Recently, a thread was started in which an FA expressing a particular turn-on. While his post was a bit sophmoric, it was unfairly met with rude responses ranging from telling him it was "crass" to telling him that the expression of this turn-on was degrading to women. Some time ago, another post expressed an extreme fantasy regarding immobility and scat fetishism. Once again, responses told him he was sick and the post was, in violation of the rules, mentioned on other threads with references to the OP being sick and disturbing.
It is apparent that many posts on the Weight Board are written by those with little or no actual interest in the subject. Many are jokes, and even not-so-thinly disguised ridicule. If a post is from a newbie, s/he can count on being attacked for not being sufficiently cognizant of Dims standards. In my opinion, if a post does not meet Dims standards, this is for a mod to deal with, not other posters. It is just as easy to ignore a post you don't like as it is to take liberties with making fun of it.
As it stands now, only the Erotic Weight Gain forum is protected. I believe that some protections need to be extended to the whole of the Weight Board to exclude posts which are rude, which make fun of sexual fantasies or attempted discussions of those fantasies, and most importantly, posts which are judgemental and do not take into account the difference between sexual fantasy and real life treatment or attitudes towards fat people.
Thoughts.
