*sigh*

A short trip to the doctor and my thread turns into WWIII
Cant I leave you kids alone for a second? :
And where have you hidden the babysitter I left?? :o :o :o

Folks, a lot has been said here and I have my own strong opinions on this too.
But not tonight (day to you Americans)
Im sick, and not into up to this at the moment.
I am locking this thread for now.
I request that you do not take it elsewhere for now,
rather, use the time to cool off,
take a step back,
and everyone take a few minutes to try think of the other side.

In the meantime, youre welcome to cold 7up in the fridge, or tea in the urn!

jst checking..its not REALLY lockd..

Yes, I hold the records and Rage is right. Trying, letakain or habib have never once acted inappropriately.

But still, maybe others will get the wrong message... and whatever (see what I wrote above)...

It can't hurt to try a little less IGLH (Inter-Gender-Light-Headedness).

Ok, now that I got my last word in, I can lock this thread (upon Mom's request)...

Ah yes... It's fun to be guard sometimes. (where's that "evil laugh" link?)

:D

WOW SE...

I understand your concern, but I think that in reality your accusations are unwarranted. Is there a possibility that men and women could make inappropriate use of this site? Of course. That's why PMs are blocked for the women, and that's why we don't share email addresses; private chatting through email or instant message can get flirty very quickly, but I have never seen ANY flirting on this forum. When I post pictures of seals jumping through hoops that's considered flirting? What about when I tell a female member to "keep up the good work"? Is that considered flirting?
There have been times when the line came close to being crossed, and when that happened the mods and 7up and guard all stepped in quickly and redrew the line clearly for everyone. I think the females here are VERY careful not to post anything specific related to their struggles because they understand that it could easily be triggering for some of the men here. And for that I will tell all of them to "keep up the good work!"
SE, you need to understand that the people you are talking to are REAL people with REAL feelings, and you are stepping on those feelings when you throw out accusations the way you just did.
As far as frumkeit goes, this sort of surprises me. I get emails saying a post was reported because it has the word "crap" in it and it might "turn off some of the frum people here." What kind of messed up reasoning is this?? I don't understand this holier-than-thou attitude. I can watch porn all day, but I'm not going to use this site for help because someone used the word "crap" or because a boy and a girl can post harmless messages to each other in their threads, and I'm too frum to tolerate that. Give me a break.
I hope I haven't offended anyone here. SE, I know you mean well, but I think you should consider your words more carefully next time.
Ano

Since the forum split, I rarely read the mens threads.
PLease use this spot to let me know if there is something I should be seeing.
Perhaps an insight I can draw the girls attention to, or a reference to 7up which needs dealing with etc.

Thanks guys

Just knowing that you're here helps...

Thanks SB
I am here, and not going anywhere iyH.

7UP,
A comment or two on Yechida's thread would be wonderful.
Also, the E"N sometimes does not take the stuff sitting down, and has a question or rebuttal... if they do, could you pass it along?

FYI, R' Wolfson once mentioned that the best questions/comments on his shalosh sheudas toirah (which are VERY deep) come from the E'N, sent through their husbands...

Thanks Kutan.

I transfered some of YECHIDAs posts yesterday just in case the girls hadnt seen them. My guess is that its still one of their favorite threads to visit!

I will tell them that they have permission to remain argumentive when needed! Something tells me we may open up a pandoras box though! :D

I'll take the stings...worth it! ;D

wow when did this thread get unlocked?? All the goodies come out when i leave!! :'( :'( :-\ :-\ :-[ :-[

Teach you to leave next time!
