And I don't care to see these headings in GD. I don't want to see my crafts discussions posted on GD, I'm happy that there are forums, for my music posts, appalachian discussions, crafts, foods in separate forums which I am subscribed to.. When I want to see discussions on those topics, I'm happy there's a special forum for those topics. The philosophical or sociological underpinnings of Sex Matters ought to have it's speial place just like Religion for instance, or books and lit. whatever. my opinion.

Sure. Put it over on Discussionist. nt Erich Bloodaxe BSN Jul 2014 #1
