    I don't even care if I come across as creepy - I love giving encouragement and support to my male friends!!! I think it really depends on the people you surround yourself with.

    As one of these "guys" I disagree. I get loads of support. I think the main issue is that interactions on this site really are dependent on give and take. I think typically guys interact less on here. There are many reasons for this. It is hard to tell a girl she looks good without it coming off as creepy (especially as a married man). And giving bro love is often just awkward. But for us guys that really do make an effort to comment as much as possible, our friends (male or female) seem to reciprocate that encouragement.

    I try and be as vocal as possible on here and I get just as vocal a response back from both men and women. Doing this motivates me to go the extra step so I have something to contribute to the mass of friends all loosing and talking about what they have lost.

    I appreciate the sentiment.
    :flowerforyou:

    However, I never feel ignored by the women on my FL. I've got the best bunch of cheerleaders anyone could ask for (even if they won't wear the cute little outfits and sport the pom poms like I repeatedly asked for :tongue:)

    I'm guilty of this too :ohwell: I will be more aware of it now though! I think I'm just naturally more inspired by women, since I can see myself in them
