My first deleted thread

[Pale Rider]

As has already been said, it's Shaun's site and it was Shaun's decision. He knows that he has a good few loyal women members of the forum who dislike these sorts of demeaning threads. I admire his persistence. Men who want to gawk at naked women and keep on trying to start 'Girls in Lycra'-type threads are very welcome to clear off to BikeRadar.

TMN,
Are you really so stupid as to think this thread was started for men to gawp at images of women?

Give your head a shake.

If you look back to page 1 you will see I agreed with him taking the pics down , will you stop assuming otherwise !

The sad thing is that you and your little chums demean us without even knowing that you have.

Please stop !!, no one is demeaning anyone , quote otherwise and I will try to explain why the comments are not demeaning but actually the opposite!

My first thought was to tell you to 'grow a set', but I suspect that might only make things worse.

I do find it hard to take any of these objections seriously, but if you feel demeaned by this innocuous thread I honestly think you are being wildly over-sensitive.

farking spectacular fail there. The problem with owning a set of bollocks is that some feel compelled to think with them. And talk them.

Ach, do I look bovvered?

Duffest thread ever! I imagine that few people will be surprised or offended by Greek Raleigh ads from the 50s being sexist. It would be more surprising if they weren't. It might even have formed the basis for an interesting topic of discussion. Instead it was just schoolboy tit-pic with a sad commentary, nostalgically longing for a time when no-one would mind what a sad wan*er you might be and when you could assume your audience was as male and as half-witted as you were.

And take it upon themselves to realign the moral compass of others.

(Having first got the wrong end of the stick through their own ignorance and prejudice).

Has it never occurred to you to wonder why three out of four likes (at the current time) for srw's post are from women? Why do you think that is?

 

[theclaud]

Oh, and for those who missed the highly sophisticated OP in the thread under discussion, it was something along the lines of "I bet she's good for a thousand-miler". It would not be to the detriment of the place if people of this frame of mind simply farked off and shared their tit-pics amongst themselves.

I admire the heroic attempts at fairness, Wobblers, but the whole point of stuff like the OP of the original thread is to exclude women from the dialogue, and to start up a conversation for men.

If that's what was said then by the OP then he is on his own !
