meganiwish Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 I don't know if this is the right place for this, but on a hunch I looked at a few random hello messages (not a scientific poll by any means) and it looks to me that we girls are sadly lacking in the welcoming messages. When I think back, I think I was mostly (if not entirely) welcomed by guys. (I can't believe I didn't check before I started writing this.)Are we really so unwelcoming, girls?

Shafted Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 I never realized that Megan. You are so right. Where are all the welcoming ladies on this forum. It must be overwhelming for a girl who says hello on this forum to be welcomed by a bunch of guys. Shafted, the boots that is!

jetheelsfan Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Maybe you have started a new trend. I hope. Just a bit higher to to delight - low enough for healthy foot comfort and great beginning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amanda Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 I used to be quite good at it. I do try to welcome new females when I notice them. However, welcoming new males would be a full time job and with lots of extra PM's to answer as a result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I just think the girls could look out for the girls. We do get privileges here, after all. I like the girls only forum because sometimes I just want to talk to girls, so... Actually I came here just to talk to girls, but then I made new male friends. It'd be nice to have some girls say hello. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 I don't really watch or post that often in the welcomes so well done for spotting. Amanda did when I came in. I think I did a abridged life history which I feel should be the norm. Probably not so necessary for girls. I think "Hi I'm X, I'm new here" isn't enough and even when asked in replies often no history or general location is left out. There are many that are only a dozen or so miles apart that could be advantageous friends. Friends NOT possible dates!! I got a PM from someone local - I gave a middle location (within a mile as he was a new member) requested a general from him = no reply ???

I'm old enough to be unfazed but... I don't know how to put this. I know, do you lke to walk into a pub full of men? I still don't, but.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how to put this. I know, do you lke to walk into a pub full of men? I still don't, but.. That's funny, I once walked into a restaurant full of women... not quite a hen-night, but what I loved was that they seemed to be all dressed up (so many heels!) for the sheer fun and pleasure of it and enjoying a night out among friends. I only wish I'd had my heels to slip into and been welcomed to join the party. If you like it, wear it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
