    Its mostly men on here... and at times, a proportion of them are fairly aggressive and gobby. Do women feel put off?
    I think any girl who grew up with a brother/s, wouldn't be fazed by it? :D

    No. I think the men here post some of the funniest stuff I've read. If I was easily offended I'd just lurk around the Ladies Lounge.

    AH men are sound for the most part. There's one or two assholes but sure you get them everywhere.

    No. Only humourless ones who can't give/take a slagging.

    No. As someone else said, if you are easily offended, try somewhere else.

    Anyway, you get to see the real workings of a man's mind here. Well...a certain breed of man!

    In fairness, your average female AH'er has the edge because law-of-averages she has probably talked to a member of the opposite sex.

    not really,
    I kinda feel like my opinions more valid here as there hasn't been a zillion other women saying the same thing.

    I think most of us know it is only messing and having a laugh but I would not feel intimated anyway.

    I can give as good as i get.

    Heh heh heh, true. :D Whenever I come across a particularly nasty poster, I think of the Comic Book Store Owner in the Simpsons :D

    No I don't feel intimidated posting here. This place is mostly amusing with some witty posters.

    There are no women on the internet!!



    But, if i just happened to be a woman, no i wouldn't feel intimidated on AH. I have more important things to be worrying about.
