My museum dates were taking advantage of free museum Tuesdays for residents.
You have stated you live in Boston, I was there last year. Beautiful city with so many inexpensive museum options, plus the massive park that had events going on every day that I was there and the historical walks were great. Try some of these:
Many of these have discounted admission for residents and members. There is also the Boston Aquarium, which is $39.95 per person, but that can easily be turned into a multiple hour event and membership is only $79 per individual. They aren’t all $50, you just have to look at their websites and check for discounts.
Hi! I have a vagina and I identify as a woman, I am also a working professional in my 40s and I live in an urban area. I love museums and I think they make perfect dates and I often go to the same museums multiple times. The Boston Public Library was beautiful, there is an entire section that is dedicated to art and history. I didn’t see a single thing that you described during my walk through. There was a live taping for the local NPR station at the cafe though, that was pretty cool to watch.
I’ve noticed your complaints up and down this thread, I’ve also noticed them around the threadiverse for a while and I am beginning to see a pattern. You tend to be aggressively argumentative, denigrate women as a whole/complain about “woke”, refuse to see things from other people’s perspectives, and don’t listen to anyone’s advice. Have you ever heard the phrase “if everyone around you is an asshole, then maybe you’re the asshole”? Perhaps part of the issue is your behavior and attitude.
Anyway, you can look for ways to change or stay angry, doesn’t make a difference to me. Either way I hope you have a wonderful day ✌️
I am also a vagina holder! My First ever real date was, to the Wadsworth Museum in Hartford! It was very very fun! Ive been to them a few times, always a good expierence
dkppunk, I have this person blocked from previous encounters, no doubt for the reasons you listed.
Museums are a great date idea! Just sayin
Yeah, I don’t blame you for blocking lol. I don't block much because the threadiverse is pretty small, but I do tag folks often so I can remember things. I have this person tagged for misogyny and I typically ignore folks I have tagged for stuff like that. I decided to reply this time, but it’s pretty obvious why that guy hasn’t been able to hold a relationship for very long. Lots of negativity, complaining about women, and probably has his standards way too high, but oh well 🤷♀️
Museums make great dates! As do aquariums and zoos!
