Well, the victory goes to the men, though the women’s does have some good point too.
Them mens offers more shelter from the wind, which is good for starting and keeping the fire going. It also has higher sides that are good for sticking meat skewers over for cooking. The shape looks like a throne, which is where men rule from.
The women’s has a cooking grate, but not much room for a cooking fire beneath it. With the low sides, it is more vulnerable to the elements and has no way for water to drain out if it rains. A positive here is that is is round and offers more of a sense of community, inviting others to keep warm by the fire.
huh, weird.

Even though the men’s looks like it looks good…it’s just a big boxxy structure. The women’s by the way was made from stones dug out of the ground (since the men would not share their stones…in other words they didn’t have the rocks!)
And Mooney just so you know we did incorporate drainage and in fact the other day when it rained guess which one was wet and the other dry?

Well, let me start out with that I was able help build the womens’ pit. I utilized both pits over this past weekend at Tiki Beach. Both have great aspects.
The Womens’ pit has the ability to allow someone to use a hand held “cooker” without getting too hot. It allows water to drain when it rains. And it’s best quality is that it was made by women!!
The Mens’ pit was used over the weekend to cook a large meal. It worked well and was a nice fire. It did put of alot off heat, a little too much for the kids to roast marshmellows. It is the “fireplace” of pits. Nice job by men with no “rocks”.
