Regarding "The Man Forum"

I think it's good that we are allowed one question per week. God knows we don't wanna "wear out the man" LOL.

But....How come only the thread starter can post in their thread? I've read some of the member's threads and then some of the man's replies. I wish soooo badly the other members can jump on into the thread and comment or stuff.

I understand I guess you wouldn't want the other member's possibly asking more questions (refer back to "wearing out the man") within the thread; but it sure would be nice to have the ability or permission to post in it.

Just my thoughts, that's all.

I agree. I've thought about making threads based on the "man forum" but didn't want to be too repetitive. It'd be so much easier if we were able to comment and discuss the "man's" response.

Thanks for posting this Sheryl!

I agree. I thought of the same thing as Angie but didn't want to drive everyone mad. I seem to do that enough

This is so that the threads in the Ask a Man forum stay clean, with basically a simple question and answer. The point of the forum is to ask "A Man" a question. If you want the advice or feedback from the women of our community, you can post in any of our other forums. It is okay to post the same question in the "Ask a Man" forum as well as another forum if you would like to.

Followups can be done by the original poster as well. Feel free to discuss the Man's answers in a a separate thread if you would like, or ask "A Man" a followup question yourself (or save it for the following week if you have already asked a question).

We are trying to be respectful of "A Man" and his time, since he is a 4WT guest. It is perfectly fine to disagree with the answer he gives, since he is a man, after all.

Is there anyway the thread could automatically be posted twice, once for us to discuss and once for the "man" to answer? I don't know if that would be possible or not, but it would be awesome if it could work that way.

I also wanted to thank you again for all you do for the site, admin! We don't mean to be picky, we'd just really like to discuss these topics.

Also, we really appreciate "a man" giving us his time and energy and answering our questions for us. Thanks!

Is there anyway you could tell us the age or approximate age of this 'man' or 'men'?

There is no way for us to copy the thread, the original poster would have to copy and paste it into a new thread.

Since "A Man" may not always be the same male, he is over the age of 18 and under the age of 118, as the forum states. "A Man" simply answers questions, whether you want to agree or disagree is up to each member here.

I think I would like this man to be closer to 118....LOL He hopefully would have so much more experience and knowledge than an 18 year old.

So come on ladies...let's ask this 'man' for some of his wisdom.

Nothing sexier than an 118 year old man, LOL.

I have many questions lined up for "the man (men)" but waiting until my week is up to post again.
