Awesome, and I was happy to show solidarity by censoring any posting of male nipples I had on my agenda - which was none. However, that did not seem to be what the ask was.
The ask seemed to be that the staff enforce that on everyone, which is an entirely different kettle of fish.
Well, as I've said, I didn't want to reopen the argument, but that can be rephrased as "she asked the staff to show their commitment to equality" as well. And as I've said already, I think both sides have valid points. That includes your own point here; I don't think that equality should necessarily entail wood-chopping. I understand the staff's sommitment to non-censorship, and I applaud it. But I do think that the reaction was unbecoming this forum, though. That is my point here, that the response -- a "dogpile", to use your word -- was a bit unsavory. The fact that others continue bringing it up even as they bemoan its longevity is also a bit odd, in my book.
For the record, I think I was the first to offer my own refusal to show my titties. Ain't no one got time for that.
