As I said before, the negative comments aimed toward me personally in this thread (including several that have since been deleted) have all been regarding my appearance. The post slamming Vanilla was regarding her appearance. There have been posts about how sexy the women of this forum are countless times, but rarely if ever do you see people saying "Roxy has a great knack for knowing the exact song she should share to hook someone on a band." It's rather "Roxy's foxy." That simply doesn't happen to the men here. And yes, batty, #notallmen, but I'm not the only one who feels this way, I'm just the only one talking about it publicly.
The way I look should not be a point of discussion on a music forum of which I've been a part for nearly six years.
I sincerely appreciate the kind comments I've received over the last few pages and through pm. This forum is a good bunch as a whole, which is why I'm still around. But Freebase, that hurt dude. And I've lost respect for you as a friend and a person.

For the most part, comments about people's looks happen in the MB Picture Gallery. And yeah, it's mostly directed toward the girls, but otherwise, it's not really much of a thing. On the rest of the forum, people generally talk about Vanilla's obsession with Lady Gaga, or misspoptart listening to pop, or you having a band (although, unless I'm missing most of your posts, a high percentage of them are in the Picture Gallery these days, so maybe it shouldn't be surprising if people aren't talking as much about your music taste as you might like).
This is a forum of indie kids for god's sake. Guys are gonna be guys to some extent no matter how PC they are, but half of the people here are probably as PC as you're gonna get outside of a feminist forum. If you feel objectified on this of all sites, then I don't know what to tell you.
Edit: And now that I think about it, I think the Picture Gallery thing might even be bull****. Guys are always getting complimented on there.
