This thread was originally about why females might not feel comfortable participating in this forum due to the vulgar and sexist comments. It stayed on track longer than I thought it would, but the petty comments about winning arguments and other crap that has little or nothing to do with the subject, have pulled it way off topic.

Some of the comments by the females in this thread were spot on, particularly by trigger. I do hope that more females post in the future and can look beyond the juvenile attitudes and offensive comments to ask questions and share their knowledge.

I agree with the mods in letting this thread play itself out. No harm done and maybe a few will think before they type. Then again, this is BF, not too likely.
