You really dont want to know what i think of that thread....... Actually, Friday I was abit tight with work so i dint even see it... I saw it this morning and i had not even finished reading before it was deleted..... but from the bit i read, i am not sure what any lady worth of her salt would have been expected to contribute. In any case,there were guys who objected to the same thread and were conveniently ignored.....
First and foremost, let me say it was all "boys(men) talk"... i am yet to see any modest lady participating in "boys talk". That is what i would expect the men to discuss in absence of ladies and when/if they do respect the ladies, they will not discuss such stuff on their face. Should I, for instance, found myself with my friends (men) and they started a topic like that with total disregard of my presence(which i have not experienced), i would conviniently excuse myself and leave - of course feeling very humiliated....
If the thread was not bordering reading a pornographic version of mills n boon, the ladies might have contributed. I am sure the ladies here have portrayed enough maturity to appreciate a twist/metamorphosis of a thread here and there and probably contribute on a light note but when it becomes all descriptive and to some level of detail, a lady is left feeling pretty stripped and the deleted thread was anything else but respectful and was bordering on the obscene..... the more reason you realise the ladies kept a distance from it...
And i am not sure what you mean by "recognizing us".
