I've had that kind of trouble--there is a women's bar/restaurant/dance-
hall in Oakland called Ollie's where I've had one brush with unpleasant
people.  Well, they were drunk, and thus probably a little more surly
than they might have been otherwise.  And I'd say that I'm the better
for such harassment--people should know that women can (and, in other
circumstances, *should*) act like that.  Now I know.

Which is not to badmouth Ollie's!  They have the problem pretty much
solved--there is the REAL bar (separatist), the dining area (mixed,
but sometimes with funny vibes), and the dance-hall/theatrical area
(where anyone can buy drinks and have a good time.)  The food is good,
the entertainment is frequently off-beat but endearing, and the people
are (with the above-noted exception) quite friendly.

Check it out if you're in the East S.F. Bay Area. ***
