this better not be a double standard where if a chick calls some guy here a prick, dick or whatever and everyone overlooks it.

In all seriousness, this is a welcome, and, IMHO, long overdue notice. Many of the comments I see towards women of this forum are downright creepy. Some of these people act like they've never seen a woman before, and fuel the stereotype that this forum is a bunch of hormonally challenged pimple farmers.

:thumbsup:

You think that's a stereotype? I think it's the cold hard truth for 80% of the people here.

Given the thread title and first sentence, this is quite obviously some chick who got pissed off that she got called a dirty name, and not the least bit about whether men give a damn if they get called a dick or keeping the forums "decent".

Actually, it was a man who was called a c*nt yesterday. It sucks that the person who said it got banned. If you said it was a female moderator who made this sticky however, I wouldn't be surprised.

It's still someone being offended by a stupid word on a web forum. And naturally it's all the fault of us dirty men who just want to club women over the head, and all they want is to play teaparty.

Evermore, your sig better be changed next time I log on, and I mean ALL of it! You are pushing it! The posted message was out of respect and courtesy to our female members. That is not open for debate, it's just the way it is. BTW, this thread was started by a male moderator. It will now be locked.
