I don't get why they think those comments are creepy. And no one has given me an explanation. Like I said before, this is a discussion of psychology. I don't want to stop people from expressing themselves. In fact, that is kind of what I have been ranting against here. I just want to understand a behavior that seems completely illogical.

Are you daft? If someone says something along the lines of "Oh yeah i'd love for him to stuff that cock in my ass so I could ride him all night long", you don't think that's creepy? I don't really think it's creepy, I just think it's childish. I can't really assume that an adult would type something like that. But the consensus here is that that is creepy, and stuff like that shouldn't be said.

Absolutely, but that is beside the point.

Why should I think it is creepy, when you just said that you don't?

I can look at a Lamborghini Aventador and say, "Wow that is a beautiful car. I really wish I had one of those." Is that childish?

Calling strangers on the internet kids because they don't think like you do...real classy.

For a brief moment, I thought I might actually be able to have a serious discussion/debate. So thanks for that.

Whenever did you think I cared about what you thought?

Instead of bitching about how your comment got downvoted, go change your threshold in your settings. Then you can go see ALL the things that were downvoted and you'll never have to see the horrible 'downvoted' message again.

We already explained it to you. You just refuse to acknowledge the reasoning as valid.

When I assumed that you were a decent, logical human being. Thanks for returning the favor.

I addressed that in the op.

Read back to where I said that the general consensus is that it's creepy. And even though I just think it's childish, I still feel the same way most people here feel: that shit needs to stop.

Don't you ever talk down on a man's dreams you bastard.

I don't mean to sound like a smart-ass, but I don't think you did. You guys said, "keep it to yourself," which does nothing to answer my question.


JMay, why don't you just set your comment threshold to -100 and move on? That way you can see all the comments you want.

But that would be easy and wouldn't allow him the satisfaction of 'victory'.

Uh-oh. I've struck a nerve.

They really are gorgeous though, aren't they.

I'll be honest, until this forum post, I did not know that was a feature. But as I have said multiple times, the fact that they get voted down is nothing more than a symptom of the problem: the lunacy of being creeped out by a sexual comment on a site that is mostly pornographic.

You just try so hard, don't you.

Well, I'm very sorry, but it's not going to change. You're just going to have to get over it.

Hate to get further off-topic, but "just deal with it" never got humanity anywhere. Asking questions is just what I do.

Humanity? On this site? Should've made that left turn at Albuquerque.

The administrators aren't going to change the site's policies because you don't like them. You may not think "deal with it" gets you anywhere, but in the end, that is still the route you're left with. Save yourself the grief.

Where do you guys keep getting this idea? Methinks you all heave read way to deeply into my op. I don't presume to be superior, or to have the only opinion that matters. What's wrong with asking about something that seems completely fucked up to me?

You're really starting to sound like a bad troll to me.

We've explained it to you multiple times and linked you to the rules of the site. You refuse to accept these things as valid. We do not allow these comments because they are gross. Plain and simple. Comment blacklisting based on content is not currently an option as it is with images, so we cannot simply say "blacklist creepy commenters if you don't like them." The comments must be moderated.

That's the reason. There doesn't have to be a deep philosophical or psychological explanation for everything.

Disagree all you want, it's not going to change site policy.

Listen to her JMay, this topic is going nowhere, gather what little dignity you have left, and bury the hatchet.

Nothing is wrong with asking. Refusing to accept the answer is where you get stuck in the weeds.

You wish. I'm not letting you off that easy.

I'm being dead serious here. "they are gross" is an opinion, not an explanation. I don't need you to spell that out for me. I know that people think those type of comments are gross. That is what brought me to this post. And it does nothing to address why you think they are creepy.

Now, please don't misread this part. I'm not just hammering you on your opinion for the hell of it. The reason I am asking this question with such fervor is the fact that a sexually driven comment matches a pornographic image. Why is that comment creepy? The image should also be creepy, shouldn't it?

Looking at the image does not automatically expose me to the reaction of everyone else who looked at it.

Thank you. Now we are getting somewhere.

If the image is something you enjoy seeing, something you have a sexual attraction toward, then why is someone with the same attraction a creep just because they express it? They are only saying what you are thinking. I refuse to believe that intellectual germaphobia is normal.

The last comment is not necessary. You're asking for a ban from Null. Please, by my stuffed parts, just accept that people are who they were, we're not perfect and peaceful, and this is not that place... Yet...

Why do you assume that every single person who looks at the image will have the same thoughts regarding it?
