It may not have lasted long, but I remember being more than a little surprised at just how enthusiastically some of our lady members joined in on this particular discussionArch said:Spot on.
I've noticed that 'hot men' threads tend not to last long. I don't know if this is a comment on the difference between what men and women look for in a partner in general, or whether it merely reflects a skewed sample of women on this forum, whereas the male members represent better the whole gamut of male attitudes. I know that personally, although I can drool with the best of them, there are many other more important qualities in a man.

You get a warning if you use the word 'bloody', so that can be a challenge if you are in the woundcare forum, you get a warning if you put '****' or similar ('!!!!') instead of a word. You get a warning for any post which the moderators 'percieve' as rude, insulting, indecent, prejudiced or "out of keeping", despite context or where any word appears in a sentence.
It's a bloody nightmare, it is extremely stifling of any debate or humour, and posts are constantly flagged for even posting a differing point of view. It's possibly the blandest forum on the web, and I would hate to see CC go the same way because everyone is treading on eggshells the whole time.

I hasten to add that just because I have quoted the honourable member for Cheddar and Gorgeousness, this remark pertaining to the conveyance of a coach and horses through a particular policy or guideline, is not aimed at the afore-said member. :?:
