More skirts please!!!
I'm sitting in a quiet corner of Galleries North watching the human traffic flow in and out of the lounge as I write this.
15 minutes ago, while sitting here reflecting upon mankind, I noticed that a larger than normal chunk of the traffic flowing through the lounge is male. Every now and again something which resembles a female goes past but it ain't much. This got me started in my count:
Over 10minutes:
82 males
3 females + 1 really questionable female!
and 4 children.
We need more skirts in the lounge because this is just depressing.

Hi,
Why do not go into the general area ( outside the lounge) and invite a woman in!!
( problem partially solved)
Seriously,
I wonder what the distribution is by sex ( M:F) of Silver /Gold card holders and people in CW/CF? I would suspect that the majority wolud be male and thus account for the number of males in the lounges at this time!!
Regards

Well the women are all at home sitting with their feet up watching telly - Sorry.........cooking and cleaning I should say. 
The Business lounges are still very much male orientated I have to say unless the females have more important things on their minds rather than gorging on the free grub and drink. Like shopping for instance......BAA loves women.

As one who bats for the other team, can I say we have standards. It is quality not the quantity that matters. The quality is often lacking in the lounge and guys do not tend to show a lot of leg.
