Quoting girleegirl:


Why is it that you pick this subject but say nothing about keith´s antics today, which were FAR more offensive????


Because it´s a matter between the mods and admins. We won´t deal with it in the public.


That´s a cop-out! I´m not saying that admin should come here and tell everyone that a mod has been censured! Do you not have an opinion of what happened? Mod´s speak out against mods all the time. You are members just like the rest of us. If you see something that outrages you then you have a right to speak up about it. It´s not a secret society is it?

Well,as i see its gone too far for what it worth it,but ok

Quoting girleegirl:

Quoting CANLI:


Are you kidding me ?! lol
Nope they said men farm of studs because we dont need them anymore ,is that appropriate ? lol
Look i dont mind making such jokes,actually ehhhmmm and more too,but not in forums !


Uhhhhh not quite canli. No one said it was a stud farm because we don´t need men. What was said was "We are looking for good genetic material...shouldn´t they be perfect from the get go???"


İ guess you need to reread the posts again gg to see what have been said exactly.

Quoting girleegirl:


But again, I think this is really quite silly for this to go on for so long. What´s more interesting it that none of you that are so offended by this JOKE seem to have been offended by keith´s personal, crude comments to another member. Strange priorities.



Ok lets put names into it gg,who are we kidding here ?
The issue between KeithL and handsom is well known,and went to far too from BOTH sides to be honest
İ dont know exactly what is the matter between them and if it is a personal matter or what,but if that is the case it would be nice if both of them take it out of forums.
Beside,you cant judge if we ´or me´ were offended or not,as i said,i think it was and is a personal matter,and discussing it at forums will make it more bigger than it should be
What do you think will be better,that we post a comment here to KeithL that ´you shouldnt have said that to handsom´ so KeithL will quote another comment from handsom to him says ´he started it´ then we should say,handsom you shouldnt say this ....ect ?!
Or its better if we take it out of forums ?!!!

Quoting Elisabeth:



You mods have all gone NUTS! (No offense to nuts)


mmmmmm,not nice Lise,not nice really

Well,we are not talking or discussing it from mods points of view
for 2 reasons actually,
First,i dont think something have been said here and deserve to be deleted or anything ´regarding men issue´
Second,if it was the case,so im sry,but mods wont discuss it first,there is the forum rules and we will be following it

As gg said,we are also members and we have our own opinions,and mine was no,its not appropriate that men farm,as it wont be appropriate if it was women farm.

And coming to it,yes we´ve talked about women here many times,but honestly none has ever made fun of women that way if i remember well
And if anyone did,it wouldnt be acceptable too
Even in a thread once i said in general women dont make good drivers and if i remember well cat wasnt happy about it,and we had long debats about it
So dont tell me its ok to joke about women!
Mostly, jokes were about men ´hairy men´ and that was jokes with handsom,and as long as its ok with him,then its not of my business.

I would like to let Elisabeth know that I am not the least offended if she calls me nuts! . Is it an offensive word in some other culture? However, I am a bit upset if she didn´t realise my comments were a joke

Well I think she DID mean it as a joke and, as I said, I certainly didn\´t take offense (offence??). The English/American sense of humour is clearly very difficult for the rest of the world to understand.

- Who mentioned George Bush and Tony Blair???

Quoting catwoman:

What has this proven? Nothing. Absolutely no connection between this and whether men are capable of raising children and whether women are capable of having professional careers.



Did I say men were incapable of raising children or that women are NOT capable of having prosessional careers? NO I did not.

I said....and please read very slowly over again...

We need to re-evaluate how we have been and are doing things.

You seem to have assumptions as to what I think and that leaks over to what you percieve I write. Read carefully please.

I do not make quick off hand statements. I think carefully about what I read and write. It would be appreciated if before commenting, some time spent reading and thinking were done.
