What do you think of the idea of the guys having a men only section where we can discuss things that may not be considered as mainstream or family oriented as the general forum. Same as when we are at a house party and the guys all gravitate to the garage for a smoke, a beer and some man talk. I'm not talking about making it a porn palace but a place we can go and not worry about offending anyone. What do you all think of the idea? We could call it "THE GARAGE" Chime in!!!!!!!!

The MODS already know I am in support of such a place,
also requested a high posters area for some of the older forum friends to post to each other, keeping conversations and relationships up!
support yes to both
Thanks for bringing this up to the MODS again JAB
Great idea! Now how do you keep the nancy boys out who will run to teacher when they get offended? Look what happened when someone got their panties in a twist over conspiracy theories.
As far as high poster area, quantity means nothing without quality. Anyone can run their numbers up with meaningless posts. Keep the secret handshake/ high priests of the forum bs out.
We could make it the same as the women's forum where you apply for inclusion. In doing so you accept the parameters of the forum. It could be open to women as well... so long as they accept the same parameters. Same as when sometimes one or 2 of the women who can't stand the kitchen talk gravitate to the garage. Thoughts?!!
JAB
Great idea JAB. Got no problem with women joining in.
I think it's a great idea. I know not a guy so my vote doesn't count
Hey oldschool. Thanks for the support. I will say that every vote counts. This is about inclusion. Not exclusivity. It would be open to everyone who wishes to partake... so long as they understand and accept the parameters.
JAB
I would love that as would many, but OUR wants are irrelevant. There is only 1 want that matters here.
Sign me up for this we need one lol
Preparedness is like a condom , I've rather have it and not need it, rather than need it and not have it
Oldschool, you, Farmgal, ICRCC, etc all you ladies are all welcome.
Sign me up as well. I like the idea of having "Man Cave." 😎
I'm in as well...
I think the men deserve their spot and I hope they'll follow the same spirit as the ladies (bring discussion of interest to a larger group back to the main board). Enjoy Boys! 😀
I know I won't ask to the join in on the Men's Forum unless one of you men invite me yourself. As a tomboy growing up, I'd probably appreciate those kinds of discussions, and many of you already have a glimpse into my sense of humour, but I also respect fellows need GUY TIME, so I won't intrude unless you think my opinion would add value. 😎
If life hands you lemons, be sure you have a battery backed up juicer to make some good ol' fashioned lemonade! 😉

So JAB, what topics were you thinking of?
If there is a legitimate need for such a section, then it certainly deserves consideration.
Just keep in mind that the women's section is not just a place for women to chew the fat.
It is there for them to discuss prepping issues related to women's specific needs.
If for example you would like to discuss who will be performing your annual prostate exam after SHTF, ok...but if you want this just because the women have a place and you feel left out, that's a different story.

"who will be performing your annual prostate exam after SHTF" wow that is an tender subject. no pun intended
that raises a really good point on after SHTF health care
