Re: A Short, Polite Message To All The Hetero Men Of This Forum!
It's been heartening to see so many people being so accepting of my initial post here.
As a newbie, I was actually worried, that people would get all -pardon the phrase - pissy and/or dickish about it! So, I'm really chuffed that thus far, no one's complained or accused me of being sexist, bigoted, etc, etc.
Thank You everyone.
For those who wanted to know why I posted it, there are two reasons:
1) I noticed that several new ladies appeared to have joined over the past month, and were introducing themselves on the Forum. Sadly, when looking at their profile pages, I noticed several had messages from men who were wanting "more information". Jeez!
2) On a well-known balloon-fetish-content Facebook page, produced and run by a lady into our fetish, one of the men decided to post the comment "Nice tits"!
When I asked him to be politer, he replied in Spanish, with a message telling me that if I didn't like what he posted, I could go screw myself. (Actually, he used far more grotesque language than that, but I'm sure you get my drift!)
That message, my comment, and his response to my comment, still remains on the Facebook page, for everyone to see, and no one seems to care that he's written what he has about the lady in question.
Thus, I posted what I did, as a polite remainder to all the men. I know most men AREN'T (I hope) like this, but I still think it needs to be reiterated nonetheless.
Cheers, everyone!
