"ladies, do ye gossip much to one another here in private about men?" About the men on here on in general I remember reading a thread previously where some woman posted that they passed on information to each other about some men for safety reasons. Would it bother you if women that you only know on here talk about you in private If they do I'd hope they don't think too bad of me but apart from that I'm never going to know am I so why worry about it | |||

If you go through with it it's a bit late when your friends have to contact the police afterwards if you haven't messaged and something has happened!!!

"its a simple one. I'd say alot of women on here, if meeting a fella, tell one or 2 others on here who they're meeting. does the same apply in abundance with men? I doubt it. what I will say is, when meeting somebody you usually have others around, cafe, restaurant etc. you're not meeting down a dark secluded laneway." Why do you think that is? Perhaps men don’t need to tell others because it’s less likely they’ll be attacked, sexually assaulted etc. You commented above that you think “men are able to look after themselves better”. Maybe it’s time to start looking at things from others perspectives. Maybe it’s because women are less likely to physically attack men. So instead of having that misogynistic, condescending attitude, that women aren’t able to defend themselves as well because they’re on average not as physically strong, maybe you should think about the people who actually make women feel this way and why the prospect of being physically attacked, sexually assaulted, stalked etc is a real issue for women. Because there are people doing this all the time and I can assure you that it is not the fault of the victim, regardless of their physical ability. In relation to the “gossip” element of your question, women sharing warning signs and bad experiences with each other is not gossip. It’s a form of protection. Luckily there are many men here who understand and support that. | |||

It would definitely be safer to meet in a public place but attacks can still happen on a second meeting or whenever you are alone with that person, or indeed they could follow you home. The point I am trying to make is that women are not attacked because of their perceived lack of physical strength, women are attacked because there are men out there who want to attack them. I know there are women who do the same but it’s not as prevalent. In either case, we should understand that anyone who is taking steps to ensure their own safety should be commended and supported, rather than being accused of gossiping. | |||

I would disagree solely on women here in the past saying they got on like a house on fire with some men who they disliked on the forum. it's like I was saying yesterday. you don't know somebody properly until you meet face to face. " I’d agree to a point. People may disagree on opinions but may be able to put that aside. Attitudes are a different story. Quite often here it’s not what someone says, but how they say it. How others dismiss people or how they treat others on a thread, that’s more difficult to ignore. So, while some could easily get past something arbitrary like who likes to put their Christmas tree up in October, they may find it more difficult to talk to someone who tends to shout at and berate someone because they choose to put their tree up early. You know what I mean? | |||

I would take a word of warning from someone too, i might still choose to decide for myself but I like people to look out for each other if theres a real risk. thats a sign of a respectful community | |||

If it’s an honest response to the OP.. think most lads would expect the women here to network a bit for safety if nothing else... any guy having a problem with that should pull his head out of his ass and get a grip.. Massive huge red flag for women I think. A man who thinks women’s safety isn’t an issue is either particularly f*cking arrogant or someone to avoid. No one is saying that!!! What but don't you get?? The point is the safety steps you have described wouldn't protect you or prevent you coming to harm if you did meet some asshole on here. " Perhaps not, but it may get you out of a scary situation more quickly. It may allow help get to you if a situation you were in started to feel threatening. For example, you tell someone where you're going beforehand and the pertinent details. You may arrange to check in with them during the meet at a prearranged time. Either way, if you found yourself in a vulnerable position it's much easier to send a quick text asking for help than it would be to start explaining by text where you are, who you're with and why you're there | |||

I’ve had some of the best sex EVER with people I’ve met on fab. Clearly my asshole radar is on point! However I’m not arrogant enough to think that won’t ever change. I’ve definitely had shit sex but I’ve also made brilliant friends. | |||

There have been some lately that have been so obnoxious in the way they have tried shouting down and berating others all because they have a different opinion to theirs. But also I would not be nieve enough to think that someone could not have a dark dangerous side to him and be very capable of hiding it through charm and seemingly perfect persona here. No matter how we as women try to put in place steps to protect ourselves there potentially could be that one time we are unlucky. | |||

"There is an element of risk with every new meet and everyone should take whatever precautions necessary. That goes for men and women alike. Arseholes are not gender specific either here or in the wider community. I've been a victim of my own naivety in fab and met a woman who used violence to get me to react. I didn't and left her to it but I've no doubt some men would have reacted in a situation like that. At the same time there have been a number of dangerous men named and shamed in the forums and in status updates so only a fool would try to argue they aren't out there. How many threads have we seen over the years and especially in recent months about pic sharing in men's groups? Running parallel with those we have the ladies groups that do indeed discuss men and also share pics and messages I've never been a member of either group but enough comments have been made in the forums by women who have been in these groups and witnessed this that I've no reason to doubt them. Based on those comments and others it's obvious that not all chat groups are specifically to protect women from dangerous men. There are many other reasons and while I agree completely that everyone should take precautions I'm also not naive or stupid enough to believe that all those lovely personas that people have created for themselves on here are real. Some are just a little too perfect while others have obviously been well schooled. " I think the point is that we have to make up our own minds about someone but warnings about dodgy fuckers (of both genders) won’t go unappreciated. Also sharing pics is sickening and scary. | |||

"having an opinion and disagreeing with others is not shouting them down. if you have a view on something and a debate/disagreement ensues you're going to keep highlighting your point. do I think women solely talk with others on here due to a safety reason? not at all. do I judge people through a screen? not at all. the only face I'll judge a person on is a face to face meeting " No don't you know that when you can't debate your point of view and there are clear flaws in it you change tact and openly accuse those who have an alternative point of view of shouting you down!!

"What’s the issue with women sharing information on some guys on Fab? If it’s a safety issue especially! Also If some women share something about a meet -good / bad, indifferent- what’s the problem? Badmouthing guys unfairly however isn’t nice." I think sharing guys face pics isn't either. Which is what my origional post was about. | |||

To try to look good on here in an attempt to be popular and get laid at the expense of actually recognising facts. It's like the playground in primary school, backing up your friends even though you know they're wrong. I thought the forum was a place where we could engage in adult discussion. The points I've made has been based on facts and they've been dismissed as they don't suit or comply with what certain other individuals have posted. Now what were we saying about personalities hiding behind keyboards again and not showing their true selves....? | |||

I think they should but I dont see what telling somebody else will do for your safety. you meet a man, you have told somebody else. he decides to give you a hiding, you're now destroyed. what can the other person do for you? The lady speaks with ladies that guy has already met previously if possible to see if he is all he says he is so she feels safer in that knowledge as well so as to meet or not. I have also witnessed people say in the past, that's a reason they dont display veris as they were getting mail off individuals asking what so and so was like before they met the same person. that doesnt make sense though as there would be no veri if a fella was in some way not normal. " Some people bully women into leaving them veris. Fact. Actually happened to me more than once (obviously I'm talking about people I've met, not random online requests) | |||

"Re: had a chat with someone lately who told me about a family member that had been married for years and when she finally admitted what torture he had out her through for years everyone was stunned and shocked.

To try to look good on here in an attempt to be popular and get laid at the expense of actually recognising facts. It's like the playground in primary school, backing up your friends even though you know they're wrong. I thought the forum was a place where we could engage in adult discussion. The points I've made has been based on facts and they've been dismissed as they don't suit or comply with what certain other individuals have posted.

Maybe you didn't deem it worthy of a response, choosing to carry out your own tirade instead. That's cool. I've no friends to back up. No agenda. I'm not beholden to anyone or trying to curry favour in order to get the ride.
