Yeah... I can just see that forum now...
"Did you see the bold and the beautiful yesterday?"
"Yes, I did... weren't those trousers well pressed?"
"Lovely trousers! I wonder what sort of washing powder he uses?"
"I think it's Ariel liquid wash and go."
"Do you know you can wash in 30 degrees with that?"
"Seriously? Oh, that will save us lots of money. What with young Betsy becoming 8 next month."
"Oh? Really. What are you getting her?"
"A toy vacuum cleaner. She's really like her mum, you know."

Russ,
Can we have a forum just for ladies?
It seems like it would be so much more ..... pleasant and.... non confrontational.
Thanks!
🙂
How many guys on the net pretend to be female?
And how many of these guys would a ladies forum entice?

There is a setting in the Personal Setting, but how do anyone know if the setting is the right one?
And what about a gents forum at the same time? Wehre ladies are not allowed...?
Do we really like to have a gender apartheid, anyway?
Originally posted by catnap642A Ladies Forum is a great idea. 🙂 The site is male dominated, so it would be a change - and Shav, you may be surprised at the content! 😛

How many men join a chess site and pretend to be a woman? 😕
Originally posted by FabianFnasMaybe that will be the task of the new game mod structure, to be able to detect 'womanlike' moves made by 'males' and vice versa. 😕

I think there are a lot more women than there seems to be.

Using the same example as the space cowboy:
"Did you see the bold and the beautiful yesterday?"
"Yes, I did... weren't those buttocks well shaped?"
"Er... er... yeah... Lovely trousers! I wonder what sort of washing powder he uses?"
"I drooled just thinking about those buttocks"
"..."
"Want to share some nude pics?"
*pushes alert button frantically*
A Ladies Forum would have no offensive stuff, no personal abuse, no misogynist males trying to disrupt it, and no frustrated males looking for hot babes. Oh, and no bragging look-at-me threads either.
Yeah, right ....
Not unless you put a couple of armed eunuchs on door security. 🙂
That image of women as peace loving, well mannered, kind beings is
soooo overrated, if not fake.
When angry or in "cat fight mode", women are the meanest, most
unfriendly persons I've met.
With a man you can fight until bleeding. Then have a pint and chat
about personal stuff. With a woman, never.
Hey, just check Margaret Tatcher! (in case she was, actually, a she)

Serious - does it matter who is male and who is female? Aren't we liberated from that old victorian stuff yet? We are in the year 2008, not 1008... We are not (most of us, anyway) talibans either...
Let's skip that male/female crap, like we skipped white/black crap once. We are all the same when we play chess.
There comes a time
When we head a certain call
When the world must come together as one
There are people dying
And it's time to lend a hand to life
The greatest gift of all
We can't go on
Pretneding day by day
That someone, somewhere will soon make a change
We are all a part of
God's great big family
And the truth, you know love is all we need
[Chorus]
We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me
Send them your heart
So they'll know that someone cares
And their lives will be stronger and free
As God has shown us by turning stone to bread
So we all must lend a helping hand
[Chorus]
We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me
When you're down and out
There seems no hope at all
But if you just believe
There's no way we can fall
Well, well, well, well, let us realize
That a change will only come
When we stand together as one
[Chorus]
We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me
Funny this. Maybe i'm wrong, but Women have tried for decades, nae hudreds of years to break into Men's clubs, and shout Sexism at any Men only ventures.
What wouldv'e happened if a man asked for a men's only forum ?
The idea sounds way too sleazy to me, and segregation of this fashion would only give rise to a whole new form of trolling, one we don't need on this site.
Originally posted by huckleberryhoundI asked the question "And what about a gents forum at the same time? Where ladies are not allowed...?" and got no answers at all. Women generally don't like men-only things. Black people doesn't like white-only things either. Probably of the same reason.

We liv in the 2008 now, not in the dark middle ages. We don't like apartheid of either sort.
