so because this is all debate
a site that is devoted to the support and dare I say the celebration of the large penis and people won't be able to post it in their avatars....
what if a member is offended by homosexuality, should that be off on some separate link...
as someone who was a victim of sexual abuse at an early age by someone older than myself, I do have issues with the notion of older sexual predators...and I do have concern about that....
again, all in the spirit of debate.

My heart goes out to you Frat. Sincerely. No one, and I mean NO ONE is subject to sexual abuse. I'm glad to see you have moved on! :D:D *rock on!*

But still, I think teens should be allowed here. Ban the stupid trolls who are just taking up Bandwidth. But the ones who sincerelly want to be here, should be allowed to be here. I say get rid of the 0 post people who haven't had any activity in 3 years.

thanks, not always easy but with people around me who care, I can make it.

Well, I'm here for you! You have nothing to worry about. (even if I am half way across the country. But i'm only a PM away!! :D:D)

Well Rob? What are your thoughts as of now?

But you see norse, this is the point. Pornography isn't (well, yeah it is also) what is illegal. It is nudity that is illegal to minors. That is why (thank you whoever made this annaligy) minors cannot buy playboy. No sex going on, but there is nudity. That is why minors can't even look at soft core porn. Minors may not see nudity (except in themselves, changing, and locker rooms). I also don't like the nude avatars. I don't judge you by your penis, so why subject me to see it? But I identify who the post is by by the avatar, so I don't want to turn them off...

Lex,

Believe me, I have NO fixation with your rear end, it repulses me when that is your avatar. I do enjoy seeing some of the fun avatars like Freddie's smiling pig, Dee's big poofy hair, and some of the cartoons, but why do I have to be subjected to things I don't want to look at. If I want to look at a butt, I can look in the mirror at my own. If I want to see a dick in underwear, I can look at my own. I know I can turn avatars off, but then the good ones are turned off, too.

From what I've been reading, I would have to point out that a site that tries to be all things to all people risks being nothing to no one.

I think teens with large dicks need a support network. I don't think this is or should be that network. Trying to censor ourselves and shield tender young minds from adult content seems to be contrary to the nature of the majority of the posts on this board.

Someone, preferably a professional with the appropriate credentials, should operate or sponsor such a site. Maybe someone already has. Don't know. Never looked.

This is a good point, and one that I think is core to the debate. This place should be about Large Penises, those who have them, those who want one, those who want one on someone else, those who just like to look at them, etc.

Mostly, this site should be an FUN place for adults to get together over a topic of common interest.

I don't want to spend my time here censoring others, and I don't think any future mods want to do this either.

I don't want to have to read a lot of disclaimers, and post in seperate forums, etc., and neither will minors. Thus, I'm afraid, it's either an adult forum or it's not.

I think there are other places that kids can go for support that are more suited for their needs. LPSG is as much about sex as it is anything else, in my opinion.

Anyway, enough for now. My $0.02

A Large Penis Support site where pictures of large penises and frank discussions about down and dirty issues of sex and sexuality are not accepted, is not the site I signed onto. Is this site appropriate for underage folks ? I think not.

Do younger folks need a site that is geared for their concerns, age, and level of maturity? Yup. This isn't and doesn't need to be that site.

No nude avatars.

Post your nude photos in the gallery. If someone wants to see it, They'll click over. Sometimes you're in the mood, sometimes you're not.

BTW, soon there will be a button that shows if someone has a gallery with a link to click to their photos, but I digress.

I have been asked to remove my avatar because of nudity. I do not appreciate the censorship, this country is getting ridiculous in regards to nudity. There has also been a rise in racism and homophobia on this site...to all those who have become friends, supporters, thank you.

Repressed sexual/body issues and a narcissist?

Danceswithlamps · 01-10-2006

Well, I see we are losing members now...

This is quite a topc. Just like when people move to Candada when the don't like the elections. Rob, This is quite a controversial issue, and I think you are taking it well. Thank you about the avatars. I think that might be a step forward. That is one more thing that the government can't complain about. Very Good.

But the minors, oh the minors. They still want on. I know, I email with a former member who got deleted. Again, only a couple years age difference. This is a big part of many people's lives. I still don't think the minor thing is fair.

As for the moderators, I and many others, would be happy to do a bit of patroling and PMing if neccisary to keep these people from doing something stupid! I know I wouldn't mind! Please consider it? Thanks.

Why all the fuss over no nudity in avatars?? Mark had the same policy and it was in force when Rob E took over. It didn't cause a mass exodus then, why should it now??
