Pics of the day Oct 10, 06.

Would adding  "BIKINI Pic of the Day" to the subject line help you avoid the images you'd rather not see?

But I am trying to show pictures of hot tubs. Is it my fault that pretty women keep getting into them?

Less talk....more pics

Got ya. But there can only be one pic of the day per day. So I believe it's my turn Monday.

Unless you change the title to "Pics" of the day.

You know the saying "Too much of a good thing".

Any females here feel offended by this constant stream of semi-degrading photos of unrealistic bimbos?

Actually, as a female, I'm mostly amused by the silliness of most of the pictures and comments.

But since you asked, I did wince a bit at the one the other day where a customer's photo was posted and then commented on in a way that I felt was over the line. Not sure I'd want to be in her situation.

I think that what a lot of guys don't "get" is that while they may mean to be "flattering," or "just have fun," being the object of such comments can sometimes be uncomfortable. Women (or men) who pose, knowing their photo will be public and subject to comment - whatever anyone may think of that - have less reason to complain than someone who is simply going about the business of life.

As in most situations, context plays a role. If we were on a different kind of forum, my response might be different.

FWIW everybody . . .

Umm....nope, I'm not familiar with that one.

Silent,

That was a lucid, well thought out, polite response that made several valid points.


We'll have none of that here.

Ha!!

I'm all out.  That was my "thought of the day".  I'm spent 'til tomorrow.

I don't see why the pic-o-whatever-day cannot go on the BS page. Isn't that really the better place for them? They'd be just as accessable, and it would make the main forum page a little more credible as a place to get INFORMATION, especially for those coming here for the first time. I accept that it is inevitable that those threads will be here and I'm not going to debate the degredation of women or the use of the term "bimbo" - that is a waste of time. But "A place to ask questions and get answers about hot tubs" seems like it should be just that, and "Somewhat or barely Hot tub related" seems like a better place for eye candy, soft porn, smut- whatever it is to you.

How come there was never such an issue with this when Term was posting these? Are you guys/gals afraid to get shot?

It is certainly not you. I have the same opinion with Term's, or anyone's photos. I appologize if you took it personally. You happened to start a debate that I chimed in on, and perhaps those of us objecting just reached a threashold of irritation.

[cooltoy2000]

I'll leave that call up to the mods.

I hear a good long soak is great for irritation, unless the water chemistry is off.

I never take anything said on a forum personal. Only people close to me can upset me since I love them. I always find it amusing when people get all upset over things said in a forum. Since only my friends a family know who I really am, only they really count.
