Most "Grill Rooms" are restricted to women for at least part of the day. I don't really understand why women would want to seek entrance to a dark room where a bunch of drunk, grumpy old curmudgeons are cussing about politics, local sports while playing cards.

But you just did! And then you tried to rationalize it by googling some article about women getting together in a women-friendly space, as if that's in any way equal to the years and years of racist, sexist, exclusionary discrimination as practiced by the Pendennis Club in Louisville. Between this and "I know about Metromix -- I'm in it every month," HotBytes is reaching new highs in obliviousness! A+! Good job!
