Is sex all girls ever think about? Can't ladies night be about platonic drunken friendship?

Sure we can. Haven't met a man yet that can do that platonic thing sober, never mind drunk.

Ladies nights are for the bar to fleece guys of money for full priced drinks thinking they are going to score because they don't have a clue about Ladies night.
Bars packed with women, drinking little and constantly on their guard to fight off the hoard.
Or, they run in packs and no man can get a chance.
Super hot women (about 10%) are being hounded by 90 percent of the guys.
The other women (90%) are PO'ed that the men are targeting the hot women and take it out on any guy who even makes an attempt at conversation.
Ladies night has always been a poor bet in my opinion.

Sounds like sour grapes to me Pote. With those percentages to toss out you must have been to quite a few and kept score. 
Its been a long time since I attended Ladies Nights. I always enjoyed them and always went home with a willing gorgeous Lady.
I took my wife.......
