How come I almost never see black women at bars?

I even see Black people at The Plantation bar, which some find ironic. We affectionately call it The Plant and the only problems there are when some sings some tragic karaoke.

I started to say Montana or North Dakota but I used Idaho earlier in another conversation so I just flowed with it.

I doubt I would ever go to a bar, club, or lounge named Plantation, even if Michael Ealy himself was there. But I also don't plan to live in a subdvision or on a street with the word plantation in it. But that's just me.

Co-sign...When I lived in Atlanta there were so many subdivisions and apt. complexes with the word "plantation" in them...I could never bring myself to live somewhere with that name in it...

Same with Charlotte.

I just can't go there.

To Dionysus, well I don't know what to tell you other than suck it up.

I live only a mile from a street called "plantation".

I don't really want to live in a subdivision. I like condos.

Maybe some people do not have their eyes open?

I own a home in a Charlotte "plantation"

damn ya'll are making me feel bad...nahhhh I like my spot....and my friends and I frequent bars in downtown Charlotte....Fox and Hound, Cosmos, Therapy....there are usually only a handful of Black females at these spots....I'm kinda past the club scene but I enjoy a nice lounge....

I see black women at bars all the time - but maybe that's because I usually go with my black friends.
