New forum

[jumpnbunny 0]

There is a forum for women and one for skydivers with disabilities, how does everyone feel about a forum for gay and lesbian jumpers.

[diablopilot 2]

Personaly I fail to see how someone's sexualy orientation affects their ability to skydive, but then I think the fractioning of the forums is a bad thing to begin with.

I agree. I don't even see a lot of point to the women's forum. Most of the threads in there are about relationship failures anyway.

Or a forum for skydivers with alligators, 16 foot python snakes, iguanas and ferrets as pets... I've seen 'em all... The guy with the snake would bring it to the DZ in a large dog carrier cage. Damn thing weighed over 100 lbs. They had to put the DZO's Daschund dog in the office whenever he pulled the snake out of the cage for display, and if you wanted to pet it, you had better be sure you removed any smell of a dog or cat, especially if the snake hadn't eaten in a while!

Getting a little silly there.

I don't see how being Gay could affect your ability to skydive or factor into any aspects of skydiving.

A womens forum? Well jumping while pregnant, how different female medications might influence a skydive, rigs that fit females better, jumpsuits that fit females better...Ect I can see it.

Disabilities...I can easily see how that could effect a skydive and how it could be a resource to help others with the same problems.

But being Gay should in no way effect a skydive. There might be a use in dealing with bias on a DZ, but that same bias is in EVERTHING, not just at a DZ. So it is not very skydive related.

Of course some on here will just assume I am "Gay bashing".

And Speaker's Corner . . . because we all know conservatives skydive differently than liberals . . . oh, wait, that can't be right.

It's called "community" for a reason . . . maybe they're just looking for someone to identify with. I don't think it needs to be skydiving related. Now, I'm also not saying it's a good idea. That would be 100% up to HH.

I actually think that is one of the most respectful posts you have ever made.

Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.

You're so gay.

Ok.. this is a very blatant piece of Bonfire-Fluff Brains I'm disapointed in you.

If there is going to be a forum for gays and lesbians then there needs to be a forum for heterosexuals.
Also one for Bisexuals.
Also one for bestiality.
also one for pedophiles.

Am I leaving anyone out?

If only those items were the real meat of the Women's Forum, I might go in there a look more often. But since it's turned into a "Relationship" forum, I stay away from it.

Well lets look at some numbers.

TB: 43790 threads, 839152 posts.
SC: 1637 threads, 47817 posts.
WO:1145 threads, 23130 posts.
Dis: 55, threads, 544 posts.

More people hang out and talk BS...Normal.

A few talk politics, but talk alot about it...Again normal

Women have "issues" they need to talk about...Normal

Only 55 Threads about disabilities, and only 544 posts. Well there are few skydivers that have a disability.

I bet there are fewer skydivers that are gay and willing to talk about it, than people with disabilities.

Besides most Gay threads will most likely end up in SC anyway.

So, it would not have enough traffic to warrent it, and many posts would get moved to an already existing forum.

Skydivers with Disabilities barely warrents the seperate forum, except the information is critical, topical to this forum, and hard to find.

Edit to add...SC is needed as a dumping ground for topics that are "hot" and not appropriate for TB.

So while liberals and conservatives don't NEED a seperate forum to discuss hot topics, it allows for less clutter in TB, and a way for those who don't care to get involve a way to avoid it.

And that is the reason I don't think it's a good idea/think it's unnecessary. So we agree on that.

How about one for sadomasochistic, necrophiliacs into bestiality?

Nah. That would just be beating a dead horse.
