I don't want to throw a spanner in the works or be seen as a nit-picker as I do appreciate the idea of female chat. But honestly I'm 72 and female and stopped being a girl 50 odd years ago. Language does matter and you will notice in the original discussion about this topic each time the male sex is mentioned words like fellas or men are used, never boys. I hope I don't upset anyone by this comment but I just couldn't let it go by.

You'll have to blame me jardinière .. it's my fault .. I am older than you but have never considered myself a 'lady'.
Perhaps that's a subject for discussion in the Women Only group.

I dont mind if any of you call me Boy, I will be flattered.
I suspect once you have your own place some of the hitherto unused names will surface.

I’m older than Jardinière and maybe Sue too - I’ve never thought of myself as a girl, but don’t mind which ‘title’ I’m given - maybe not ‘hey you’ though! 😃

I'm not as old as all you ladies , but calling men, boys, I find a little bit patronising. Those ladies that think that, think all men act like boys? As an after thought , I suppose that we all return to whence we came ?

I love being called a girl. Me too. But only by the Scoutmaster.

I support a sub-section for all things female, but am not adverse to it being viewed by all as I wouldn't like to be excluded from a similar section for all things male. If I wasn't interested in a topic, I could scroll on by.

According to Sue56 it's a newly created section, if so then it is not visible to all, maybe it won't appear until there are posts.
Will contributions to that section come up on "Active Topics"?
I was wondering what our dear departed Mark would have done? I think he would have been for it if there were members who wanted it, I'm sure I recall him speaking out on another forum about not wanting to see a closed private clique but he proactively created the Chat section of this forum which was visible only to those who signed up for it.
