Muenkel 0 #26 August 4, 2003 Actually my answer to your question is in the post above the one you just posted. It's just my opinion. I think the debate did get heated and lines were passed on both sides. It was a very emotional issue. I personally was surprised the thread was not locked sooner, but I do understand the shortage of mods. Hell, I recently got banned for something much tamer than what was being said there.

sinker 0 #27 August 4, 2003 early in the thread, I actually voiced my discomfort about it continuing in the women's forum and suggested we take it elsewhere. however, it didn't happen. Now I know it was likely due to lack of moderators. at the time I didn't know that and, since the thread continued, I jumped back in... -the artist formerly known as sinker Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 37 #28 August 4, 2003 QuoteIt probably would have been smarter if one of the moderators moved the thread to talk back early on, since it was a discussion that involved both women and men. The thread was intentionally kept in the Women's Forum on the hopes that the women could discuss this women's issue without the men interfering.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sinker 0 #32 August 4, 2003 see, that's just the problem.... you see it as a WOMEN'S issue, b/c WOMEN get abortions. But it is a HUMAN issue... not just a woman's issue. Unless you forget, that when a a woman get's pregnant, there is a FATHER involved... again, to reiterate my point in my thread above, I suggested the thread be moved and it didn't get moved... if I was wrong to continue when others were also posting (men, not women), then I accept that. But it is completely WRONG of you to decide that such matters should only be kept in a women's forum.

THAT my dear is how you are showing your bias, which you deny having. Oh, I'm totally bised that the threads in the Women's Forum should be mostly controlled by the women. It would be nice, for once, for women to be able to discuss things without men throwing their 2 cents in. I never, ever said you couldn't have a discussion about abortion in Talk Back. Go ahead and start it now if you want to. I don't care as long as you follow the rules! And, Sinker, that's the second time today that you've been condescending to me by calling me a name other than my own.

Zenister 0 #40 August 4, 2003 I'll add my apology to sinker's. I think its pretty clear where we each stand on the issue, and despite the tone and rhetoric, nothing in the discussion should have been taken personally. I believe we are both just opinionated bastages who share a joy in debate on opposing sides of a very emotionally charged issue, it wasnt the first time we've gone round about controversial issues, nor do i expect it to be the last. we did however overstay our welcome and not acknowledge the voices quieter than our own bellowing. again, sincere apologies for letting my passions (and glee in arguing) over take my courtesy. I should have left with the simple comment i made early on and not stuck my .02 in as far as i did..____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
