- citr,
I noticed that recently in one of the politics threads, someone said something like "And huge props to [female poster X], and not just for her hot pics!"
And not just, eh?
You don't very often see stuff like "Wow great points man, you really are more than a big cock!"
How is this kind of stuff received, on your end? This is a largely sexual site, so perhaps it's not quite as inflammatory and offensive as it would possibly be in other settings. Appreciating rockin' bodies is a big part of what goes on here. But just on the level of pure engagement, does this kind of comment make you less likely to engage in the debate/thread? Does it make you feel less welcome? Do you find that it happens often around here? Or does it not bother you at all? I'm feeling decently bitchy today, so maybe I'm just reaching for reasons to be an arse about things. But it did seem like the kind of "below the surface" unintentional dig that could make a woman feel less welcome in a thread or sub-forum, even perhaps without anyone initially realizing what happened.
What do you think?
