you complained about a cartoon character running, with tits bouncing?

that's what tits do when ladies run, what will you do if you see a lady jogger in the street, have her arrested?

Oh my God! What is going on? I have been away ages (career break I mainly post on other people's time!!) But I have to say I've been having a little catch up and am horrified at all of this. Seems like pettiness has taken over and a lot of the great people have got fed up with it all or been banned for ridiculous reasons. Cartoon boobs? Are they serious? The forum won't last long if things carry on this way.

As a recovering alcoholic I find your signature more offensive than Flutters av.

Ive stayed out of this until now.

Fuzzy Duck I dont know you, but are you really serious that the cartoon was offensive?

You see what worries me about this forum, is that we have to modify what we say for children.

I think there are enough forums for kids and kids alone and I dont feel that parts BE suitable for kids.

My stories or some of them, are very rude and I dont want to or will not, modify my behaviour for children.

Where do we draw the line in what we post? What is acceptable for one person may offend someone elses because their kid reads it.

If the avatar was of someones genitals then fine but it wasnt.

If this forum was based and centred in an Islamic country, then fine. But its not.

An avatar is a personal choice. Some might get offended at beautiful sexy women used as avatars.

One member has an avatar of a woman in a catsuit with a whip. Ive had sexy avatar pictures before.

In photo post, anything goes, children probably go in there too.

I know this site has rules and regulations with regards to sexual innuendo, pictures and the deliberate action of offending people.

But I think it is a sad day that we have to censor what we post purely for the kids.

And in the great scheme of things, bouncing breasts as an avatar, is not really offensive is it.

Before anyone calls me racist or insensitive to religious and cultural beliefs, don't. My husband is an Arab, doesnt practice his religion and has a healthy opinion and beliefs on nudity and the body mother nature gave us.

Also a good guideline for what you let your children see and not see, if it offends you, then don't let your kids see it.

But whilst I will not go out of my way to upset anyone and try not to offend people, I resent the fact that my writing could be censored.

At last some one with some sense... totally agree, cant give you karma though.. got to spread it around (doesnt that sound rude...)

One day people with kids, will take responsability for what they see on the internet, by controlling their kids, rather than the rest of the world having to censor itself.. I think its called Parental Control... something sadly lacking..
