+ 5 A lot of ladies in here lately........
Ok fellas overall I think we do a good job in making the females feel welcome here just a couple things that I have noticed and seen lately that I would like to bring up. with the influx of new female members lately and the ones that's been around a while I think sometimes we over look the fact there ladies present and we as a group (even me ) sometimes get pretty raunchy not realizing there in the thread trying to contribute. its not ok to say something to them or in front of them that you would not feel comfortable saying in front of your mother or grandmother. they should be treated with the upmost respect and not make them feel uncomfortable here. if by chance you do say something outta line you need to apologize for it they will understand that shit happenes just don't make a habit of it. lets make them feel welcome and accepted because there a lot of them that are way more smarter than some of the guys on here dishing out advice.

Good post and thank you for it! I do have thick skin so not much bothers me, but it's still nice to be treated like a lady
Playful banter is always fun, but man or woman we should try to play nice. I'm new here, so still trying to find my way around but had to comment on this one.
I missed you somehow?..... but welcome to eroids
AnonThis is a nice sentiment. I've rarely had to call someone out for being a dick- and when I have, it's almost always followed by an apology. It's also important for the women to step up and call someone out if they feel offended. What one woman may view as playful banter, another may view as offensive.... Sometimes it's hard for others to tell until we draw a line. As long as things are said in the proper context, and apologies are issued for speaking out of turn, I'm all good.
True. This has always been hard for me even online lol I'm not a very confrontational person and my typical reaction is to just kind of shut down. It's odd. But on here when I have had a problem I have contacted a MOD. In a perfect world I would stand up for myself, it's something I need to work on.
Still they should still treat u as a lady regardless !!!
AnonYes. 100% agreed.
My mother is Italian. You learn to be very respectful to women when you have an Italian woman in your life. Or else!!!!!!
jzagGreat post! I'll be honest, I've had a pretty hard time dealing with some of the comments made to my wife on here. It's not something I'm used to seeing or hearing, and I don't think it is something I should have to get used to. I know what this website is meant for and I know it is filled with mostly men with high testosterone levels, but like mentioned before in this post, there is no excuse good enough to talk to the women of eroids in an obnoxious, and disrespectful manner.
Testosterone filled or not there's no excuse for being an ass or a pig. I think for the most part the men of eroids are very respectful but there are those few..... I've been married a very long time and no matter where I'm at I demand respect for her and have no problem with you demanding the same.....
Bro I can understand . Your wife is a nice lady and it would bother me .. There's a fine line in harmless humor and out right vulgarity
Exactly ..
This is a nice thought, and you get kudos for saying it. Personally unless it is directed at me I have no problem with things said online
Now if you talked like that at a dinner party it would be a different story.
My girl can hold her own in the gym, as well as on this forum. So can a few other ladies she's met here. A couple of them even scare me. They're great mentors for her. That being said, just because a lady can hold her own doesn't mean she should have to. But I'm all about equal rights and equal treatment too. That means I treat everyone with the same respect. I don't want anyone talking crazy to me, man or woman, so I mind my manners. Increased test levels is not an acceptable excuse for bad behavior, IMO. I'm not saying I'm a saint. If I get out of line, I apologize. I agree with you Gj. We all could be a little more considerate of each other, sister or brother.
This is a cool thought, and believe me I try my best to keep shit respectful especially with the ladies but let's take a look at the reality for a second. This is a steroid site. Most of the bros on this site have testosterone levels 5 to 10 times that of normal. This is probably the most testosterone heavy site on the internet. Most guys on this site can't bump their keyboard without getting a boner.
Am I wrong? I'm pretty sure that when a lady comes to a site like this she's probably aware of what she is getting into. If is a lady that is here because of her husband, I'm sure she is quite aware of the horny mentality of a juicer.
That's probably why she is here in the first place.
Given that, I really don't see a lot of guys getting out of line when a lady jumps into a thread. Every now and then it happens but whenever it happens that bro gets his shit jumped.
To keep shit on the level of mom and grandma.... Lol. I think that might be asking a little to much. Do you talk to your mom and your grandma about commuting a felony through the purchase of illegal drugs? I sure as hell don't.
That being said. I like the idea of being respectful, and I appreciate you bringing up the subject. We definitely don't want to make the ladies feel uncomfortable here.
But keeping it on the level of mom and grandma? Lol..seems a little extreme.
Besides, you know as well as I do that more than half the "ladies" on this site are just bros posing as their lady for promo purposes.
Just my .02
AnonDo guys really pose as women on here??
I think the idea is a man stealing pictures of a chick and pretending to be her. I've been accused of it a time or two. I don't think any of the women I've talked to are really men.
he's referring to a promo run .. oh maybe a year ago .. where guys were caught posing as women...lol
Oh that must have been before I paid attention lol
Oh that must have been before I paid attention lol
You need introduced to my gramma and grandpa!! They been making the worlds best moonshine for 50 years lmao.. You said a cuss word around her grandpa would wack ya grandma would make u suck on a bar of kava soap
This video may not give an exact answer to why females on gear are sometimes more raunchy than men but may offer some insight on the subject.
In no way is this meant to be disrespectful. To the ladies or to the person that posted this thread.

Well said.+1
Yes agree...and I love the influx of women lately. Many of the ones I have met lately are girlfriends and wives and they're cool as shit. As a matter of fact they usually are a lil more raunchy, straightforward and more forthcoming so I just laugh and roll right with it
Lol I do enjoy it as well and your right they can be more raunchy than us men but I have a hard time talking like that in front of them lol
