And the reason they can't.....<drum roll>...........is because THEY ARE WOMEN!!!!!!! DING DING DING!!!

That is why it disturbs me. You have rules for behavior dictated by one sex to another...hmm....I wonder if that is one of the things they fight against also:rolleyes:

What are you two rattling on about. This has got nothing to do with women dictating to men. It has everything to do with what a forum on cycling should principally be about.

I get the fact that there are all sorts of things on the forum and they are not all to do with cycling but most of them are. And most of them fall within the bounds of common interest, humour etc and generally offend no one. Things that do offend people generally (but not always) get removed. The not always is more about lack of bandwidth by volunteer admins rather than some agenda, conspiracy or hypocracy etc

The question of what is in and out of bounds is a good one and is constantly under review - as you might expect. It is subjective - there will always be areas of disagreement. If we were really interested in supressing expressin we would delete this and all the associated threads - that's not what any of us are about.

And by the way for the record I have no problem with any of you looking at pictures of attractive women - just not here.

This is off topic (sort of - but not sure there really is a topic :) )
I do have a problem with people banner waving about freedom of speach and censorship. I am not sure this has really got that much to do with either but I get that some of you do not agree. The fact is that freedom is not just about freedom of speach it's about a balance freedom of expression, privacy and the rights of individuals. I am no philosopher or legal expert but I know enough to know it's more complex than just pulling on one lever and ignoring the impact on others. One person's freedom can very easily impact on anothers.

Well if that is the case get busy and get rid of everything which has less to do with cycling than pictures of girls usually with or near bicycles.

These would include but not necessarily be limited to the following.
Your Occupation
Outside Of Here
General Complaint Thread
Cuisine Corner
Free Form/Chaos Thread
What Beer You Drinking?
Learning Languages
Spiderman Thread
Fender Gibson or Other

Consistency is all I ask.

C'mon now....are you trying to make the closing of a thread that had been open for months and apparently bothered 2 people while hundreds enjoyed and had no problem with it reveal a level of hypocrisy amongst our leaders?

I think every member and mod should have to read each post prior to officially being posted, and so long as 2 or more people have a problem with it, well....off with their heads.
