you seem to think you are incredibly knowledgeable about what people think and wise about what people should do.....
Your sarcasm here is actually well-founded, and has made me pause to consider the truth in it.
you also seem to have very entrenched ideas of what a man and a woman are that is quite sexist in itself....
Quite entrenched ideas. You think so? In that case, you have just joined everyone on this forum with agreeing that one point.
and possibly even homophobic.
This is actually ridiculous. It is a stretch that would amaze even The Brotherhood of Rubberband Lovers. They have an office next to the OTP Lovers. -

Scott: Well as I said I am not taking responsibility for other people's failings; even less so if they respond to a thread without reading it let alone to just a thread title. I'm not going to tip toe around in case I set what you regard as a bad example. As I pointed out the threads under discussion are *one *way of making a point; out of all the threads I have started they are a very small percentage. The "if we all" argument can be applied to any point: if we all stuck only to discussing bikes this place would be as dull as ditch water, for example.
The point is I think this forum is a pretty great place as I have pointed out often; I don't share your overall view of it and clearly some of the stuff I most enjoy is stuff you most dislike. That's fine; I'm happy with the example I set as I am sure you are happy with the one you set. How anyone else responds to our respective contributions is their business. -

This is not something I am going to be able to say well, in fact in the past I've tried to express it and have ended up deleting my post before I even bother to send it.
Thank you.
Thank you all for having the balls to at least think about sexism. To even be willing to discuss it. To decided for yourselves where the line is, even if it isn't in the same place that my line is.
You are all intellegent people, and regardless of whether or not I agree with you, thank you for making this a real debate.

I can see me being forced to cycle to Brixton to buy a sprocket or something.....
As for the debate, I'm glad fred brought it up, and that VB acknowledged it. I may have been on a loser, but at least it got back on track....so to speak.

I've not noticed any overt sexism, but then I'm probably so far above it, and most of you, I can't see what's going on down there

Lil, I don't think you understood my meaning.
I meant that everyone on this forum would agree.......that I have entrenched views / ideas.
I don't sit on the fence. I have a viewpoint, and right or wrong, I express it, and sometimes strongly.
I leave others to point me back in the right direction if I have missed something. -

Again, derailing a thread that needed some serious consideration.
Is everything in the world meant to be funny?
shakes head at pointlessness of serious topics to the inane

In fact (though I expect no suitable answer), here's a question:
How does sexism affect men? And even more pointedly, How does sexism affect men on Lfgss?
If it doesn't appear to (I don't know, but maybe someone will tell me), then the title of this thread....."sexist"..... doesn't apply so much to men then. So if it might just apply to women, why is it that no women have tried to derail this thread?
There's been disagreement, but no derailment. I may be an "entrenched" kind of person, but I'm not blind.
