Lady Cave

[jackofall84]

So, I'm sure you're all aware, when a man has a space/room he can go to get away in his house with all sorts of manly gadgets people refer to it as a man cave.
Well anyway my partner told me she was going to her friends Friday night with a few of the other girls to see her friends new lady cave. This is some sort of space her husband created for her in the old garden office with lots of lady gadgets. How I kept a straight face during the conversation I was having with my partner I will never know:

Me: So how many of your friends are going with you to see Charlotte's lady cave Friday night?
Her: 3
Me: And will you all fit inside?
Her: Yes
Me: Comfortably or will it be quite a tight squeeze
Her: It will probably be a bit of a squeeze, It's quite small I think.
Me: and does it have a garden attached to it?
Her: Yes I think so, why are you so interested?
Me: I'm not particularly, it's just I've never seen Charlotte's lady cave before so I'm just trying to picture it.
Her: I'm sure she'll let you have a quick look when you come and pick me up.

I had to stop there as anymore and I wouldn't have been able to keep a straight face.

Anyone else heard of a lady cave before?

Not a lady cave, but my mother has similar where she keeps her horse stuff. She referred to it as her Glory Hole the other day. I almost threw up.

I’ve heard of similar before. Stupid idea same as man caves.

I'm such a child but really don't know how I would have kept a straight face either. In fact it's the very reason I clicked the thread title!

Everyone should have a space of their own.

Calling it a cave is a bit demeaning. I prefer the term 'fk off room'.

Familiar with a Lady Garden, a Lady Cave though? Not so much.

[GAjon]

If it’s out in the garden, she’ll have to keep it clean and tidy or it’ll start to smell a bit musty very quickly.

‘Lady Cave’ could potentially be one of three things;

A euphemism,
An outdoor version of Fritzls cellar
Nick Caves aristocratic wife.

That is all.

Tell me more about these lady gadgets that Charlotte's got.

Yep. My late M-I-L referred to the cupboard under the stairs in the same way. I was tempted to look up which came first (fnarr), but decided, upon reflection, not to bother......

Kitchen, living room, dining room, bedroom...basically any room that isn't the garage IME.

Here's the entrance to my media 'wing'. Sadly for me, the sign is almost as large as the 'wing' itself.

ETA: Flippin random picture flipper!

Oddly I have a family home with rooms that aren’t segregated for use by specific family members only or gendered unnecessarily.

No door. Just some heavy curtains.
