Why does mentioning another dot com on FT jeopardize the non profit status of FT?

I regularly mention FT on other Dot com forums so it’s only fair that I mention other dot coms (not include links) on FT. On “Miracle on 34th Street,” Macy’s Kris Kringle recommended Gimbals when the kid’s requested toy was not available at Macys.

I don't think it does. I like women but I OPPOSE their presence on this site. One of the reasons I like this site is that it is for men only. I can pretty much say whatever I want. I don't have to walk on eggshells so I don't offend someone and I can talk comfortably about sex, anatomy, etc. when I would never talk about these things with women present. If it changes, let me know so I can clean out my locker before making any more posts that may be read by the ladies.

Paul asked me not to post the site address publicly, citing concerns about risk to FrankTalk's non-profit status. I comply.

As far as offending women, I would not worry about that. Anyone on this site should be expectng a wider range of opinions and facts than would be heard at your average cocktail party.

Anything I say about myself or my opinions, I own. If I embarrass myself by my feelings, that is another matter. If they ever require apologies or re-thinking, I do.

There's a lot to be said on the subject. I could not resist.

There are some thoughts men have that a man might need to share with other men that no woman should ever know.

and vice-versa, I suppose.

I wish it weren't so. But there it is.

On the other hand, if a woman comes into "Men's Territory", she should expect no quarter.

On the other, other hand, there is a lot of information that one gender knows which the other has no clue about but such information shared would benefit all.

On a different other hand, it can be risky, fearful and even painful to share that information, especially with the opposite sex.

It's a dilemma.

You also have to consider that many men here, especially younger men, are going to have to find partners after their treatment for erectile dysfunction. For us it's a big fear as to what concerns potential partners may have, what they would think about implants and what the best approach would be for us to succeed. No better source than women themselves. Especially those who have a partner who overcame, or currently has, erectile dysfunction. It's just guess work otherwise. The blind leading the blind.

If you notice, the men who object to having female voices on here tend to be older with partners already, they got their's and don't consider those starting out. Or they are gay and thus have no interest in women taking up space.

... tend to be older with partners already, they got their's and don't consider those starting out

One should always take great care in painting with a broad brush.

[LeRoastBeef]

Tend being the operative word here. A very strong trend which is clearly evident.

A broad brush with nuance I would argue, one with some bristles removed. But, justly, very few.

Hahahahahaha SHOTS FIRED indeed. Glorious.

I don't particularly care either way on this issue. My wife will occasionally sit down next to me and scroll topics. She takes note of topic titles. Sometimes she will click through a few, read a little, and check out. She will ask here and there to read something I wrote/asked/shared. In truth, her infrequent look at FT and/or my own posts here rarely generates much of any substantial discussion between us. I think it tends not to provoke all that much because she and I are just dead ass honest with one another. Like...bluntly, openly transparent. So, sure, she has the occasional curiosity, but there does not seem to be particular substance or surprise for her.

Having said that, it's kind of curious to me that one of the reasons stated here to exclude women was the thinking that in doing so we are keeping this place safe for guys to talk as guys do and as guys might want to talk, not needing to walk on eggshells worried what will the women think, etc.

But this is the internet. The absolute definition of anonymity. Why would an effectively anonymous male poster here be even remotely influenced or care in the least about the perception or feeling or response of an entirely random, unknown, equally anonymous female? I don't get that.
