For those of you who are offended by the topics in a forum - any forum - it's possible to make a forum not visible. I only learned that a few months ago. There were subject lines that disturbed or triggered me. Making the whole forum invisible solved the problem. Might I offer a suggestion that if a forum bothers you, you make it invisible, problem solved.
forgot to add...this is also the internet who's to say someone is actually a female...bottom line someone can claim they are female or male and still be the opposite gender reading opposite gendered posts. a man can claim to be female but in reality be male and reading the female members only womens membership board... short line there is no way to prevent opposite gendered from reading each others posts even if the forum is member designated.
