Anyone else feel the same? Any fans of the categories out there? Speak your mind, I’m listening. ~ a

Date Joined Jul 2001 Total Posts : 10353 | Posted 8/3/2001 7:37 AM (GMT -6) |   | I like the categories and think they're helpful. But I'm wondering if we should add a category for men (like me?) who are insensitive to gender inclusive language, a category named something like "Boys Town," where lots of spittin and chewing goes down.
Any interest?

As to categories? Well, they make postings more organized and easy to find. If anything, there should be more! As they say, "cleanliness...oops...orderliness...is next to godliness." GJ

I was going into the individual categories when I first started, but I found it too time-consuming. I have an old fashioned internet hook-up, and I have a feeling that if I had a cable hook-up that was quicker I would feel a little friendlier towards the categories.
To sum up: the categories are OK as long as you don't take away my Active Topics option.
And by the way, if you go with the boys town category, I have a feeling some women will be the ones spitting. Big time.
