3.And every night, I would go out with my friends on a Friday or Saturday night, and at the end of every night we would have a little conference and we would pool all of our money, and we would figure out how everyone was going to get home, because you couldn't go home on the subway by yourself and you couldn't walk home, and if you were a woman, you definitely were not allowed to go home by yourself at one o'clock in the morning on a Saturday night
