PRIVATE BOUNCER
NY Post ^ | 11/10/05 | BRIAN NIEMIETZ

If you want to flirt with Darcy Smith, beware. You'll have to get through her personal bouncer first.

Brendan Reed, a 6-foot-5, 315-pound tough guy Smith affectionately calls "the medium-sized one," is one of three muscle-bound diplomats Smith uses to ward off admirers when she goes clubbing with her friends.

For $10 an hour plus expenses, Reed ensures that unwanted Romeos don't start dirty dancing or asking for the women's phone numbers.

"Some men can be really aggressive," said Smith, a 30-something entrepreneur from South Orange, N.J. "It makes the experience a lot more pleasant. My bodyguard's my most valued accessory."

A free-lance bouncer trained in judo, Reed hovers stealthily in the background of bars and clubs, and Smith often forgets he's there.

"Guys don't know when to draw the line," said Reed, who goes out with groups of women three to four times a month. "The club scene is getting worse. Bouncers [at the door] are there to collect their money and go home. They don't care" what happens on the dance floor.

Smith is married and owns the West Village restaurant Andavi with her husband David Kokakis. But waving her ring does little to dissuade cocky New Yorkers.

She's ok but I'm not sure she requires a bouncer. I think she must be pretty high on herself.

Of course, she could avoid a lot of this if she would just put her baby feeders back in their pouch.

I know "no means no", but maybe if they'd stop wearing lingerie in public it wouldn't be such an issue. I mean that's the #1 reason I don't taunt the fellas by wearing my flannel granny gown out in public.

What does she do to bring on all the throng of admirers? And what or who is her husband doing while she's out clubbing with her girlfriends? If the clubs she frequents are so bad she needs 3 bodyguards, perhaps she should consider taking up knitting.

See, that's why I don't let the twins out in public, all hell would break loose....

If you're going to go out in a shirt that screams "Grab my goodies!", I guess this makes sense...

Very nice. Your cam worked very well. Too bad the rest of the FReepers missed the show.
