Violet dear if you read the article again it is about family membership. If one's proclaimed family is of the same sex, just a quick look could conceivably answer the question without the need for a detailed sexual history.

So how does this swanky club determine what sort of sexual practices each potential member likes to engage in? Do they give a little questionaire or something?

First the Catholics, now the Gays????What's next RFTC Members? Will the Club change the "all white" tennis rule to Lavender? How will we know if they are among us? Can we make them use beepers or buzzer when entering the locker rooms? Will the Indigo Girls be played at all Saturday dinners? Will a women's mandatory softball practice breakout during Wednesday night grill outs? The horror...the horror...

@Roosevelt Neighbor: Oh puleeze. Get a sense of humor. I am Irish. It was a reference to real-life signs that existed in a former era. See, there was enough discrimination to go around!

RF is just responding to a changing world where exclusion and hautiness are out and inclusion and acceptance in (think 60's). This would stop the social climbers of OP/RF from telling the world the are members ...

To Roosevelt Neighbor - A little harsh. I thought it was funny.

In response to Carrie On: Yes it is true that the RF Swimming club seems to be very watchful when it comes to the Irish. For me to get in I had to drop the O from my last name. I did hear that the RF Tennis Club is more prone to allowing those with O in their last name to play lawn tennis and bocce ball provided they wear white attire.

Simply Violet's attempt to be funny. As with most topics she weighs in on, her ignorance is once again on display.

Is it true that those of Irish heritage are not welcome at this club? Please give more info as I am newer to the area.

On an unrelated note, was the picture of Abraham Lincoln mopping on the front page taken before or after the Concordia public safety director had his "incident"?

Violet be more specific are you saying they discriminate. If so against who and examples. If your going to throw around accusations please have the facts to back them up.
