Our local car wash, when we lived in northern California, used to offer "Ladies' Special" on Tuesday and "Gentlemen's Special" on Wednesdays. All it meant was that on Tuesday and Wednesday, you got your car hand-washed and vacuumed for under ten bucks if you happened to be a woman or a man, depending on the day. On other days, for everyone, the same treatment of the car cost about 15 dollars.
I was totally puzzled by Olivia concluding that Doris was a lesbian because she was present at "Ladies' Night" and that it was considered a Lesbians' Night simply by being termed Ladies' Night the way Olivia's conversation proceeded with the barkeep.
All my life in these United States, I have struggled to establish that I am an Asian, though not of the race that people here associate with the word 'Asian' - now I have to struggle to establish that I may be a lady because I am a woman who behaves in a ladylike fashion (even when I am annoyed past endurance) in spite of not being a lesbian?



, which btw way, in my experience
they don't have signs that say that either! I think the writers are treating us like we are stupid, like we couldn't figure out that it was a gay bar
by all the women present-which is hard to do because they didn't hire actors that represent the population very well, (butch and lip stick)!
