i note that to date there have been 75 responces to this post mostly interesting / helpful / humerous etc & would like to thank you all.
however 2 of the posts could be described as unnessesarily picky about the word " totty "
interestingly both of these negative posts were written by moderaters
why are you so out of step with everyone else ?
is it political correctness gone mad?
or cant you just enjoy a bit of fun ?
maybe the power is too much to handle X

i have started a post about the negativity of the moderators.

I would suggest that the Mods have just as much right to their opinion as you do to yours, Euro.
And as a suggestion, if you have any critique, it's probably best to handle this by way of a PM to the Mod concerned.
Otherwise, regarding your somewhat contentious final line, you could well be en route for the ignomony of forum ban!
Just a friendly word of caution.
of course i agree everyone is entitled to a point of view !
and my point of view is that the mods were overly negative about something they couldnt view within its context - why should i not make that view public ?
blank lines deleted by a mod (is this too negative? )
Frankly, if this is a demonstration of the way you miss the point I think your chances of success with the opposite sex are more limited than I thought
My views had nothing to do with me being a mod and everything to do with me being female, and I would hazard a guess that the other mod (if both posts weren't mine) felt the same. Gluestick is correct, we are allowed an opinion.
FWIW Totting is East End slang for what the rag and bone man does. Totty is slang for what he collects, perhaps that is why I think its a vaguely unpleasant term and not one that would endear me to a person of the oposite sex that I heard using it to refer to women.
Perhaps the women you know feel differently.

in one of my earlier responces i explained why i used the term "totty " perhaps you didnt read that ?
it seems to me you are trying to play and referee the game at the same time which isnt normal.
within any post on a forum there will be varying points of view which is great , what i dont accept is being told i am "shallow" for using a word that others wouldnt have used.
what i would also point out is the original post attracted a much higher number of views and responces than most of the posts on this section of the forum - so the word "totty " must be interesting to some.
Euro - still smiling x
