Now that I've approached the lovely age of 26, I've come to realize that the club scene is NO LONGER for me. I'm definately not against those that still choose to patron at these local spots. I'm just saying that for ME, the curtain has closed. I believe that over the years ,I've grown tired of the "approach". The men that have approaced me(and not all, but some)have not been the type that I would want to take home to my parents! I mean,trying to get my attention with the "cat calls" (i.e Redd, Shawty, Lil'Mama, and "PINK" <-- or whatever color I'm wearing at the time) is an immediate turn-off! Grown women should be treated with the upmost respect at ALL times! Keep in mind, I said WOMEN-- I'm not speaking about little girls whose eyes still gleam with they see a set of 24's driving down I-75. Again, I'm not saying all men are like this. I'm just saying that for ME, these are the type of women that men are used to meeting in clubs. The kind that are preoccupied with themselves and their material belongings. When they have no success with me using the same pick-up line that usually gets them to second-base with the next chick, things sometimes tend to get--ugly. And don't get me started on the ones that love to babysit us because they bought us a drink on $2.00 Tuesday! You know the ones, they buy you a drink and then what started off as small talk, then becomes "This nigga is holding me hostage!" Then there are the ones that loooove to sneak, stand, or jump behind us while we're dancing! We want so badly to tell them, "Ugh, um sir, can I do me with just me please!" I do sometimes miss the ever so interesting & entertaining atmosphere of nightclubs, but I think I'll stay away for a while. Maybe venture into a couple of "Grown folks" spots where the men still believe in courting a woman. Men, we love you, adore you, and we DO want you. But please, give a girl her space!
