i've thought long and hard about this for days. what i came up with was "who cares."
for all practical purposes this is such a male dominated board that the females simply can't start a thread asking other females something without ten thousand dudes rolling into it trying to add some funny feedback in hopes of getting attention.
i think it's more of the fact that mom put the cookie jar up out of your reach and now you're upset because there's all these chocolate chip cookies, lil debbie snack cakes, chocodiles, and double stuff oreos all in one bowl and you can't stick your grubby hand in it because you're too short.
