Talk:Club

From Wikisocion

I decided to change "socialites" to "socials." This is because the word "socialite" means someone who likes to talk a lot to everybody. Gulenko created the new word "sotsial" to describe them and didn't mean "socializers," so I am following his example to create the new word "social" (noun). The other terms are good.

Another inane Wiki question -- how can I correct the links in the clubs' names? I mean, how should they be called in order to work? Expat 14:35, 23 June 2007 (CDT)

Do clubs "convene" by themselves?

Re: Clubs are often a common nucleous of spontaneous social interaction (as opposed to "non-spontaneous" as in work, study etc) in modern western societies, and therefore a very common point of formation for social groups,...

I haven't actually observed clubs coming together by themselves, so I've viewed them more as a theoretical grouping. At most it seems like three come together, but there is always one missing. I think the quasi-identical relations here are most "repulsive." It seems like it all depends on the nature of one's interests and whether one has professional interests that really closely match one's club. I can't imagine coming together with all the humanitarians... Ne types yes -- it happens all the time. --Admin 22:15, 17 July 2007 (BST)

well, I know well at least one religious group that seems to have a few IEIs besides IEEs and EIIS. Expat 22:18, 17 July 2007 (BST)
In the leadership or among members? --Admin 22:47, 17 July 2007 (BST)
