Buddy we have enough hard time here trying to bat back the psychos and narcissists that fighting the ordinary man children is pointless. You pick your battles. But by all means, go to the part of the web that is not toxic in some way. While I appreciate the support of a fellow SJW I find your tactics to be too direct.

Some of the stuff I've seen on here is shockingly stupid, and there are two posters (trolls) in particular that take it to a level that I too consider disgusting. However, I'm not sure how the OP defines "objectification of women". If a woman puts the time in to look dazzling in a bikini, and willingly poses in front of a camera to showcase the results of her efforts, I see no harm whatsoever in appreciating that. As far as the racial stuff goes, I feel that we won't all truly be equal until we get to the point that no one is offended by racially charged humor and/or taunts, the act of being offended denotes an underlying sense of inferiority and lack of confidence. Why is it that only white guys are unphased by racially charged humor at their expense? If you can move beyond it, you're equal, because you feel equal. Honestly, the only thing that offends me is people getting offended all the time.

I would be a hypocrite to object to this. My signature used to be full of cheesecake (I even made a game of it during our 2014 run, adding a pic after every playoff win), and my game threads had cheerleader pics for good luck. Eventually it all felt a bit silly to me, and I decided that my posts should be less "lockeroom" and more mature. I certainly don't mind the pics by others (as long as they're not full born porn) but I know it makes some posters uncomfortable, especially women, and may out-and-out offend others. So I decided to be as welcoming as possible to my fellow Spursfans and refrain from that sort of stuff. But as I said, I would be a hypocrite to complain as I was one of the worst offenders on here.

Nothing wrong with posting pictures of Melissa. She and her fellow Silver Dancers are part of the family entertainment presented at every Spurs home game.

Obvious alt aside, I wouldn't mind a place where serious people gathered to talk basketball seriously and strategically. A place that had a higher level of discourse and not so filled with average people.

That being said, sports nerds are just as likely (if not more from personal experience) post half naked women. I don't think that its a big deal and hurts or helps discussions. Spurstalk is the fun allowed niche of spurs fan sites. Its just the way it is. You shouldn't change it into something its not.

Plus, the vast majority of women here are obviously consenting. They wanted to be seductive. This is actually an issue, because a lot of sex workers and models fight (some) feminists on this because some feminists think photos like these are exploitive, but the models and sex workers feel they do it intentionally and don't appreciate being told they are victims. To me it's not sexist or objectification to look at or enable or post sexual photos of women who chose to make these photos for that purpose.

I'd prefer to not see those kind of pics here. I like the signature ignore feat. Helps get rid of stuff without the need to complain or leave the site.

With that said, majority of pics here are from women who are intentionally posing half naked for some reason. They objectify themselves as much as the guys who post their pics.

12-16-2015, 08:39 AM
What I find funny about people like this, they say "WE" are objectifying women. But isn't these WOMEN of their own free will are stripping down in their undies and nude as well. They're objectifying themselves. There just guys out there that just like to admire it. But don't blame them as they aren't the ones that took the photo or forcing some women to work in some whore house.

I think its immature to post half naked pictures of women as your sign, but when I was young I had posters of Anna Nicole Smith. It just things young guys do. Reminds me of one time I went to Cornerstone with my Aunt, who is a member, and Haggee referring to a young man that was dating his daughter as a Hormonal Hurricane. I thought that was hilarious. Because that is how most guys are in their teens and early twenties. Me, I more of a stoical nature, so I wasn't like that. But I did have a huge crush on Anna Nicole though.

Do you go into businesses and tell people how to do their jobs? Do you go into homes and tell people how to raise their kids?

If you don't like the suggestive images, disable signatures and 90% of the "pornographic" stuff will go away. The rest can be pretty easily avoided...unless you make threads like this.

If that's not good enough, I've got one other suggestion..

Some free advice: disable the sigs or you will likely need to find another forum.

I disabled them some time ago because, not only were some so offensive, but some folks' were so long and ridiculous it took forever to get to the next post.

Recognize that lots of folks on this forum are of the fraternity,locker room, and/or high school gym class level of dealing with women.

The basketball culture promotes this. If you like the game (as I do) and are a woman (as I am), you just accept some of it as part and parcel of it. Not particularly appealing to those of us who are heterosexual females, but not worth getting upset about if you can just turn it off by disabling sigs.

Several years ago my husband and I took my brother to a Spurs game, and were lucky enough to get front row seats. As the Silver Dancers were prancing around on the court, my brother turned to my husband and said "Wow, all this - and a basketball game too!" And he was my BROTHER!! LOL.




Even though I may appear a bit inured to it all, at one game when the "Junior Silver Dancers" were strutting around the court, I did tell my son that if my granddaughter ever thought about aspiring to do something like that in public I would break both her legs myself.


Bottom line - just decide what you can put up with and what you can't, but please don't imagine that posters on a forum like this will be shamed into changing what they do or say. Trying it will have the reverse effect, as you can see from some of the posts already.
