MANic Monday

So I've sat on saying this and bit my tongue. But oddly I don't feel I should.

There are several men, myself included when demands, comments etc have been made on threads that are more for guys to look at and have pointed out that no man has the right to demand anything of the ladies. That we should respect and be grateful for anything they are willing to share.

I'd like to point out that it goes both ways..Not everyone is fully confident and for many it takes them out of a comfort zone. Some are more than happy to share. So perhaps think on that..
 
Good point Lupine ...

You took it pretty seriously tho it's all in good fun

You say that though. But look at how many times a guy has said X has better or you should post this shot and been shot down by one of us. It's the same principal..

Anyone is free to post as much or as little as they won't and yes my post probably won't win me any friends. But it wasn't the reason for posting it. Having paired something along the same lines protecting ladies views and rights. I don't see the difference saying the same about a guys.

True also I edited mine. Im with you on this one
 
I don't post any pics myself here (not even my pfp). So I don't ask anybody too. It's only fair. When I feel comfortable I'll post some more. Till then be content looking at my visor
 
Appreciate the comments.
Posting intimate pics is fun and exciting, scary and not without risk.
Putting yourself out there is so to make yourself vulnerable - open potentially to judgement, maybe even intimidation. In practice here I'm grateful and a little amazed at how supportive and complimentary women are in response (unless the guy's a clear jerk--then watch out). But there's an edge to this stuff. It's good to have it acknowledged. Thanks.
 
Honestly. I don’t think it was too demanding. I read it as a pretty fun and light hearted comment. I see what you’re saying. But just remember. It’s all fun. It’s tough to step outside our comfort zone that’s for sure. But I don’t read @FieryFox comment as demanding or rude in anyway. So on that note. I’ll repost a picture hahah

I was completely joking around and I apologize if it came off any other way
There is no need to apologize Foxy. This thread has one purpose. For the guys to show the goods for the lady's, that's it. If someone has no intent to post any pics here then why even comment and start drama. This thread is a show it and post it. Though the argument brought up in here is admirable, it's pure and simple drama.

Couldn't agree more with Mr skidude there is no need for any apology. .the only way things get taken the wrong way is pethaps the person who's got it jumbled was looking for the drama ...like ski said though a valid point but in all honesty I've never seen that going on here in any thread ...

I cannot really agree with you. We all struggle with our uncertainties and it does indeed require courage for a man too to expose himself here despite being a man and not a super model.

But what i do not agree with the rest of your remark. I have not seen a lack of respect in the posts you mentionned, I have seen encouragment. Simply women appreciating the male body, giving us a chance to overcome the limitations we just set ourselves.

There are indeed men who have been attacked for doing seemingly the same. The question is why. The few cases i have seen they were agressive, objectified the female poster, lacked respect, didn't show appreciation. It doesn't feel like that when I read the posts from this thread.

That's your choice to agree or disagree with anything anyone posts on a public forum.
