Second Class?

Post Reply New Topic

So......I just joined this forum(Howdy Folks!) and now I noticed that there is a “Womans Only” thread, but no “Mens Only” thread ,what's up with that? Am I a second class user here? Yeah...I am nit picking...but still WTF.

Go to the Wrongplanet.net discussion forum. Search around a bit for a topic that concerns your question, it's already there.

Also, you should post an introduction topic in the "Getting to know you" forum about you, your DX or supposed DX, etc.

Yeah...While I appreciate your response( and I really do), I feel no need to scour a site to find the rationalization for a slight.

Oh..and I Love nachos.

And to be clear, I don't even want a "Mens only" thread. It is just the concept I object to.

Uh, no.

You will search for this topic yourself, we will not baby you that much. I already told you what forum to look in, and it's not even that far back. Look for it yourself plz.

I agree with you! (And I'm a woman)

Why would I search for why I do not count?


Oh, and thanks SapphoWoman, I was wondering if I was just way out of line...eh...still might be...

What is your problem with me? I'm just telling you to do something yourself rather than making us do it for you and you're utterly refusing. Why?

Gainful, it's because when there was a men's only forum, it caused a fair amount of offence to various members as a result of the nature of certain topics that were hateful towards women.

tmad40blue, I really have no problem with you, fact is that I think it is nice that you even bothered to reply. What I do have a problem with is that you are directing me to look at some group resolution to the problem I see.
You see, I don't care what sort of reasons people use to justify the slight, it is still a slight. And as I said earlier, I don't even want a “Mens Only”, it is not a gender thing, I just came here assuming we are equals.

Some of the men's only stuff was inciteful and spiteful and extremely derogatory of women. Now, I don't agree with women doing the same thing either but these comments were dreadful! A few of them still exist in the older threads of the adult's only forum if you're really interested in looking.

Ouch!....Yeah, most men are asses. But as I have said before, I am not looking for a mens only thing, it is just that online we are all just brains. And to discriminate based on gender is obnoxious.



P.S. Damn, you post fast.

As far as I know, the men's only forum came first. I could be mistaken but I think most of those old threads are now in the Adult's only thread. Men do post in the Women's only forum but hateful comments wouldn't be welcomed.

Well, uhhhhhhh.... because you made a topic asking about it, which indicates that you want to know?
Just look through the damn forum that was mentioned, it's not difficult. Click on a few buttons and use your eyes to read.

If I recall correctly, apparently it was shut both because of the derogatory stuff and because it wasn't generating much interest from the men of this site.

Good point!
Wow, talk about starting off on the wrong foot, I swear I am not trying to stir up trouble.
I looked at this site on the recommendation of my therapist ( yes, I have been diagnosed tmad40blue ) and the first thing I see, is an exclusion. I feel excluded enough, okay?
I really don't give <insert some words here that would make you mad> as to why I am excluded, it is the concept to which I object.
And just to save some typing, I will never look at the rationalizations behind this exclusion. I don't care why I am being stepped on, just that I am being stepped on.

I agree with you, I think there should be a Men's forum too. I just didn't see why it was so much trouble to search for info yourself after asking for it.
