Can we have a women only forum please as all this testosterone and arguing and nastiness is doing my head in.
Thank you
Matilda
Matilda, that is really not the problem. People are not good listeners, readers or do many reply to question posed. In this age of the internet many want their vioce to be heard and think their opinion is the only one that counts. There is little common courtesy and many on this web-site love to hijack various threads. You would think that some would be embarassed by their behavior but again if it's on-line they feel they can say almost anything and really not take ownership of it. I do feel sorry for many who ask legitimate questions and are looking for helpful info and receive neither. On the other hand some people tell their story and open themselves up to ridicul and criticism because the info they are telling us makes little sense. If you are going to ask help for a personal problem than you are opening yourself up to all those who want to pile on. Simply, it's a two way street but many want it only one way. I think that if the moderators made more of an effort to keep responders on point this macho nastiness would be minimized. It's a long day for some in the DR and they have nothing but time on their hands so consequently this is the way the conversation evolves. Good luck trying to change hearts and minds.
