Meme becomes policy:

quote:

A new bar has opened in the UK with strict rules forbidding men from approaching women.

Dear Sailor, which is described as ‘a beautiful cocktail bar inspired by the speakeasies and jazz bars of 1930s Tokyo, opened up last weekend in Spinningfields, Manchester.

However according to Manchester Evening News the venue appears to come with some strict rules for customers to abide.

These include 'no name-dropping' and an edict that 'gentlemen will not introduce themselves to ladies.'

If a man dares to break the rule, the bar has advised women to simply ‘lift your chin slightly and ignore him’.

However women are free to introduce themselves to men or they can simply ask the bartender to make the introduction.



So, basically a physical Bumble with drinks.

Manchester bar's quirky rules

You can't buy beer in this state past two

It’s like taking a male lion out of the wild and putting him in a cage then spoon feeding him spam. We like a good hunt. Why go to the watering hole if you can’t go on the prowl?!

If you read the full description of the bar it is likely to do really well for at least a short time based on the mystery and curated guest list alone. Manchester is the kind of city where an underground bar like this could get a serious cult following.

The "rules" BTW according to the owner are a bit tongue in cheek. The publicity is fairly good considering tOT is discussing a bar opening in central England.

I kind of like it. Just go hang out and drink, and the women come to you. You may have to dismiss a few fatties, but sounds fun.

I'd go. Let the women buy their own damn drinks.

Y'all are acting like this is some odd set up. It's actually an old custom in England in more higher end society wherein it is considered gauche to hit on a woman you don't know without a formal introduction.....Victorian "rules".

It will likely attract more women and therefore more men.

I always thought women wait for the man to approach them?
