  • spotted isn't about the attractiveness or otherwise of who you spot, thats subjective from your part and has no bearing on what they look like to the rest of us, you could have just said, girl on x bike at x road at x time, describe distinguishing features of bike and them and leave it at that, rather than what you said below.

    which in the great scheme of things is a pretty poor description of the woman and the bike.

    but hey ho, you live and learn.

    Hmmmm. I know that certain people on this here forum are against the posting of descriptions such as; pretty girl, gorgeous lady, voluptuous woman etc. But I for one just don't bloody get it. I don't post such things because I am aware that there are people who wouldn't appreciate it (but for this reason I do feel a bit chastised).

    I personally would love it if someone wrote a post in which I was spotted, and described as; fit, sexy, gorgeous etc.

    I hold the view that people who don't like it should just ignore it (though I don't really understand why they don't like it, as I don't believe it to be a sexist or derogatory thing), but that is because I am on one side of the fence and they are on the other, and would obviously prefer that such things simply weren't posted.

    I think Corny's point that a physical description doesn't add to the "spot'', isn't really accurate. People will say things like; 'saw a bloke wearing ridiculous skinny jeans and an awful haircut..." without batting an eye, or being told off for it.

    I think that people need to lighten up, and stop trying to stop people posting what they want. If it isn't offensive, sexist, racist, derogatory, or anything else nasty - I don't see the problem.

    And for what it's worth, my pretty, sexy, gorgeous girlfriend agrees with me! :)
