Why Was That Deleted?

Re: Men vs. Women post of a few minutes ago.

This was generating a huge response, which seems to indicate that it was an important topic.

Why isn't the reasoning for deletions made clear so that we know the ground rules better and can try and persuade the moderators when they seem to error?

I posted a thread once and then when I went to read the replies I found out it had been deleted. *shrug*

[Rebelbase]

Do you have your tickets yet?

[Tennessee_Bob]

In other words, he's a politician.

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

It was deleted, but then again you already know that.

[happytobealive]

It was not my thread, but thanks for the support.

[Bandolier]

Bump for REAL butter. The only way to eat popcorn.

[Tennessee_Bob]

It was deleted, but then again you already know that.

Oh - then you're talking about the misogyny on the thread that YOU started, not the "marriage strike" thread.

Seemed to me that your thread started with a whole litany of misandry. But hey, I guess misandry is ok, right?

[cake_crumb]

This is the WEIRDEST thread I've ever been on. It's also INTERESTING in a bizarre sort of way.....and the irony is that it's really about nothing in particular! If it doesn't get pulled, I bet the replies get into at least the hundreds, if not a thousand...

Is this sort of thing common on Saturday evenings?

But hey, I guess misandry is ok, right?

And it's not "whining" either.. Oh No!

[HairOfTheDog]

Sorry it took so long! - The one on the right has the real butter... the one on the left has some Johnny's on it!

Did we learn why the thread was deleted? - Or do we care?

"misogyny"

Dang, got to go to Webster's now.

I also simply shrug them off when it happens to me (and it happens quite often, especially on the more emotionally-charged topics). There are lots of things to cuss and discuss in the world, and I refuse to cry and hold my breath till I turn blue merely because a thread gets pulled.

[Sabertooth]

Of course, if you want to consider that misogyny, then you also need to admit that there is quite a bit of misandry going on there as well.

"Miss Andrea" search results...

Anyway Welcome to FR

[Skooz]

Was that the thread where I elected you Judge?

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

It was nothing of the sort and you know it. It was asking men, like YOU, to respect the women of this forum. It was asking to appreciate the women of this forum for their postive qualities. I posted 12 threads that I located in 5 minutes that bashed women, so I was not without factual evidence of a big problem on FR.

You fail to recognize that.

It was not a man bashing thread and I was very careful to make that perfectly clear to even the minimally educated among us.

I know you have a beef with me, that's why I never post to you. Try to show me the same respect.

[RedBloodedAmerican]

I will see your Andrea and raise you one Anna.
