To be honest, I think I've seen about 5 people post topless pictures in the entire time I have been a member on this forum. That's even after the whole man nips fiasco. I don't see this being a huge issue in the future. I will continue to not post man nips. I don't remember ever having posted any to begin with but if I have, I've also posted rule appropriate female nipples so I hope that evens out the score.
It appeared to me that the request was that we either ban man nips or that we admit to being sexist. I had no interest in doing either, personally.
Why not admit to being 'sexist' in the sense of unequal treatment when that is true? Doesn't mean we want to be sexist. We just can't afford equal nip treatment when to do so will alert the google nano-bots, thereby undermining the financial viability of the site.
I already agreed that the rule itself was sexist, that the law it is based on is sexist, that the society that upholds the sentiment is sexist. That wasn't good enough it seemed. I won't admit to being personally sexist because I do not believe I am and I do not believe that refusing to restrict the posting privileges of male members makes me sexist. I would do the same for women were it a viable option but it is not.
