Quoting girleegirl: What would be better is if people learned to lighten up and not take things so seriously!
Cat, I have to say that you have been involved in many of these jokes in the past so now for you to say it is inappropriate.....seems a bit like you are just trying to placate some members.  |
Well, I really meant it in an abstract way. Theoretically, it is wrong to villify any group of people, but in practice I think it is not as bad to make fun of men, as it is (especially for men) to make fun of women in certain ways (I´m saying "in certain ways", because there are some things about women that are quite right to make fun of). Maybe ´inappropriate´ was a wrong choice of word. I don´t think of course there is anything wrong with your jokes.

Well,actually cat,i find myself not understanding well,having some jokes never harm in a limit but that men farm thing,yes i find it inappropriate
Will you accept same concept if it is a women farm ?!
İ guess i wont
And because no man complained that would make it appropriate ?!
Should we wait till they complain and then we start to say yes thats not appropriate ?!!!

You can go ahead and say that it´s inappropriate, but I don´t see why they shouldn´t be allowed to make that joke. Most people won´t find it inappropriate. What did they say? That they want a "man farm" of hairless men? Is that so horrible?

Well Canli, it is not against forum rules. You may find it inappropriate, and you can express that, but other people don´t.

You can of course think what you want. Yesterday Alameda made that exact same comment, in a more straightforward way even. We haven´t deleted that one either.
Please, a little bit more tolerance.

Cat its not about deleting or not deleting,obviously nothing said here needs to be deleted,the discussion here was if its appropriate to talk that way,or not for both men and women
As you said,it seems appropriate to some,and not to others
And as i am from that others part,i made myself clear about it,so i rest my case.

Oh, ok, in that case you of course have the right to say this. I thought that you meant it should be deleted. Sorry
