    We are all familiar with the plethora of threads dealing with "TOM" issues and other female reproductive system issues. Yet, it seems that every thread that relates to anything dealing with male-specific anatomy is shut down as a CG violation. Why the double standard?
    You answered your own question!

    No I didn't.
    Yes you did!:happy:

    I don't think there is one. A discussion of TOM is pretty unsexy unless you read something more into it. Women usually don't talk about *kitten* and TOM in the same paragraph, maybe occasionally. If men want to talk about itching, lumps, and chafing, just avoid bringing any sexual commentary into it.

    I think it is a double standard. But really, periods aren't very sexy at all, except when I lose six pounds at the end of one. :laugh:

    My question was "Why the double standard?"

    Here's your OP. You identified an "effect", mens' issues get shut down while women's issues don't, as often. Then you identified the "cause", due to CG violation. You then proceeded to ask the wrong question, why the double standard. They are both subject to the same standards, the CG's.
    Whierd, I like you. :flowerforyou: You're funny! Maybe you're emotional because it's your TOM, and everything just seems blown out of proportion. It happens:wink:

    I always thought that guys didn't post about chafing and other issues because they're more tastefully reserved than women often are.

    You are focusing solely on one issue I presented. Chaffing is unsexy, as are erections while working out, and hitting your genitals during deadlifting, shrugging, etc.

    Not due to the CGs, but rather as an interpretation of the CGs. One could argue that TOM threads are Inappropriate/Vulgar, which are the reasons used to shut down male issues. (Side note, I would not argue this as it is a normal ocurrance in the life of a woman, just playing Devil's Advocate).

    And thank you!! Not currently my Manstration time, but I appreciate the concern. :tongue:

    Most posters here cannot be described as tasteful or classy. (I love you all.)

    My point was that if you want to talk about those things, with the possible exception of erections, you probably can, unless people make crude comments part of the thread. (Not that I don't snicker at crude comments - I do - but I don't really want the site to be a free-for-all).

    Except you oftentimes really cannot. I have seen threads of everything I described locked. In any thread there will be crude humor, just the nature of most people.

    I find the mods overzealous at times, and sometimes I can't fathom the objection. I wouldn't be surprised if it depends on what someone decides to report. On Facebook, for example, pictures of shirtless men seem to be relentlessly censored, while bare female breasts make it into my feed all all the time. I'm certainly not reporting the shirtless guys, but some people clearly are.

    If you're trying to make a baby, I don't recommend boiling your baby makers.

    So good birth control if needed, check.

    It's the womenz fault.

    Because it always is.

    But also because we can't hear talk about the anatomy and not comment on it in a sexual way.

    Sorry. :flowerforyou:
