For ____ Only
I'm not trying to pick at people, or be mean, but there is something that keeps going on in this forum that bugs me. I keep seeing "for girls only" or "for guys only". I mean, if you're talking about "How big is your yeah...." then that would make sense, but for something like, and this is just an example I've seen, it's not to be mean "like omgosh my boyfriend and i had sex, and the condom broke!!! girls only plz"... that's just a bit... exclusive. I think that telling someone not to help you is just... well... not the way to go about things. Anyone have some thoughts?

Re: For ____ Only
Believe it or not, not all guys want to discuss women, or beer, or sports. You are being incredibly well.... you're making an unfair generalization. I do not like beer, or sports. And I am not going to disucss women with other guys, because sometimes they say derogatory things and talk about women like objects.
But to the point, this is not discrimination at all. I'm trying to get PAST the "discrimination". And this isn't a big deal or anything, I just thought I'd put it out in the air.

...its a stereotype.
And yes, some men doooo like those things. I mean, i enjoy discussing women, beer/alcoholic beverages, and watching the game/discussing the events of the game.
But i geussss we could ahve aguys forum where we could discuss about how much we all love each other and draw pretty pictures.

Re: For ____ Only
Yeah. I find it utterly pointless since whoever wants to reply, replies anyway, despite being the excluded gender.
I wish I were a spy.

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you
I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do

Re: For ____ Only
Yeah. If I see a post saying 'for guys only' I'm so tempted. My brain just races like 'open it open it open it open it open it open it open it'. (I'm a girl) It only makes me want to look more, lol.
I traded my dreams for this mess of memories

Of course, some things, girls would know more, like...girl stuff.? And guys know more about guy stuff.
Tora, don't take offense to this, but you seem to have a lot of stereotypical ideas about what a guy is "supposed to be" and what a girl is "supposed to be".
I just want you to take into account that not all guys are macho womanizers, and not all girls are makeup crazy sluts.
You really need to consider the fact that not everyone plays the stereotypical gender role.[/b][/quote]
i'm quite aware of this sir, sinc ei dont seem to fit into your little stereotype myself. And, if you read my posts, you would probably be able to come to that conclusion yourself.
But really, some girls DO know more about girl stuff. Except when you meet a guy who knows a lot about periods because he has them all the time. Generally, you tend to know more about things which you have. Like, i'm sure girls know a lot more about breasts than i could ever hope to know. And i'm sure guys know more about penises since we kind of have them.
Wheee. I'm Hyper-Emo.

Meh, doesn't matter. I mean, I think that anyone should be able to reply, just in a polite enough manner that won't start a war.

Re: For ____ Only
I DO think its kinda pointless, cos If I see a post that says "guys only please" I read it anyway because I'm so curious!
HOWEVER, I understand why people do it. I mean, if I girl is asking about period pain, or bumps on her vaginal wall, she might not be comfortable with guys reading it, and, chances are, they wont know what advice to offer, having never been through it, wheras a girl would!
