Well guess what.
Since I'm the moderator, I can consider the vote, but I'll only use it as a guideline. So if I find guys posting too much for my liking, I have the moderator tools to deal with it.
After all, if guys are chasing away input from females, then there's an obvious issue to be dealt with. We cannot say "we are an open minded community with respect for others and desiring respect for ourselves" and then not respect the issue of females who might not be ready to share their high heeled experiences with men on every level.
University had co-ed bathrooms, but for the most part, we still have a men's room and a women's room, and there is a nice aspect of a secret societal bond between women when they go to the powder room and make men wonder what is going on.
Just as the boys like to get together some times, so do the girls, and I think we need to respect that.
We are all equal, sure, but we're not the same. And space is needed on either side of this issue. |
