Thread Name: best thing seen at a folk club
Subject: RE: best thing seen at a folk club
Countess Richard......in the 60's when I was but a young lad, I saw a beautiful woman in a Folk Club...a stunning woman who was with her boyfriend...I was captivated by her beauty as were 99.9% of the other guys in the club.....it was allowed then and I believe it still is.
I lightheartedly made a comment about it at the beginning of this thread and you seem to have made a crusade of what is right and what is wrong with regards you what you believe are sexist attitudes.
I will be 60 next year and still find young women beautiful...and I am not just some pervert or dirty old man or indeed sexist.
I had a look at your photo by the way....I think you are very attractive but am I insulting you by telling you this?????
Please lighten up...life is too short!!!

Sorry I don't know how to put that into a quote on here!
Anyway, VERY WELL SAID!
I was in many a folk club watching the Watersons in the 60's, in mini skirts or "hot pants", hair that I can still sit on, flowing down my back. Of course the guys looked, and paid compliments, and I loved it! Fabulous times, Fabulous memories.I am 60 now too, but I'm not such a prune.
