I was warned about the R&P forum and posted a few things years back just to say I did it. I'm actually nervous to voice my opinion because of not being at the computer for long periods of time to defend or explain or have someone add light to my post on this topic. It's easier to lurk and nod my head and smile with agreement to many other's comments and perspectives for this one.
How about basing some rules off of:
What OO is about. Really and truly all about.
Focusing on the membership who are mainly adults. (Yes, I know the majority are men but don't these men have daughters? Which leads me to the next possible rule consideration.)
Respect for others and their workplace and home life.

I have become more skilled in writing and comprehension because of OO. Interactions with others, making friends, and learning about things from all over the world with people with vast knowledge or at least familiarity on many topics. I don't want to see
multiple topics NSFW for a myriad of reasons (many have been brought up numerous times). I am getting creeped out. The latest is extremely questionable because there have been other areas to post pictures and the addition doesn't feel
right to me. As a woman, when it doesn't feel
right, there is something off and it makes me uncomfortable.

Eventhough, I believe I understand the point you are attempting to make. This comment is what pushed me to post about not feeling comfortable.
Telling ya all... hitting submit on this is a tough one but I'm not happy hepcat is gone and feel if I posted a few times, maybe I could have made a difference in the outcome. So much easier to stay silent then to stand up for sure.
