OH HELL!!! HERE WE GO. First - Personal attacks - not cool Second - Drama in the locker room - not cool Third - Women encroaching with petty bull**** in the one place on OH where we can avoid that crap - not cool Fourth - Obscene language is "Officially" prohibited by the OH Terms and Conditions of use.  Fortunately this is probably the second LEAST moderated board after the Sex board so we get away with lots more in here than anywhere else - way cool I agree that we need to keep any personal attacks in check but I also FULLY agree that this is the Locker Room and what happens in here stays in here.  I don't think the post in question was truly a personal attack, I think perhaps it was just over the top sarcasm. All men are welcome here.  All opinions are welcome.  I personally don't want women coming in here meat shopping and in my opinion, that's what the chick was doing.  "Oh I have this problem with this other guy and so I'm gonna bait you with it and see who bites and maybe I can hook a man from OH so we can have something in common........"    Please....stuff a tampon in it and take it back to a chick board. SJBob - you have a valid point.  At the same time take it with a grain of salt and remember this is a message board of opinions.  You have the right to disagree with anything you see here.

I have to agree with a couple of the opinions expressed so far though  I normally try to avoid chiming in on these kinds of things. I thought the post telling the woman to "take it back to the womens forum" was spot on.  Lately I've been bugged by the increase of postings by women on the men's board.  I don't care if they "lurk" but I want at least the illusion that people respect the purpose of having a Mens Forum.   This woman's post didn't belong to this forum. Isn't there a dating/singles forum? I have really found value in having a forum that is intended only for men. The volume of postings are much lower and far more appropriate for me than the general forums.  I like that there are fewer postings so I don't have to sort through the drivel.  That said, I also thought the personal attack was uncalled for.  Members of this forum normally keep it civil and that's a good thing.  It's worth calling out guys when they aren't civil.

OK, I am going to chime in too. I am fairly new to this board, but I consider it mine too now. I don't post a whole lot, but I am literally here reading every post every day. 1) I agree with the "women keep out" unless it is in regards to one of the guys policy. 2) Bad language? I work in a prison. Say what you want, I have heard it all and said most of it myself. 3) Baja, if the **** yourself was meant for JoeBear, I think it was out of line. If you intended it for her, I second it. (It was hard to tell who you meant it for and I say remember - Bro's before Ho's) 4) JoeBear - Sorry, but Baja was right. Read her freakin post. The woman IS ignorant, and that is putting it kindly. I mean, nice sentence structure, periods in the middle of sentences, what is that? That crap could have been put on the main board asking for guys to respond. There are plenty of guys that read that board that could have decided if they want to respond there. Just my 2 cents worth. Hey, It's only 2 cents, take it or leave it.

About item (4)... I also noticed the extra punctuation. It took a while but I just realized this could be a hidden message.  After all, too many periods sounds like a serious female problem!  Have a great day. Rich

My only question Bob, is "Why now?". This has all been a part of the Men's Forum ever since I can remember.

You mean a guy here (in this mainly supportive environment) telling another guy: "go f*ck yourself"? First time I've seen it.

It's all good fellas.    She shouldn't have posted on the forum in the first place.   The cause and effect of her posting is what's happening now.

Personally I find the lack of the following on this board refreshing:

"LOL, ROTFLMAO, sry, **HUGS**, 4EVA, the word 'sweetie', !!!WOO-HOO!!!, ur, the word "yummy", the word 'nipples', the color pink, 600K signature animations with stars, fairies and **** on them and all the other various abbreviations, anacronyms and emotes."
(the most aggravating of the above list to me is the unneccesary abbreviations.   sry for example.   Is it that forking hard to type an extra o and r? )
