sex forum Options

[william]

^i like that idea.

and sammi, i understand what you're saying, but i was reffering to google.. not your family and such.. did i miss something? anyways, i guess a discussion might be beneficial in some ways...

[sammi rules you]

yea, plus, what i would find on google would most likely be written by adults and such. i would want the answer in words i can understand; language currently used. (not that i wouldn't understand what's on google, but i'm sure many of the members here would be like "whaaaat?") plus, i would like to see what others have done/would have done in a similar situation.

sure, it's not necessary, but neither is the cars forum. or the anime forum. or a lot of things on cb. however, it would be beneficial to most if not all of the members here. 13/14 year olds know what goes on during sex....i mean, i got that talk in 5th grade at school. it's not like we're talking about showing 5 year olds porn. the older members can post topics on their experiences (or the younger if they got to it faster) and others can discuss what happened and why, etc. etc. it would benefit those posting the topics and it would benefit those reading so they would know why something happened or what to do in a similar situation in their future.

for example, the anime forum isn't really beneficial to me at all since i don't really like anime. however, i think a sex forum would be very useful since i'm at an age right now we're i might be presented with situations in which i wouldn't know what to do. i have a boyfriend who's turning 17 in august, and i will be (and have been) in situations where i haven't really been sure what i'm supposed to do. there have been members here who have been through that and understand what i'm feeling and can help, and there are members who haven't and can learn from it when that time comes for them.

^hmm... that's definitely true, but i just don't think it really... fits cb. i don't know, i'm definitely not afraid to talk about sex (my parents explained it to me in preschool, haha), but for some reason i just don't think it's gonna work. meh, i'm already sick of debating about this, because i can see both sides.

[sammi rules you]

well, it's not like we'd be forcing everyone to go in there. if people are going to be uncomfortable seeing those kinds of things, they can just not go there. just as if people don't feel like discussing fashion, they probably won't go in the fashion forum.

[jordanriane]

touchmymonkey, in example you gave in your previous post could've easily been posted in the relationships, or even searched, because I've definitely a thread related to "what should i do," etc.

Like the pets forum suggested, sex is too specific.

Talking about condoms and birth control can easily be kept to the boys/girls locker, and I'm sure it's already been posted about in there, and if it hasn't, it could be.

edit:

examples threads that COULD go into a sex subforum, but have already been discussed in a subforum already created:
"When was your first time?"
"Do you masturbate?"
"Virginity."
"Sex On Your Period."
"withdrawal or pulling out"
"can u be a pregnant virgin??" (lmfao....)
"rape"
"How is STDs spread when both people are virgins?

i could go on, but those are just from the first two pages found in the girls locker.

^Exactly, and they don't belong there. Also, I am sure that people have MANY more...detalied questions to ask but don't want to get 1000 replies saying "OMG THIS IS LYKE NOT PG13!!! MODDDD!!!111!!!".

Besides, it is not like we are forcing people to go in there. Also, as James brought up, it really isn't cBs fault if minors are ON the site. There is an age verifier. People have questions and people who are "move experienced" can provide answers. As Sammi said, it can save some people a lot of embarassment and whatnot. Some people just feel more comfortable asking those their age online.

I don't see why everyone is making this a huge deal. It is sex, sex is part of nature. You are in this world because your parents had sex. It is okay to talk about SEX....SEXSEXSEX

[sammi rules you]

yea i posted my one topic in relationships. we'll see what people say. so far i have 19 views and one reply.

i just think..if i'm 15 and i've already experienced a lot of this, the 13-14 year olds (some who also have) can learn from it since they'll probably be experiencing it soon anyway. and i mean, if they're uncomfortable talking about it, they won't go in there. people aren't that stupid..

[jordanriane]

No, not exactly, as my point wasn't for a sex subforum.
Unless you mean "exactly why there should be a sex subforum," otherwise what you said should be in agreeance with me, and it's obvious your view is of the opposing side [of mine.]

My point is that those threads have already been made--They already have plenty of responses. The need for the forum seems rediculous. It sounds like someone just wants to go on and blab about "sex sex sex sex." It's already being dicussed in the boy and girls locker. It seems to be going just fine in there.

[Rachel]

I know what your point was. I was saying that your point really helped my side and not yours.

What is the problem with "blabbing" about sex anyways? You are probably going to have sex one day, if not soon, and you have questions. I see this forum as more of a question and answer thing. Not a "OMG I JUST HAD SEX, IT WAS f**kin GREAT!" I am pretty sure that is not what Elba meant by starting a sex forum. It would just be benefitial to people. Again, we are not forcing 11 year olds in here and it won't be a forum saying how much we love sex. Even though we do

[jordanriane]

LOLZ!!11

It may be nudge towards helping you, but it shows that the community has gone quite well without having the sex subforum.

Why be redundent and create what is essentially a boys/girls locker, without the term "sex" being thrown in there.

[sammi rules you]

i still have just roxanne's reply on my topic, and i sent it to her on AIM.

probably because the people going there aren't comfortable with discussing it.

but..wouldn't it be great if there was a place where people could discuss it, and those who don't want to wouldn't have to read it?

also, i see no immaturity in my topic either..so i don't see how it would encourage more immaturity.

[*AngelicEyz00*]

Anyone remember the Pictures forum and how it was infested with manipulated pictures - digital art? We created a whole new forum for these types of things, to make things more organized; to differentiate between personal pictures and blends, vectors, manipulations, etc.

Yeah, lost of sex topics have already been created. If we had a new subforum for "Sex", these sex topics can easily be moved into the new forum. Afterwards, new topics can be created which pertain to sex.

I see nothing wrong

SEX

KEKE

[jordanriane]

touchmymonkey, to be honest, there are some topics I've seen that get surpassed merely because it doesn't seem to interest people, or sometimes people are just too damn lazy to reply to it--the last response is me personally speaking, as I do that alot with topics in the relationship forum.

Oh, and the immaturity comment I made (if you were referring to mine specifically) wasn't towards you, but rather in general.

[*tweeak*]

i don't see why they shouldn't go in girl/boys lockers. i also don't see why you care if people start saying things about pg-13. yes, it should be pg-13 and it wouldn't have been an issue if it hadn't been important for things to be appropriate in the past. if it wasn't appropriate to ask questions about maturbation then, it won't be now, either. sammi, if you want to ask about what you should do, i see no reason why you shouldn't do so, because it is about your relatiionship with your boyfriend

I think using "sex," is too specific. Most would immediately think of the act of sex. Maybe it's the title that's been suggest for a new subforum that gets the negative feedback on it.

I think it would be more appropriate to possibly just go back to the classroom and give it the title "sex education," that way it would actually fit moreso, as opposed to just the title 'sex.'


I think with what I just said, I wouldn't mind seeing a subforum for what we've been discussing, but since not everyone is... mature/of age, it would just make sense for it to say "sex eduation," or something in that vicinity.

[*AngelicEyz00*]

Oh yeah, for sure. Sex Education sounds perfectly fine. Or maybe even Sexual Health.

SEX

KEKE

[sammi rules you]

i don't really care what it's called, i'd just like it to be there.

exactly...xxcrazyjewxx, you say that people have more "detailed" questions about sex, but wouldn't that make the forum NOT pg-13?

And what the hell kind of questions WOULD people ask? "what's the best sex position?" ... "any tips?" Wtf...no. that's unnecessary. And i know for a fact that people will spam in it or go over the edge with the type of topics/replies they create.

that sounds a lot better to me.. "sex" by itself just makes it too... i don't know. inappropiate? not pg13? i still think it's a little too narrow of a topic, but oh well. i don't think i'll be upset if this forum is created now, though i still think an advice abby kind of thread would be better.

uh, i suggested a topic that would be made there, did you read it?

[*AngelicEyz00*]

That's why this particular forum will be for MATURE cBers only. The mature ones who actually want to take part in this forum. Perhaps you're mature, but you don't want to associate yourself with the sex forum. That's fine, it's not like you have to anyway. Some people, however, are mature and would like to discuss certain issues which pertain to sex - like Sammi's topic.

And who are you to say it's unnecessary? I'm not saying it is necessary, but it would be beneficial to us and certainly something to consider.

SEX

KEKE

[*xcaitlinx*]

uh, i suggested a topic that would be made there, did you read it?

oh, i guess not..

definition of pg-13:

Rough or persistent violence is absent; sexually-oriented nudity is generally absent; some scenes of drug use may be seen; one use of the harsher sexually derived words may be heard.

(taken from the "let's keep this pg-13" topic in the girls'/boys' locker rooms)

So, basically, a sex forum would cross the line anyway...even if you DID put a limit on what was said there.

[*AngelicEyz00*]

Enter at your own risk. Mature audiences only. Don't like it? Don't enter. Pretend it doesn't even exist. kthx.

SEX

KEKE

[*xcaitlinx*]

Tell that to a 12 year old, and they'll do the complete opposite.

[racoons > you]

look. either we need the sex forum, or the mods need to be less stringent in what is considered to be PG-13

if sammis topic had been posted in the boy's locker (i dunno why it would be, possibly to ask a guy, but go with it), 23478 people would have had hysterics, and it would have been closed more or lexss instantly.

sex is a part of life, and people have questions about it. dont punish responsible members by denying them a forum on account of what MIGHT happen. if it goes out of control, it can just as easily be closed

all the speculation about immaturity is just that. why not give it a TRY?
