In the interest of balance, I thought you might like to know you're being discussed. We've heard opinion from one side so it's surely only fair that those of you who may be on another have your say:

If it was such a big deal about possible offence caused, dont you think the BikeRadar office staff would have put a stop to it a long time ago? I'm sure the girls on the forum know what the content of the clearly marked threads will be and can avoid looking if they so wish0

I've read some of it, not all, life's too short. I think they're now linking the enjoyment of some semi-naked women with children who are cruel to animals and ending up as serial killers. Oh and maybe the rise in drunken, half naked women in town centres could also be linked to pornography! I was sure it was to do with the cheap and easy availability of alchohol. Who knew?
I can see the point of some of it, especially from a girls/ladies point of view, maybe there are so many Girls In....
Threads that Cake Stop isn't a place where female forum members feel they want to contribute. Perhaps it's time to consolidate all our Girls In... threads into one! That way there is only one thread to be avoided if you are offended by images of the human form, or it will be easier to find for those who claim they find it all rather tacky but secretly pop in and view the images that they so disapprove of.
Personally speaking I do not believe that enjoying looking at images of woman automatically means you have a lower opinon of women. I'm not talking hard core, although the way they are discussing it in Commuting you'd think all the images were. (Or maybe they're just talking about Cleat's girls!!)0 -

Can I suggest an invasion ?
:twisted:
Obviously it would be best started by someone else; as I post so infrequently on the communting forum, any time I do it's seen as inflamatory and trespassing on their forum, and I get a lot of abuse............ can't understand why

Now we get to the truth, Peter was the boy at the front of the school bus nursing a chubby at the thought of what delights lay inside the covers of the cool boys magazine. :oops:
5 lonely years he endured that trip to school never having realised his dream of gaining access to the cool gang on the back seat and their library of erotica.
Well run along now, much like the school bus your not needed here, leave the good people of cakestop to go about their liberal valued lives where norks are embraced(hopefully) as a thing of beauty to be admired and worshipped0 -

Which, I suspect, is why PaulDavid used words such as "was", "endured" and "realised"; all past tense.

Damn, the thread mentioned at the top is locked..... so I'll post here:
Including the 'Girls in..', Susanna Reid', and Crudcatcher threads, 0.33% of posts are about eerm.... well, the content discussed. I have not included in this the 'Men in warm gloves' or 'Cleats Munters..' threads for obvious reasons.
Neither have I bothered to check in the Commuting Chat forum, as that sort of thing obviously doesn't go on in there. (except for the 'guilty pleasure: Women you 'would' but really shouldn't' thread :roll: )
edit: I got the decimal point in the wrong place :oops:Science adjusts it’s beliefs based on what’s observed.

If we suddenly have to go all P.C., what is "MTFU" going to stand for now? Man the Flap Up?
Or is that sexist? Perhaps we should go to to PTFU, Person the Flip Up. Somehow it doesn't sound right. :?Summer - Canyon Ultimate CF SLX 9.0 Team

I've just mentioned to my wife the uproar in the Commuting Chat forum, over the 'Girls in...' threads.
Her response ?
And I quote........
"F*ck off !! are they lesbians ?"
(that was directed an men and women !)
How I laughed !Science adjusts it’s beliefs based on what’s observed.
