ILuvParis,
I'm glad you took the time to contribute your opinion. Who knew a simple suggestion would generate this much discussion? Well, I guess I should have.
Anyway, while I appreciate and agree with most of what you said, one comment seems out of place to me. I am left wondering why this forum, versus ANY other forum on FlyerTalk, would be more likely to contain postings of a sexual nature?
You didn't say it would be more likely, but you brought this up, I assume, because you anticipate sexual content of some sort.
I don't.
Maybe you meant to say "sexuality"?
Either way, I give people on both sides plenty of credit: While there are bad apples in every bunch, the overwhelming majority of FTers will be as great as they have been. The overwhelming majority of FTers who happen to be gay or lesbian will be equally responsible and capable of keeping it a cool, fun, informative forum.
Of course, those are just my opinions. What the hell do I know?
