Hi guys, Canadian-born Taiwanese here! I’m going clubbing this weekend in Taipei for the first time, and don’t know what to bring/what to wear (I’m a girl, but also asking for my brother).
What do guys/girls normally wear? It seems like it’s a little less dressy than in Canada/America, what would be considered acceptable?
I don’t have Taiwanese citizenship, what sort of ID do I need to bring? Is Canadian drivers license okay, or would I need to bring my passport? Photocopy of passport?
From what I’ve seen though, not great to be a girl. Unless you want some random Taiwanese guy to start grinding against you I would stay away. People here seem to think you are asking for it if you go clubbing.
This reads to me like @meishijia is saying that guys think women in nightclubs are “asking for it”. It does not read anything like @meishijia is saying that women in nightclubs are “asking for it”.
Happy to. I was in line for a long time. Been there before with my ARC, no problem.
This time the lady at the door rudely pushes the ARC away with her hand and goes “No. No this. Passport or you dont go in!”
I go “What? I’ve been here before and it was oka-”
And suddenly these two AI bouncer type dudes put their hands on me and “walk me” to the elevator and say “That is before. This is now. You go. You go!”
I’m not an aggressive person or anything and I was genuinely confused. I suppose it is discrimination but at the time I was more livid that within about 7 seconds I went from calmly standing in line to get into a nightclub to suddenly having people manhandle me and physically moving my body to where they see fit. (Actually not the first time bouncers there have been unnecessarily physical)
Since that experience I absolutely abhor AI and will never go back.
TLDR: OP if you are looking to go to AI bring a passport and a wrestling mat.
