Why a women's forum?

[Biciclista]

Among other things-
I am here because the forum isn't laden with pornographic pictures of women, the "F" bomb, and responses to questions that insult the poster's intelligence.

no kidding. Although I confess to having posted a naked picture of Lance on his bike several years ago here (the thread was quickly locked and thrown away.. ) but that still hangs on my wall in my studio.

In my last post I forgot to mention a few things, as I was tired. I am also a member of BikeForums. Like another poster in this thread, I am overweight. I started a thread in the General Cycling subforum asking why so many people put music over their ride videos. It turned into a bit of a debate, but stayed civil. A couple of the male Clydes there suggested that I should upload a ride video. At first I was hesitant because I figured all the Sir Lance-a-wants on there would scoff at my slow climbing speed. Finally I agreed to make a video and it ended up being very popular One of the guys who first suggested I make the video sent me a PM telling me about the Clydesdale/Athena subforum. He suggested posting the video there and told me it is a very supportive, friendly forum where people are rarely insulting. He was right. When I posted the video it was very well received.

Since then I have posted many videos there and contributed to many threads. The people there are the friendliest on BF.

The Road Cycling subforum is the opposite. I tried posting some of my videos in the ride video thread there. They were ignored, while the "cool people" with the super expensive high-tech toys, 20 mph average speeds, and super-annoying music over their videos got rave reviews I even explained that I posted the videos to show what the average recreational cyclist is capable of if they are determined enough. I mentioned that I am an overweight female. Still no responses. That was the reaction I was afraid of in the beginning when people first said I should make a video.

I also got ignored when I posted pictures of my road bike in the pictures threads. Since I don't own a carbon wonder bike worth thousands of dollars, I was deemed unworthy

I also have access to BF's Women's Cycling subforum, but I no longer post there. After banging heads with several members there, I figured my warped sense of humor and cynical nature are not compatible with most of the posters in that forum.
