Well atleast you do give reasons.

You said, "Would you give anyone's behind if it involved yourself or your sister, mother, daughter?"

It depends what you mean by involvement. If they are just taking part in the Teej, I would still give a rat's behind since they themselves also would want out of this politics bs. If they were themselves involved in the political tug-of-war, I would come protect them BUT I wouldn't term it as a MEN vs Women showdown. Let me ask you this, would your dad or your brother had read the above post, would he give anyone's behind? lol.

I can see how, if what you are saying is the truth, they are playing politics behind all this; this is very typical of every other organizations around. They probably have 55 different registered organizations in NY and almost all to boost the social ego of the founder.

What I see is some guy (head of the aforementioned Lions Club) trying to "claim" this event under his wings. That's pure politics NOT Male chauvenism or female dominance. I bet if it was a guy instead of you, he would've done the same thing. So don't make it look like MAN vs Woman, is all I am saying.

Rest you understand.
