So what's the difference between the 'Mixed Lounge' an the 'Ladies Lounge'.
And has it always been that way?
Don't tell him you used to work there and let him argue till he's blue in the face.
Haha.

No 'blood lust' for a story on my part.
But I believe you are obfuscating!
As indicated by your 'when ere you last there' question, I believe things have changed from what they used to be. Good to hear.
A few of direct questions for Yes No answers.
Is there a Lounge with 'Mixed' in its name?
Is there a Lounge with 'Ladies' in its name?
Has there been a time when Males were not generally allowed in the 'Ladies Lounge'
Or access rights to either lounge differed.

You came on spouting that there is a sexism story at Dunbar.
Sorry to disappoint but there isn't.
GM are chucking around infractions left right and centre and maybe they need to look at slanderous posts too.....

If I'm around, I'll watch it. Mainly for the drama such events throw up, and a chance of stuffing the yanks. Not keen on the face paint, like others, but it is what it is. I saw most of the last one, and it was good viewing.
Better than stroke play.

I'm certainly not suggesting anything of the sort.
Though I strongly suspect there was separation of access in the (recent) past. The mere fact that, according to Fairway Dodger, there are lounges labeled 'Mixed' and 'Ladies' strongly suggests that!
Your simple answers to the questions in my previous post should confirm. You haven't done so yet, so there's a logical inference that things have been differen.
Though you seem to me to have a distinct 'bunker mentality' about answering a question with a straight Yes/No answer.
Indeed, as it should be.
Has it always been the case?
Why is it called the ladies lounge?
So did you Report it? If not why not?

Personally think it will be more entertaining than watching Jason Dufner waggle his way to winning the PGA.
The great thing about the last Solheim Cup was that it was a proper competition between two evenly matched teams, with the result in doubt right up to the last match. I also thought the quality of golf on the last day was superb under huge pressure.

Everyone can go everywhere outwith the loos and the locker rooms.....not even aware of anything different in the past. Where you put the yes or no is up to you.

I will definitely watch as much of this as possible. Love golf and this sort of competition makes it even more appealing. I also like the look of a few so that helps.

Didn't detect any sexism at dunbar and dont believe that was the context of my posts on the other thread, but the lounges are signed as "ladies" and "mixed". Definitely no segregation and I assumed the signs were historical but know nothing about it. Others here are clearly better placed to comment..... And have done so 
Looking forward to it, although could do without the face painting and cheerleading nonsense.

That's what I thought, though if Tommo can't remember, it might be in the distant past!
Either that or those labels have had a different meaning - as in opening hours/dress code.
Nothing sinister about my query, though I was probably misinformed when I first encountered them back in 2001 or 2002.
@thehunter. Can you explain the difference between 'Mixed Lounge' and 'Ladies Lounge' in a Golf Club? Is it a peculiarly Scottish pair of terms - as per Craw's statement about its presence in his club?

I said I'm not aware, can't remember is not what I said. The door marked ladies is just for that because they are different from us guys and they need a place to powder their nose, put their clubs and maybe talk about the missed putts before they go to the mixed lounge. There is a old style spike bar with lockers as well as a pool table. Its open to one and all. Oh there is a mens area as well. You know, for changing, showers, hairy bums, smelly shoes, lost headcovers.
