aquarius moon Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 I have no connection with the Family Room (kids are all grown up) or Items Wanted (have nothing anyone would want) or For Sale (I sold anything worth anything years ago) or What's on in ED (hardly ever go anywhere)General ED news/gossip, I do post here but find a lot of the threads boring, repetitive and forever being taken over by trolls.The lounge is the best place to be because, yes, it does have a boy's club (agree with RPC) and being female I'll never belong to that. BUT..... everyone that posts in it, boys club especially are the most entertaining posters on the whole forum & I always enjoy reading/smiling at what they've written.Plus I can talk about football and The X Factor and all kinds of stuff that no-one outside the lounge is remotely interested in, in a relaxed & friendly atmosphere.

Loz Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 Is it a "boy's club" though? I didn't know you were female, AM. How many other posters are there that everyone just assumes are male out there?It could actually be a girl's club for all we know!

aquarius moon Posted November 28, 2014 Author Share Posted November 28, 2014 I remember starting a thread a few years ago entitled 'Are you a he or a she?' or something similar because I couldn't figure out the gender of certain regulars.Even though I admitted to being a 'she' most people didn't want to admit to being anything. I think they prefer to create an element of mystery.

Mick Mac Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 Some people's names are a bit of a giveaway. For example Bob implies male, although that could be what she does.

Loz Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 I'm confused - I thought *Bob* was a she?. Never quite figured out Huguenot, either.
