    On a serious note, it probably would be a good idea to move the thread to the Backroom where the opt-in option applies. IMO it has the potential to upset people with different cultural views (e.g. strictly religious individuals) as much as political discussion does.

    I don't think said people would even consider opening the thread. It's pretty obvious what you're going to see.

    That sounds like Fragadellic bait.

    You're completely right. We need two Babe threads.

    I would have to say that I support TuffStuffMcGruff's call here - in fairness, both threads should be in the same place, whether it be frontroom or backroom - just for the sake of equality.

    Given the choice between those two, I would suggest that the backroom is probably the more appropriate location for these threads.

    Just my two florins worth....

    no one should even care where they are i highly doubt some religious nut is going to be furious over where to threads are positioned, that someone highly religious shouldn't even be looking at in the first place

    The more important thing, I think, is that wherever they are, they should be in the same place...

    You are quite right, those who may be offended should simply opt not to open the thread, but sadly the world doesn't always work that way. At least if both were to be in the backroom, it can be shown that steps had been taken to minimise any possible offence.

    I wasn't aware that there was one either, but as Shieldmaiden so eloquently pointed out, such things do appeal to some members, so there you go.....

    Maybe it is some kind of trick to get women into the backroom ??

    No but if they were both in the backroom that would be prejudice to the frontroom as the dominant babe thread is in the frontroom, so i would create another protest campaign to move the babe thread back to the frontroom
