No Mens Discussion?

Post Reply New Topic

How come men don't have their own discussions between each other as there can be a topic that men can be uncomfortable with women talking about?

You may want to take a look at how many times this has been brought up already over the years. If it ain't happened yet, it ain't likely it's ever going to.

Isn't it sexist though?
Probably because that the only thing we have to talk about is women which isn't true. What about erectile disfunctions and problems with the genitals after sex? Issues with condoms giving a rash? Strain on the sack? See my point even if some I did make up.

Wrong Planet is a private forum, and there are no laws that say the owners must provide x, y, or z.

Primarily Wrong Planet is an asperger's support site, and I think it fulfils that remit quite well. It is not Ball Strain Sufferers Anonymous (BSSA for short)

If you really need to discuss ball strain, and you are not comfortable using the unisex adult autism discussion section, then I'm sure there are resources around that you can use. If it's serious, then perhaps you need a doctor's examination and not an internet discussion.

I would say that it is slightly unfair, but not to the extent that it hurts anyone in any significant way.

An entire men's forum sprang up once in response to the lack of dedicated men's space here. It seems to have died for lack of interest, or perhaps lack of necessity.

I set one up a while ago in response to people like you complaining about the lack of one here on WP. Guess how many of them ended up joining the forum and actually participating in it. Only 1%. The ones who did participate ended up being those who never complained.

It seems people here only like to argue for the sake of argument and nothing more.

I'm actually disappointed to here that, but hope you've developed a nice community anyway.

And everything else I could post on the topic ... said many times in the other threads.

Okay then, thread delete since nothing ventured or gained.
1%, Dang, that is lame.

There's nothing wrong with asking. There's just a history of this issue cropping up with a regularity which can be wearing for folks who've been around a while. Doesn't seem like Alex has been moved to reinstate the men's forum. Though he has hinted at a coming forum upgrade, so who knows what may come along?

Thanks. I was disappointed, too, but I'm over it now. It could've worked if it wasn't just one hand clapping.

Tell me about it. Some of them were ferociously fighting for it. Only Boo and nick (as far as I know) were the guys who inquired about a lack of men's forum here and actually participated in the forum I set up. The rest were jokers.

Don't feel too bad, the reason that the full Men's Forum (just like the Women's Forum) was deconstructed in the first place was mostly because of one hand fwapping
