Is it just me...
 
Or have the topics in Greekchat gotten really risque'? Some of these topics are a little awkward and perhaps a bit inappropriate.

hmmmm..ya think? Inappropriate? I'm not so sure on this one. We're Greeks, we're chatting, so it's greekchat, albeit the nc-17 version.

I've been uncomfortable with the direction that some threads have taken.

We're all adults, if you feel uncomfortable then don't read and reply.

Some welcome back YOU get! Haven't seen you post in a long while, but I always loved the name!

It is one heck of a thread, isn't it!

Yes and no, it's a public forum, so if people want to discuss the mature things, I don't see much reason why they can't.

I mean, i dont have anything to comment on the "length v girth" thread going on right now, but I don't want to read it either, so I don't read them. If there was a thread in Chit Chat (where mercifully these threads stay) about spark plugs, I wouldnt read that either, as well...they're spark plugs.

I think we just have a few wild ones that want to spice up the sexy questions. It'll die down soon eough. Besides, all the boring threads "Whats your top 10..." "long vs short hair" have already been asked.

I'm suprised it took as long as it did for someone to voice this opinion. I have to say I agree with SH80er, if you don't like the topic don't read it. We are all adults and a lot of us seem to have very healthy attitudes about sex. If we're mature enough to be engaging in the acts, why should we be afraid to talk about it?

I also agree with Sh08er I mean we're all mature people and if we can talk about these things maturly then why can't we discuss them??

KillarneyRose 11-27-2001 03:15 PM

It's all harmless fun, I think. The threads in question are appropriately titled, so if there's one that doesn't interest me or I don't feel I'll be comfortable reading I just don't go in there.

RedHotChiO 11-27-2001 03:55 PM

I suppose that SH80 is right. I guess that I am just so surprised that people are so willing to talk about these subjects so openly. Especially the ladies that are in sororities. Sometimes things are better left unsaid.

I've been uncomfortable with it also. But its a free world and people will discuss what they want to discuss! I simply choose not to participate, b/c IMO its nobody's business what I do in the privacy of my own home.

But far be it from me to rain on everyone else's parade. Talk amongst yourselves! :)

UMgirl 11-27-2001 04:11 PM

I have to agree with Maria, Ive thought it was getting a little out there, but hey, if you want to particpate...go right ahead.

DGPhoney 11-27-2001 04:12 PM

I agree with GMUTeKe, this is a public forum, therefor as long as people post and don't use explicit language (profanity) and respect each others opinions and views, then really theres nothing wrong with the thread or the topics that might be a little out there.
Also this is umm like the 4th thread about this:eek:
so like we always say,If it don't interest you don't reply, If you don't like the topic, don't read it.
It's really not brain sugery:D

You're not the only one RedHotChiO... I've raised my eyebrows several times lately when reading thread topics. Maybe I'm just old school, but I think that some of the topics are a little over the top.

carnation 11-27-2001 06:10 PM

See, even though we're all adults and can say and do what we want, what bothers me is that there'll be a thread that's going along one way and suddenly, BAM! Someone says something obscene and we're off to the races! And no, I don't have to read any more of the thread, but the fact is that I saw something gross I didn't want to.

It's happened to all of you--you're on the computer and a nasty image shows up or you're watching TV and someone says something obscene or scary that you didn't really want to hear. You know how you feel when you turn on TV and the anchor says, "And here are the burned bodies of 3 kittens who were tortured today," and you think, "I didn't want to see that!" but it's too late.

That's what it's like for some of us more conservative folks when a thread changes. Obviously if a thread has a dirty name, we aren't going to be reading it in the first place.
