Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

No, men tend to have their toddler son in front of them, 'teaching them to drive'. I have in fact only seen this maybe a couple of times ever, but it makes a good generalisation.

I see it a lot also the make up and texting social media reading on tablets and so much more.

You do not need a dog to be on your lap as that and so many distractions are not on whether male or female.
