Deviant women

I think a women's Fight Club could look the same as the men's representation of Fight Club with just the opposite sex. Fight Club does not exist as a place for men to fight, it is a lifestyle. Fight Club is about a willingness to abandon everything from your past to start a more meaningful future. Women can definatly exist within this world.

The author of Fight Club stated that the type of club wasn't the important factor in the book. He said it could have been anything. I think the sex of the characters is less important than the venue. Women and men aren't so different. The men in Fight Club are middle class Americans frustrated with thier position in life. Women know that frustration as well as men do.

I do think that the relationships between characters would differ if women were involved. Men and women bond differently and I think that would be apparent in the female Fight Club. The women would have a stronger bond, they would care about each others feelings and progress.
