Thanks for the defense, guys (Alcyone & Larry).

You know, I didn't want to say anything, but those couple of comments made were pretty sexist. I agree, many topics go off the subject, so why am I getting criticized? Because I'm a girl?!? That's just ridiculous and unfair. Girls can like cars too, and I have a feeling that if I was a guy, those posts wouldn't have been made. I am very surprised and pretty pissed off.

i dont think it was sexist. theyre saying perhaps peoples attention shifts easily, and being there is a large population of males on this bored, its quite refreshing to see females participate. so generally the focus can change to them. but definitely not due to some imperialistic need to control the topic.

all in good fun.
so check my locker too!

Thank you... that is EXACTLY what I was trying (however apparently failing at) saying. I have no IDEA what was sexist... that is just ludicrous... I even said I was joking. I don't mind when threads go off topic... but it is true that a female will get more attention, especially on a car club. If you deny that, then that is just naive. I'm sorry if I angered anyone, but a bit frustrated that anyone would get defensive/angry over what I said.

I think it is nice to have women on the boards. Provides for another perspective on things... I wish I could find a girl who loved cars as much as I do! BTW, I think stuff is taken a bit too seriously around here sometimes. If everyone looks in depth at EVERYTHING said... what kind of boring, uptight world would we live in?

Earl, your SVXi are pretty darn sharp, too! Put on a tux and hop in the Laguna Blue... and you'll be the sharpest dude around!

Have you named your SVX's yet?

Aaron, first of all, I tried not taking it so seriously, but it's hard to see when someone's joking, especially online. Take a look at how you wrote your post..."If there is a female who gets on the thread, it is bound to end up becoming geared toward her.". Then you follow it up with a joke pointed towards the guys...Obviously, you kinda do feel this way, but there have been plenty of times I've posted and that hasn't happened...

I'm the last girl that would throw around the word "sexist", but your comment did seem that way and I wasn't the only one who thought that.

And I'm not going to blow this up into more than it's become because it's not worth it. I'm just saying, look at how you write things because on the internet anything can be misinterpreted.
