Can we take over the Masons' job when they die? |

Or maybe this is better...?
"Bring me a fez for my head" was somehow confused with "bring me the head of Fez!"

There are co-Masonic groups that allow women through all degrees. The "Main Droit" is in Atlanta. I have friends who are high degree female Masons. They freak th old men out when they know all the grips nad words for the high degrees.
Masonry takes a hell of a lot of your time. That's why I never joined up.
The ROJ's I knew were doctors and lawyers. I knew some of the heads. I glanced at their dues and party plans. Whew! But if you got in one of their New Orleans parties!
I can paraphrase "If a man is your fiend when sober, good. If he is still a true friend when drunk, he's a real friend."

This Masonic for women only book is from 1922.
I found a whole box of "secret" Masonic books from 1900's to the 1930's. Make's for some good reading material before bed time.

The "Main Droit" female Masonry is international and accepted. I do not know of other Lodges beside the one in Atlanta. The Fez is not a Mason thing I don't think. Shriners.

"Spankings" will be administered only to certain indviduals of a certain critera who seem to richly deserve it! Certain ... saucy indviduals, shall we say...
Okay, that's Rule Number One for the Sacred Lodge of the All-Knowing Tiki!
I say Rule Number Two should be ... no throwing of live ammunition into the fire pit!

I might have missed something along the way, but I've been told by reliable sources that a woman's entry into the Masonic world is as a "Jobe's Daughter". I've run into a few of these special ladies in my travels and they've all been...HOT!

I didn't see it mentioned, but there is The Order of the Eastern Star for women. Not sure of theexact nature of the Order, but it is the womens wing of the Masons, as I understand it. One of my high school girlfreinds grandmothers was a member.

I've also heard of a ladies' auxilliary called "Daughters of the Nile" ... sounds so alluring I think I may apply.
