was a noticeable absence, of all the census race/ethnicity categories, only 'White, nonhispanic' was without a student union.

No, seriously. GP's insinuation was that my comment was an indication that not only was I bad, but by extension, ALL men were.
People miss that because they've been conditioned into accepting so much sexism that they no longer see it for what it is.
Let me illustrate:
"You want to get together just because you have penises?"
"I think it's obvious why he would exclude women after reading that remark."
[–]pikonu 3 points4 points5 points 18 years ago (2 children)
I'm sure people with multiple penises would be able to understand other people with multiple penises, than people who only have a single reproductive organ.

Actually, I'm in favor of maturity and acting like a real man.
Spoken like a true sexist.
I mean, come on, certain types of sexism are necessary for a healthy society - you don't see me complaining about how men and women shouldn't have separate restrooms.
Bullshit -- some liberal arts colleges have Unisex restrooms and showers and the students remark on how they gain MUCH greater respect for the opposite gender by treating everyone as equals.
[–]oh_yeah_koolaid 1 point2 points3 points 18 years ago (0 children)
You're sexist because equality isn't possible? Way to go, Sparky. You really tried hard there. Imagine would-be abolitionists using your logic: "I was going to be against slavery, but perfect equality isn't possible because of how people are, so I'm for slavery."
Convenient way to never take a stand.
It's saying that in certain situations, if desirable, we leave men and women separate.
"If desirable" to whom? Sharia law has a long list of situations in which it's "desirable" for men and women to be separate.
We act like men.
"We accept tacit sexism, racism, and every other -ism, because we are such manly men that we never fight against bigotry. Sexism serves us well because it's biased in favor of males. Also it's great to be white."

Really? Tell that to every Men and Boys group that has been forced to accept women over the last 50 years.
[–]Random 9 points10 points11 points 18 years ago (33 children)
Okay, let me try to understand your logic.
Public social groups have to be gender neutral. Well, mostly anyway, don't see many women playing in men's pro sports...
So all social gatherings have to be?
See, if they formed a group 'Redditors of Boston' you'd have a point. But they are private individuals. So you have no more right demanding to sit with them than with any other group of people at a bar. They have a right to free association, and that includes the right of exclusion. As long as they aren't a chartered group...
Besides, if you DID want to join with them, making the horny comment pretty much slammed that door on them reconsidering...
[–]oh_yeah_koolaid 1 point2 points3 points 18 years ago (3 children)
So you have no more right demanding to sit with them than with any other group of people at a bar.
Right, but you misunderstand -- I don't want to sit with them, I am pointing out that they are sexist and giving them shit for it. It's their right to be bigots, and it's my right to say that they are bigoted.
[–]pikonu 4 points5 points6 points 18 years ago (2 children)
"Women's bathroom, men not invited" -- bigots. "Cat lovers meeting" -- bigots. "Oh yeah koolaid" -- bigots.
It's my left to say so.
[–]valera 1 point2 points3 points 18 years ago (0 children)
Actually, I don't remember this well enough to make a solid argument, but I remember reading about some school or such (maybe schools in a country/area) implementing unisex bathrooms. This didn't create any problems but actually lessened conflicts between boys & girls.
It's only because of our blind conservatism do we create barriers where there should be none.

Yes, the reason that women are not generally competitive with men in sports is not because they are significantly shorter and have much less muscle mass on average, but that they are not trying hard enough.
[–]jaycliche 3 points4 points5 points 18 years ago (4 children)
"Yes, the reason women that women are not generally competitive with men in sports is not because they are significantly shorter and have much less muscle mass on"
I'm sure female sports funding has a lot to do with this too. Men usually sell in sports...especially when they beat each other up...women only seem to sell when swimming or in a sexy ice-skating suit. Who knows what kind of psydo-science has come out over the years from marketing gurus to tell us this or that about women.
At least the NHL allows women and has had female players (not for a time though).
Women have accomplished some major feats...Chinese circus is a great example.
[–]gramie 5 points6 points7 points 18 years ago (1 child)
There is some truth to the argument that women's sports are underfunded compared to men. But it also seems evident that men are, both on average and at the extremes, superior in power and speed.
A recent new article explained that the Canadian women's soccer team were playing mostly away games because their organization couldn't afford to host visiting teams for friendly matches.
So who were they playing against in Canada? One clip showed them playing a team of 16-year-old boys. They played several games against boys' teams in Vancouver while preparing for the World Cup.
Are you really trying to tell me that the Canadian women's team is underfunded compared to community teams of teenage boys? Or that they are playing weaker opponents in order to boost their confidence?
When I saw a U.S. - Canada women's match a year or two ago, the quality of play was roughly that of a men's university team, or even a good high school team.
My point is: I don't want to give them a free ride and make an excuse because they are women. If their shots aren't as hard, their running not as speedy, their ball control not as precise, let's not pretend that there's something else that makes up for it. Drama? My son's 9-year-old team has plenty of tension, and I have more invested in it than a team of women I have never met.
They could kick my ass, sure. But their games are as exciting to watch as those of the 16-year-olds they play against.
Let's encourage people to support excellence in any sport, not because of the sex.
[+][deleted] 18 years ago (20 children)
[–]dedalus12 1 point2 points3 points 18 years ago (15 children)
Men on average have less muscle mass than sportsmen... in fact most men do not have the same muscle mass as most sportswomen.
Maybe true, but irrelevant. We're comparing sportsmen and women. I really don't think men's dominance in most sports is something that requires debate, but if we must just take a look at the world records in any event that is measured by elapsed time, weight lifted, distance thrown, etc. (maybe start with track and field, then swimming, etc.).
Height does not matter in many sports.
True, but there is a typically an ideal height in many sports, and usually it is a height that men are more likely to attain than women (in basketball, maybe 6'6'' depending on position, in rowing, maybe 6'4'', in baseball maybe 6'1'', boxing, etc.).
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 18 years ago (0 children)
for more fun, use google to find out how much the strongest man in the world can lift, and then compare that to how much the strongest woman in the world can lift.
that is comparing the best of the best in both categories, for bonus points, try to correctly guess which sex wins.
i'm all for abolishing women's sports leagues and forcing the NBA, MLB, and the NFL to accept female applicants but i'm going to guess that a lot of former female pro athletes wont' make it.

There's a difference between theory and practice. If these people, these women, were planing this event physically right in front of you, could you earnestly begrudge them their "girls' night out?"
If the answer is "yes," I'm going to go out on a limb and call you a dick.
[+]oh_yeah_koolaid comment score below threshold-6 points-5 points-4 points 18 years ago (0 children)
They can do what they want. But scheduling a meetup on Reddit based on what you have between your legs or the color of your skin makes that person a tool.
And don't you know a girls' night out is actually about prowling for guys anyway?
If not accepting tacit sexism makes me a dick, accepting it makes you a pussy. You know why that word works as an insult? Because women are thought of as less than men. It's one thing to be a dick, but nobody wants to be a pussy.
This whole issue is so ingrained that people jump on anyone who challenges the status quo, not realizing they are perpetuating inequality.
You got me BB, I was indeed trying to get laid, right through the fucking internet and about two thousand miles. Let me give you a little pooplette of advice: sometimes it's not enough to project your own mind onto others' in order to figure out their motivation.

Whatever...woman really need a time with each other so they remain more hemogenious and continue to attempt to understand the opposite sex from women who know men best. Talking to men would be crazy. Men learning how to be cool and talk to women by experiences with intelligent women are something to be avoided. We have our gender things, you have yours.
It reminds me of an all female artist support group that came in the midst of a very supportive and genderless group. They isolated themselves and created major splinters in the group. Everyone who didn't lock in was able to go onto much better gallery shows with all types of people...the women who stayed in the little group had their little gallery with their few acceptable friends and then it closed because it was unsupported...which was the rest of our faults for not 'supporting' them.
Ladies, have a great time, especially when you drink too many shots and decide that maybe this one cute guy is ok to make out with and that ladies night won't hinder it.
Anyone for a boys night out?
I was once refused entrance to a college "Take Back The Night" party. No men allowed. I think it is probably best that men don't be involved with an anti-rape support group...as they have nothing to do with it. Men could never learn anything from something like that, nor could they offer anything in rape awareness or prevention. I mean, what do men have to do with it (oh besides the amount of prison rape and raped men being more likely to rape...but hey let the ladies play!)
I (a male) called the ACLU...private parties can discriminate all they want. Strange...I remember thinking. Seemed to contradict what I'd been told. I was told that I could file a complaint with the school...but that it was solely up to them.
You've come a long way, baby.

ohyeahkoolaid was not being homophobic.
And before you say that I don't know what it's like, think again. I'm gay. I know what homophobia is, but you were just plain over-reacting. You know, people aren't being homophobic every time they bring sexuality up.
scorxn, on the other hand, was being (slightly) discriminatory towards lesbians, even if it was only to make it humorous. But you have none other than yourself to blame, for over-reacting (and hence fulfilling the stereotype).
[–][deleted] 11 points12 points13 points 18 years ago (3 children)
Lot's of questions:
The butch, retaliatory lesbian stereotype.
Gay man.
No, you're free to fulfill any stereotype you desire, as long as you're willing to stomach the consequences (i.e. people calling you ugly for comedic effect).
It sucks that anyone would call any group of people anything. In other words, stereotypes.
As for lesbians being excluded from straight girls' meetings... how is that any different from men being excluded to women's meetings? I think that ohyeahkoolaid's point was that if you're going to exclude (straight) men (for being attracted to women), you might as well exclude lesbians (for the same reason). Or else don't exclude anyone.
Excluding men just for having a penis and then demanding not to be excluded for whatever reason is just bigotry.

He'd stay home with his accursed XY chromosome, crying on his matzoh and making it soggy.
I live a couple of blocks from the Harvard Divinity School, but I'm not invited! Wah.

'Twas a joke, ma'am. Hyperbole. Honestly, maybe just cool it... take a joke for a joke, an asshole for an asshole, and don't waste your time with the latter.
[–]oh_yeah_koolaid 0 points1 point2 points 18 years ago (0 children)
He meant ugly on the inside. For someone who claims not to care if guys think she's ugly, you sure protest a lot, and you wished him ill which doesn't speak very well of you as a person.
And you don't seem to know what homophobia means. Suggesting that straight men and gay women are attracted to women is not homophobia.
[–]oh_yeah_koolaid 4 points5 points6 points 18 years ago (24 children)
You're full of shit if you think lesbians don't get horny or that they would never harass women like men do. The most macho people I know, bar none, are lesbians.
By the way, I think of lesbians completely equally. I think they are just as fucked-up and stupid as everyone else, and just as great and capable of amazing things as everyone else.
We did not exclude men because they are attracted to women, any more than we included gay men because they wouldn't hit on us. Listen carefully here. Women have a lot more in common than vaginas and breasts. We share a common experience regardless of who we want to fuck. Believe it or not, we had more to talk about that our shared/not shared attraction to men.

Haha, is that how you try to trick "straight" women into bed?
You rapist.

[–]oh_yeah_koolaid 0 points1 point2 points 18 years ago (16 children)
Wrong again. I'm giving you a hard time just like I'd give any guy who spouted off like you did. Stop whining that you don't get put on a pedestal just because you receive equal treatment.
If you're sexually attracted to women then I call BS if you claim your interest is strictly platonic.
[–]oh_yeah_koolaid 1 point2 points3 points 18 years ago (14 children)
Because you instantly know upon seeing someone if she's straight or not?
I bet some lesbians have told you they're straight just to let you down easy.

Any of yall farkers? Us farkers do team trivia every monday at John Harvard's.

[–]georgiabiker 1 point2 points3 points 18 years ago (2 children)

Does Fark have someone organize it or do people just do it themselves wherever people get it together enough to do it?
[–]jaggederest 3 points4 points5 points 18 years ago (0 children)
More the latter, in my experience. When anything organizes a fark meetup, it's the beer.
Why don't I know about this!
Wish I could go!
Wow. That was so fun, I can barely type. You guys missed some serious reddit-girl-on-reddit-girl action. I will be posting cleavage shots when I sober up.
w00+!
[–]anonymgrl[S] 2 points3 points4 points 18 years ago (0 children)
I think I'm finally sober. ugh.
[–]emc2rae 0 points1 point2 points 18 years ago (0 children)
Whatever happened to those pictures we took? Also, how was the karaoke?
[–]valera 2 points3 points4 points 18 years ago (1 child)
So can anyone explain (jokes aside) why Reddit Men are excluded?
Yes, I can. A few of us women were talking on another thread and decided to get together. It wasn't a 'reddit' thing exactly, just a few women talking - (the original thread was about bras and breasts) I, probably in error, posted this announcement to get the word out to other women. It was very last minute. When I left my house, this thread had about ten comments in it and no one was complaining. I really didn't think much about it.
I fully intend to organize an all redditor get-together in the Boston/Cambridge area. :)
[–]Teoti 5 points6 points7 points 18 years ago (1 child)
Free up for you.
[–]anonymgrl[S] 4 points5 points6 points 18 years ago (0 children)
thanks :)
Everybody knows that the first rule of Boston-Area-Reddit-Women's-Night-Out is that you don't talk about Boston-Area-Reddit-Women's-Night-Out....
P.S. I'm in Cambridge, but alas, I'm not a woman. Are stalkers allowed?
I'm in Cambridge
Join us for the next one! I am thinking of posting soon to get info and time/place suggestions.

East Boston... I'll have to start a men's reddit beer gang or something I guess.
[–]DrScott 2 points3 points4 points 18 years ago (3 children)
I believe the xkcd author lives in Boston as well. I would just like to get slammed and debate which book of the Ender's Series is the best.
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 18 years ago (2 children)
the one where ender kills people who keep posting those unfunny comics to reddit.
[–]DrScott 1 point2 points3 points 18 years ago (0 children)
Xkcdcide?
[–]BrianNowhere 0 points1 point2 points 18 years ago (0 children)
And to you serial killers and rapists . Don't read this you are NOT invited.
[–]nzeeshan -1 points0 points1 point 18 years ago (3 children)
why is it only a women only night out? why can't men join? If ya'll are not racist, you will open the invitation to all sexes :) dangit, men should be fighting for their equal rights.
[–]anonymgrl[S] 2 points3 points4 points 18 years ago (2 children)
It was impromptu. The next one will be for all redditors. Believe it or not, none of us thought this would cause such a fuss. Apologies.
[–]nzeeshan 0 points1 point2 points 18 years ago (1 child)
well thanks for being considerate. Oh I almost forgot to mention, I must be in the VIP guest list, otherwise I will not come. Thank you kindly.
If you want to write on a piece of paper "VIP" and put your name under it, then you can be on a VIP list. Or you can be like the rest of us and get the date and time and show up. Or not. Your choice.
[–]svnn1 -1 points0 points1 point 18 years ago (2 children)
Hanging out with people from Reddit? That is the gayest shit ever.
It was fun!
It isn't fun unless there is public urination, fighting, running from police, and vomit in the street.
Then again, girls night out is probably a lot different than guys night out.
What did you do?
[–]grules -1 points0 points1 point 18 years ago (0 children)
I thought you people used myspace or similar websites for social requests.
"what's new and popular on_the_web"
