Not sure if we've had this conversation before, but I'm wondering if this forum should be restricted to women only.
Would that offer a better sense of comfort?
Would the men be terribly offended if they couldn't get in here?

If you prefer to voice your opinion in private, feel free to PM or email me.

Thanks!

This has come up before and I'd be in favor of putting the "Ladies Only" sign on the door.  Sarge makes a good point also.

I say give them their own space, if they need help I'm sure they will ask. It might help create more interest in the forum by women vette loversWink

I'd also say to give them their own space. Treat it like the "Anything Goes" forum, where only the people who have access to it see the content. Micki is already a moderator, so it probably wouldn't be an issue for her to keep an eye on the Women's forum.

Sorry Micki, here I am volunteering you for something!!

Interesting that the guys are the ones responding here.

I too am in favor of them having their own section.  Maybe they won't post those nasty emails about men on our sideRolling%20On%20The%20Floor%20LaughingRolling%20On%20The%20Floor%20LaughingRolling%20On%20The%20Floor%20Laughing

Personally, I kinda like the guys opinions on stuff.  Doesn't bother me any.  Like I said before, if there was an "all guys" forum, I'd want to be on that one, too!!!

Vette(s): 74 coupe 4 speed 350, 54K actual miles, all original; paint, interior, engine, split bumper. #'s match. 2nd owner, no stress cracks.
I am OK too, with having it for only the women.Thumbs%20Up
 
But I think, Maybe the overall decision should be up to the women. 
        You could email all the female members??
        Maybe a vote??

I agree with Steve (and not cause he has a 74 too).   Wink   I feel the gals should decide if they want their forum private.  As far as I'm concerned,
I've never been in their forum, so its fine with me.
