NOT a parody

Not a parody--well maybe a bit of superiority by the Times, as usual. Dating a banker anonymous. NY Times:

They shared their sad stories the other night at an informal gathering of Dating a Banker Anonymous, a support group founded in November to help women cope with the inevitable relationship fallout from, say, the collapse of Lehman Brothers or the Dow’s shedding 777 points in a single day, as it did on Sept. 29.

In addition to meeting once or twice weekly for brunch or drinks at a bar or restaurant, the group has a blog, billed as “free from the scrutiny of feminists,” that invites women to join “if your monthly Bergdorf’s allowance has been halved and bottle service has all but disappeared from your life.”

Apparently the site has a few mistresses on it who complain they've been dumped since the wives are now scrupulous about checking the credit card bills. And the ultimate horror? The bad market in NY forced a move to the Midwest...but I like the push-back on feminists part.
