Fixing the World One Idea at a Time

Went out with a friend last night, it was the first time in a long time that I can remember going out to bars and not having even one drink. We hit up the Sunset area and had a surprising amount of fun. I'm still a little surprised. For the first time since I moved here, I actually want to go back to Sunset, although next time I'd like to drink.

Anyway, it's towards the end of the night, we're at the last bar we went to and we're looking around, checking out the girls and discussing how there's always too many couples at bars, this was when I had a revolutionary thought.

We need to have segregation in our nightlife / bar scene. As a guy who's single more than taken, nothing frustrates me more than being at a bar, seeing a really hot girl then seeing her boyfriend right behind her. It really fucks up the whole process and needs to change.

Bars need begin taking sides and establishing themselves as couples only or singles only. No exceptions. If you think this would be bad for business then you are seriously mistaken. What single person wouldn't want to go to a bar if they knew, for sure, going in that everyone there was also gonna be single? The only potential issue I can see is too much sausage aka cock and not enough estrogen.

The sausage fest issue is the biggest reason as to why this has to be a blanket law. If it were only to be established at one or two places then those places would be swarming with horny, creepy dudes which, is pretty much how most bars are now anyway.

On the flip side, there would also be couples only bars. I know when I'm in a relationship I still like to take my lady out for drinks from time to time and should be able to, but without putting my lady out there as a tease to all the single guys in the bar. This goes along the lines of maxim that I've valued for awhile: don't do something that bothers you when you see other people doing it. Well, every time I take my girl (when I have one) out to a bar I'm violating that maxim.

In the end it's all about making people feel comfortable. With singles / couples bar segregation everyone wins. People who are in relationships can go out and have a good time without fear of being bothered by drunk and horny people while single people can go out without having to deal with seeing all these attractive people they'd like to meet who are already taken.

I guess that's about it for now. This weekend was nice, really chill, fairly productive. I'm still pleased with myself in that I didn't have any drinks. I honestly didn't think I'd make it. Counting the days 'til the East Coast.
