Re:
First off, the title of the post seems to instill a flame war. It's like dangling fresh meat over shark infested waters.
Secondly, what's the purpose of the site?
Many guys here complain that we are not PUA enough and we are too Self-Improvement oriented. Many of the more experienced/knowledgable members have been banned or defected to pimphop.
Not for nothing, but the purpose of the site is a small, male community of some 5,000+ exchanging things. I was a member on ASKMEN.com and the site relationship boards got lit up and locked quite often due to the flame wars incited by the sexes. And while you desire to have peace, it doesn't normally happen when the purpose of sosuave is to do just the opposite, or causes women or men to get emotional.
I appreciate the many intelligent responses of women that are beneficial to the boards. However, if it was female, objective advice we sought, to ASKMEN we would go.

As far as women finding this site, let them. Makes no difference. I dig Wyldfire, and I see eye to eye on some issues with her, but, what gets me about women is when they're insulted or upset, they'll justify their transgressions because you've hurt them.
"Oh, well I did X, Y, Z because you did this."
So, doesn't make it right, and in the heat of the moment, most forget that. Nothing is personal, it's all words on here. You choose to be offended or not, and with some 5,000+ users, most of whom benefit by reading and doing what is observed and spoken, the most damage or non damage is to them.

Fact of the matter is, the purpose of this site is the ruling law, everything else is incidental to that.
You post on something about women and get bad responses?
-Too bad, this is a guy site.
You don't like the advice you get?
-Too bad, this is a guy site.
You have problems with male members?
-Too bad, this is a guy site.
I recall many guys, hoping on 'relationship' boards, most of them headed by castrated men, and getting kicked almost instantaneously. And some of those guys were merely posting intellectual comments, no rage involved. There isn't much latitude with such sites.
Here, people get LOTS of leeway to be a participant, but its abused because we are men, and for every excuse a woman uses, men can't.
Again: MALE SITE.
Feel priviledged to be here or leave. It isn't that we don't like having the few female participants its that the purpose is lost in people's PERSONAL issues. This is girlsuave.com or Wyldfiresuave.com. It's sosuave.com, and unless the mods tell me different, it remains that way with a stated purpose. If that purpose changes, I'm gone, as I'm sure other guys would leave to.
Men would NEVER be allowed on a woman's forum, for woman's issues, and if we got OFF topic and began a whole mess load of threads about GUY stuff, we'd be banned. Not to mention, if we flamed or insulted, or even spoke up, they'd BAN as well. ANY member here can attest to such intolerance, YET we are expected to practice the same tolerance??
I thought this was the time time of equality???
