Having said this, this discussion has gone a bunch of different directions. It started with Joe just wanting to bring a date to a function. What's wrong with that? Are villager's so snotty that you can't welcome a date from someone who lives there? I see nothing in his posts that says his date wants to start taking over clubs and facilities, nor attending without Joe. I've read the rules and I get it, and I'm ok with it. But geez, it's a guy wanting to bring a girl that doesn't own a house here. What's the big? Some of these comments come off as we can only breed with our own. Seems pretty one sided. I also understand, that many are married an could care less about the singles, but doesn't everyone at least have the chance to find that someone?

These were my thoughts exactly as I read all the responses. TV residents (not all obviously) seem greedy and have a sense of entitlement. What exactly is being taken away from the married residents if a 'single' Village resident wants to bring a date to the golf course? If it's about the amenity fee - the 'single' resident is still paying the SAME amenity fee as the married residents! If the single should get married, then of course, everyone is in agreement.

Doesn't make sense to me - 'single' discrimination I say.
