Augusta National Golf Club is a private club. It has 300 members, all of the male persuasion. So that's their dirty little secret. They have to persuade the men to be --- what?---men?

Martha Burk's organization is run by women and has nothing but women on it's steering committee.

You want a club to join??!!! Go start your own!!

To: Fedupwithit
I actually liked your version better. :^ )
To: Orual
As a private club, it has the right to make its own rules. One of the rules states that Augusta National's membership is limited to men.
Excuse me if I remember incorrectly, but is there actually a rule against women as members, or have none been invited to join?

How do you figure? I bastardized one expletive, only to put in another....TGIF!! : )

One of the rules states that Augusta National?s membership is limited to men. BUZZZ Incorrect. The rule is that all new members must be approved by the other members. They simply have never approved a female member. Now they might or might not be giving preference to men when approving member, but it's important to know the difference between behavior and rules. That's one of the reasons Hootie is being such a stickler, technically there's nothing he can do, no rule change is required. It's up to the members... not to mention we have no idea how many, if any, women even apply for membership.

One of the rules states that Augusta Nationals membership is limited to men. This is a LIE! There membership rules do NOT prohibit female members. They just do not have any.
To: Fedupwithit
ROFL. Great Minds think alike. I didn't even see that before my comment.

It's up to the members... not to mention we have no idea how many, if any, women even apply for membership. You do not apply for membership at Augusta. You are asked to join.
To: Orual
Wrong. There is no rule against female members.
To: Tumbleweed_Connection
Yo broads, you want to have your own top of the line golf course? Form your own women's only club, and fund it yourselves.... jeez. Talk about Penis Envy run amok.
To: Tumbleweed_Connection
the Burk woman has fired off letters to six members of the club demanding that they explain how they dare to belong to a men only organization. I wonder if this Burk b/tch ever had to explain how she could dare be a member of a lesbian, socialist, victimologist, womean only organization?

You were listening to "Bill Clinton" on Imus yesterday, weren't you? LOL.
To: Orual
How do you know such a rule exists?
Have you read the rulebook?
To: Phantom Lord
I tried to find Augusta National's rules for membership, but they are private and the membership will not reveal the rules. For all intents and purposes, the rule is: no women members. I have no problem with that, and I don't think they should be bullied by the PC crowd into changing that "rule".
