Too many ladies in here. I'm worried I'll catch hysteria. Is a wandering uterus contagious?

So....is there a competition of the number of posts going on?

Remember this, my friends: there are no such things as bad plants or bad men. There are only bad cultivators.
I agree that we cannot match pointless chatter. But if you consider that the women have 2,668 posts over 952 days that would be 2.8 posts per day. The Blokes' thread has 815 posts over 41 days that would be 19.1 posts per day.
Am I missing something...did the women have a point about something somewhere?

Your figures are correct, but that is because the men had been suppressed for so long by not having a thread of their own that, naturally enough, there was a great burst of enthusiasm when one was finally opened. Of course, that was bound to tail off after a while but, if we want to keep it going, we will have to watch its progress in the rankings. If the women have kept their thread going with 2.8 posts per day, it shouldn't be too difficult to do the same.
but! there is a high percentage of posts here from female litnetters, and this thread would slow substatially if we all finally got out of it.Do you not agree?

Yes you are right. I had forgotten about the previous thread which by my reckoning lasted about nine months. Perhaps it should have been reactivated rather than start a new thread.
Not necessarily. It may be that a number of men don't want to contribute because there are too many women cornering the thread.![]()
If you like, I can merge the threads under the new name.Yep, that's right... Why don't you blame the good old girl for it?Not necessarily. It may be that a number of men don't want to contribute because there are too many women cornering the thread.![]()
