Well, I'll get straight to the point. In the last month, there has been an overflow of sexist threads in the Chatterbox section.

Personally, I find them annoying and disturbing also as it's sick to just try to prove superiority over your opposite gender or insult the other.

It's disgusting (equally as offending as racials slurs are in my view). I mean, every person has a different character, life and personality and generalizing one/some particular cases into a common/global truth is fake, unnecessary and even morbid.

One or two jokes on your opposite gender is natural and of good friendly tease. However, those threads are just igniting real *** flame wars on cheap grounds.

For me, these threads should be banned! Agree or Not?

I agree it's stupid and never ending. Some may even see it as offensive and take it the wrong way, even if it were a joke. Though I doubt they will be banned :shrug:

There's this thing called freedom of speech, and freedom of expression. Go read it. Why do you think KKK still exist?

Still, it's of bad taste and based on fake grounds. NB remains a family forum after all and thus, these kind of sick discussions should just stop coming up.

Also, these freedom of expression that they're doing from their poor knowledge or personal problems are only decreeing a *** flame war.

May I remind you that as per the Global Rules, personal problems threads are also considered as spam.

---

Personal Problems Threads: If you have a problem with a fellow member you should solve it by using an instant messenger or, if that is not possible, through visitor and private messages. There is no reason for all members to take part in your problems.

---

And this is the point. Not only is it a fake discussion that should have been done privately but this thread is just creating *** flame wars with those threads and thus, should be banned according to me.

Agreed. It's annoying, but I don't really care what happens to them. I support the idea of lessening them though.


All they contain are agruments, but Freedom of speech does play a role even if it's annoying.

As long as it's not in direct violation of forum rules, everyone has the freedom of expression in the chatterbox and if you personally see anything that you think is in violation of any of the rules please report it.
