ORIGINAL: LadyPact
For the purpose of this discussion, I am going to roughly define a drive by as the following:
A random post by those who we are not very familiar with on this board who wants to discuss his kinks/wants/sexual desires with the expectation that we will automatically respond even though we don't know him. Also known as wanker posts or some other term where the focus is on what turns on the originator of the thread. Perhaps falling into the "how many of you are into X kink activity" that is discouraged in the Frequently Asked Question section.
Using that rough definition, would you post about your kinks, turn-ons, or sexual desires more if there were fewer drive by posts in this section?
In My opinion, I think more of us would. I tend to believe that women talk more openly about the topics of our desires when we feel it is a safe environment to do so. We are more likely to be open about our thoughts when we are in a situation that we know our comments are not going to be exploited in some way. For example, there are some of us that will have a night out with just the gals where we'll talk about some thought or idea that turns us on, but we might not discuss the subject if there is someone that we don't know all that well or if we're in mixed company.
After being a member of this forum for a few years, I think back on some of the threads that we have had in the past on a variety of subjects. I do notice that fewer of us talk about our kinks, etc now than what we used to. Is it the drive by type of threads that have played a part in that change? Do you think it is something else? Is it simply because some of the forum regulars that we used to have are no longer here and the ones that we have now aren't interested in more kink centered discussions? I'd like to hear your thoughts on this.
A whine by any other name is still a whine.
