18-Year-Old DD Clubbing alone

[WagonWheel1234]

DD turns 18 in a couple of weeks and wants to go to an all-female gay club night (it's a once-a-year-thing apparently) in Covent Garden on NYE, then walk back to Waterloo and get the train home in the small hours - no friends want to come so she'd be totally alone.

I'd be OK with her going with a friend but I think alone is a bad idea when she's never been clubbing before and isn't that used to drinking. No gay clubs in our town, so she feels like it's her only opportunity to go and experience this. She'll be at uni next year and I'm sure there will be things like that at uni, but she says all gay clubs are full of men and straight women and this is unique.

AIBU to say no?

According to my DD, my nieces and their friends, it's not British guys who are harassing them.

Really?

@Slothfully do tell.

Same thing my daughter told me. She works in London a few days a month and said exactly the same thing.

They're not in London but I'll get banned if I say who harasses them because on MN it's fine to denigrate Brits but "racist" to say who's really bothering young women in this country.

Yes I thought you came across racist! I'm not surprised you're. It allowed to say.

Shameful

There are foreign creeps too, but just by virtue of statistical distribution I've encountered far more British perverts. (Also, some with really posh accents in nice clothes, undoubtedly in naice bits of society, maybe with lovely wives at home. I think because I'm East Asian, I have the questionable privilege of being privy to a different side to them.)

I'm not in the least bit racist but, ironically, you have proved my point perfectly.
