If you are a woman and have gone out anywhere at any time, probably and unfortunately, you have experienced some type of harassment by a man. This happens especially when you go to a nightclub, because there is never a lack of someone who wants to dance with you by force, go too far or, worse still, put something in your drink.
These types of situations make many women avoid going to these places to have a good time with their friends, because they fear for their safety. Precisely, this inspired Teddy Edwardes, a 32-year-old English woman, to create a nightclub that only admits women.
Teddy is an English model who later became an entrepreneur by starting a women’s nightclub called LICK. This case went viral on the TikTok social network after the girl uploaded a video with the caption “Six years ago a man ruined my night out for the last time so I created a women-only nightclub.”
The recording with 3.6 million views shows images of the club completely full of women who are seen to be having the best night of their lives, enjoying themselves calmly and dressed as they want.

Teddy assures that every night around two thousand women attend the club, which is why people went crazy in the comments, because they are all delighted with the idea and ask for more places like this to open around the world.
‘There I would feel safe’; ‘I need this in my life’; ‘As the mother of three daughters who are about to turn 18, I support this place 100 percent’; “I stopped going out to crowded places like concerts and bars because of men, I’d go here in a second.”

Like when there’s not a single man in the club who can ruin the atmosphere.
The club has now been open to the public for six years and its creator could not be happier and prouder to have a space where women can have fun without worrying about harassment, without anyone having to live bad experiences like her ever again.
Although before creating this place, Teddy had to put up with a lot of sexist comments from men, who argued that a women’s club would be boring and would never work because “women don’t like to pay for themselves”.

However, everyone has already verified that it would work and that women are happy in places designed especially for them. It’s a great idea that I wish could be extended to all countries.
