Why a women's forum?

[TxDoc]

My, I'm wordy tonight. So - why are you here on TE, and is it important to you that it's a women's forum?

Hi LPH, interesting question. In my case, I grew up around bikes and just love to read/write/talk about cycling.
No, it does not matter to me wheher it's a women or men or mixed forum - what matters is the content, and I see many interesting discussions here. Actually, I teand to read the bike forums more often than TE, mostly because the 'racing/training/race report/pro cycling' sections are a bit more active there, but I enjoy both BF and TE.
A few things I especially like about TE: one is that we write better than on most online environments Seriously, there seems to be less of that teenager-like language, made of cryptic abbreviations and terrible grammar, that is so commonly observed online... another one is that it seems to be easier to get together with TE folks, I guess there's a bit more 'online-trust' here, if such a thing exists , and when we see an opportunity to meet up and ride together we go out of our way to make it happen.
