Default Women Only Thread?

Would there be any support for a women only thread here and if so would it be allowed?

I for one am fed up with the male dominated threads which invariably turn into pixxing contests.

Women deal with reality and experience and are not interested in the constant posting of Wiki stuff.

What about couples who share? How would we know which one is contributing

I'm not keen on the idea, sorry. I never like the idea of 'women only' anything, any more than I like any other kind of exclusivity, just seems like a kind of apartheid.

If I get fed up with the direction some threads are taking, I just stop reading -bit like the 'off' button on your telly!

Same here.

I have had to choose from a male or female crowd I would most likely choose the men. My experience of woman in groups is either down right silly or bitchy.


Edit to reply last post. Seems a non starter as there are many couples on here.

Rosemary and Graham seem to manage quite well with their individual posts.

Would all the arguments sync to one week in each month?

Sometimes I see names on the bottom of a post sometimes not. Would seem to me that if a womens only place was to be considered they would need to allow only single membership and even then who knows for sure who is a man and who is woman. I could have ticked the woman box but be male ? some users are not identified as either. Neigh on impossible to have a womens only place.

Just think how nice it would be to try something new and find out for ourselves

Sorry not allowed, sexual discrimination and all that.

Anyway what's the point, first off you ladies can't keep anything to yourselves for very long and secondly there would likely be a few dodgy guys reinventing themselves and sticking their oars in.

There could be a new forum created where women only threads were posted.

It could be called "The Kitchen"

Thank you.

I am not against a women only thread but just know that the men will interupt the flow as per usual. Like you I am fed up with every thread becoming a bullying contest between the usual argumentative males. If I remember rightly something similar to this was tried a while ago and it became targeted so got lost in the sands of time.
