(FIJI's used to...) anyway, we play poker and chat. back in the day we used to have ladies from the sororities be "name tag chicks" and "drink chicks." A few years ago our IFC agreed to go chick free at rush, so not there cant be any women at our functions. Sucks, but some groups were abusing the lack of policy. You know the drill.... one group's gotta screw it up for the rest of us....

LIfe is right, the term Smoker comes from another era, but he didn't share the whole story with you . . .
In days past Smokers involved smoking, but also a lot of alcohol and girls of a more promiscious nature . . . that were usually encouraged to shed most if not all of their clothing . . . equivalent of a Sorority Tea my ass. . . lol those would be pretty risque Teas and would probably have Chipendales there . . .

I have this mental image of a bunch of highly attractive genteel southern women sipping tea and sticking dollw bills down some big sweaty chippendales g-string
So BrownEyedGirl, you seem the epitome of a nice genteel Southern Lady. . . I am surprised you would be the female component of such Smokers . . .
