And in case you can't read it without signing in:
RePlay near Central Station is one of the city clubs that has adopted "lone women policies".
They no longer allow women who appear vulnerable ? drunk ? to leave the club on their own without a taxi or a friend to pick them up.
Mark Donlevy is business development manager for RePlay's owners, Stefan King's G1.
He said: "We don't allow females to leave on their own. There are people outside who try and approach such girls.
"We would rather keep intoxicated customers on our premises than have them go away.
"If we don't have a safe venue customers won't come back."
I'm in two minds about it. If I had a teenage daughter, I'd probably be quite pleased that they're adopting this policy. However, I think I'd be equally enraged if I wasn't allowed to leave. This information is taken from a longer, excellent, article about what the police and clubs and pubs are doing to keep the city centre safe at night - taxi queue wardens, street pastors with flip-flops and phones etc.
