Re: citanul cleaning bbv/b4l discussion/rants
I'm not really on either side of this argument, but I'd like to remind everyone that there is absolutely nothing stopping any one of us from starting our own little forum where "n***a" and "g**y" are allowed to be used ad nauseum.
There is obviously a demand for such a forum, so... 1) Start forum with a little more freedom than BBV 2) ????? 3) Profit. Supply and demand, baby. |

Calling a friend of yours 'retarded' is offensive? Or are you talking about going up to someone who is mentally handicapped and calling him a retard? |
Re: citanul cleaning bbv/b4l discussion/rants
"You play poker like a woman."
"Big deal you lost the hand, don't cry like a little girl." etc. Many feminist types would take ALOT of offense to these types of remarks, yet the new policy has no mention of misogonistic/woman bashing in it. So I would take it these things are still allowed? Why is it ok to genuinely belittle a group that constitutes 50%+ of the population but not ok to FAKE belittle much smaller groups? (I'm not a feminist nut, quite the opposite, I just use this as an example to point out the foolishness of arbitrarily banning certain "offensive" things) |

Re: citanul cleaning bbv/b4l discussion/rants
To be fair, there are a lot more mentally handicapped folks posting here than there are women.
