AITA for publicly telling this guy "This is a COLLEGE party. You are 26" and kicking him out of my party?
In a world where college parties often blur the lines between fun and discomfort, one junior fencer vowed to reclaim the night for her p*ers.
Surrounded by teammates who shared her passion and frustration, she transformed their rented house into a sanctuary—where laughter echoed freely and respect ruled the room. No longer would the shadows of unwelcome guests taint the joy of youthful celebration.
Her resolve was fierce, born from countless nights watching underclassmen girls being preyed upon and dismissed as mere "fresh meat." With every invitation sent and every door opened, she built a haven where safety and camaraderie thrived, proving that college parties could be vibrant, inclusive, and free from the toxicity that once haunted her memories.

The original poster (OP) experienced frustration with past party dynamics where older, graduated alumni who were no longer students frequented college parties, often making younger members uncomfortable.
By setting clear boundaries and rules for the party hosted at their rented house, the OP attempted to create a more age-appropriate social environment for current students and team members.
This action directly conflicted with the es**blished, albeit unspoken, tradition upheld by some current teammates who expected the party to remain open to recent alumni, leading to disagreement over the host's right to set guest limitations.
Was the OP justified in setting strict age and status-based guest limitations for a party hosted on their private rental property, even if it broke es**blished club party norms, or did changing the rules unilaterally infringe upon the es**blished social inclusion expected by some current team members?
