  For proper mindset on this board just imagine you walked into a biker bar... and the ones who are smart bikers are smart asses.

  mdb2203 you got issues, man. Just let it all slide. The less you care, the better off you'll be as member.

  Reading this tells me this guy rarely (if ever) associates with civilian women. He’s very needy, and civilian women won’t spend their time with him.
  
  His depiction of how he spends time with women makes him sound like a total creep!

  And now I think I know what you tried to say to me
  How you suffered for your sanity
  How you tried to set them free.
  They would not listen
  They're not
  List'ning still
  Perhaps they never will.

  It’s not that we can’t be adults. When you make a statement like that and proceed w a lecture, it’s like you ate assuming that you are the only man here who doesn’t need a lecture ab respecting women. I honestly feel the same way when females do it. I get irritated at poledancer’s “listen up strippers,” rants but I know she’s sweet and doesn’t mean it that way.
  
  If you want to open up a discussion, present it as a discussion, and not a lecture. You seem like a nice guy, but it really did come off as arrogant.

  "While I am not going to apologise for my previous topic I will apologise for not knowing my audience. I thought we could all be adults and discuss some serious topics but I was wrong and I apologize for that."
  
  ^ Translation -> I'm not really sorry about anything. You all are immature.

  Lions never apologize.
  
  Lions go all wildebeest on those who expect an apology.
  
  Do you expect an apology?
  
  I didn't think so. ROAR!

  BJ99 I saw your point and that's why I did this. I hope people think I am a nice guy. That is always my goal. As far as everyone who likes to name call and say other things. It really doesn't matter what you say or think of me tonight because as of now I am standing on top of the world. I have the BEST support team and people who really care about me are always there for me. I am broken but I am okay. Nothing can bring me down tonight.

  Mdb nobody here doubts you are a nice guy. You dont have to prove that beyond what you stated. The question is what are you looking for here in your posts? Validation? I think that was done, its great for you. Now what?
  
  Post a question, maybe a fun story others will enjoy, engage your audience. We love women too, look at that! Something in common. But you better have thick skin on some of the responses. There is allot of locker room talk in here soo as they say...man up. Hey, You might learn something too.

  I am always thinking about story ideas. I write stories each day. Mostly for work as I work in Social Media and for a Morning Show. I also write a lot of stories about my life mostly because of the hell I've been through but how people have reached out to me to make me a better person. When I stated I was on top of the world I got a phone call from my favorite person. I had my first cancer treatment today prior to Surgery next month and with her working tonight she wanted to see how it went. Nothing can bring me down after that phone call. I honestly feel like the luckiest person on earth. So again I may not always be perfect but I try to fit in and will try harder as well.

  Mdb, I'm sorry about all your health problems. However, you have to remember this is a strip club forum inhabited mostly by guys, and guys will give you shit. Don't take it personally.

  You may be a nice guy - and I’m sorry you have cancer - but you are definitely very needy and self centered. The last thing I need is a lecture from a creepy dude on a strip club website! (No offense Founder!)

  @mdb2203 if you have cancer, I’m sorry to hear that, but if you really want to be a nice guy, and fit in the locker room don’t patronize us with lectures or feeling sorry for yourself. Nobody here want to deal with the Debbie Downer shit.

  I always try to find interesting topics but sometimes I take things to heart when my friends are hurt so I write how I feel. I should have taken the one from the other night and kept it private rather than put it on here. I will try to do a better job.

  Sorry you have cancer. It stinks.
  
  If you want to be active here, I don’t think your difficulties are topic so much as tone. Strip clubs and a website about them are escapist. I come here to act like a horny dumbfuck. I don’t come here for serious introspection. If your tone is strident, over sensitive and lecturing, it’s just not going to work here. You’re as welcome here as I or anyone else is and you do need to “know your audience”. But it’s not a good idea to expect a group to be a different audience that you’d like to engage in a different way.
  
  Hope your cancer treatments go well.

  If it’s more of an article, you can always post it there. I think lecture type stuff, goes over better that way, and ppl still comment.

  Bj99 makes a good point. We don’t need lectures here in the first place. But if you think you need to post some patronizing and lengthy lecture - put it in the articles. Remember to use punctuation -
• Bj99

  I think articles might appeal more to lurkers too, since it’s hard for someone who isn’t a regular contributor to follow some of these discussions, so if you really want to tell the world, articles are better.

  Flagooner - I agree. But since I don’t read the articles - I support it! His long winded posts - with no punctuation - aren’t discussions.

  Here’s what seems odd to me - this guy posts that he was the victim of an online scam - but he says he works in social media? How can a guy work in social media - and not be aware of these online scams? This is a major inconsistency - and it points to trolling and a desire for attention!

  There is nothing wrong with this OP. I agree with what he is saying. People who are trying to give him a hard time, just because he maybe speaks in a little bit different sort of a tone, are just being jerks. TUSCL has no shortage of such jerks, but I still have the worst of them on ignore because they are not worth replying to.

  mdb: You seem like a good guy who just wants to express himself. I, too, think tone is important. I don't think this is all just about not understanding your audience. It seems pretty clear that this writing is therapeutic for you, and you're being a bit self-indulgent. Or, to put it another way, you're doing some mental and emotional masturbation, and finding that we're not happy you're using us as your tube sock. We're not here to be your tube sock, man. We're here to be the guy who puts itching powder into your tube sock.

  Subra, I disagree, our OP is just expressing himself, no different from anyone else. He does seem to come from a bit of a different place, but that is what can make a forum like this more interesting. If you don't like to read his posts, then just don't. But no reason to make oppositional posts.

  Hey that's right. And I hope people believe that, just like some believed that I was @cold'n'shallow. If they believe that than I know that they are not reading the posts, and so that I shouldn't bother reading theirs either.
  
  I just don't believe in trying to enforce social conformity by using bullying.

  @ SJG, there’s nothing wrong w the op’s point of view, or him expressing himself. The issue is that his attention getting title, “stop hurting women!” Is confrontational and assumes at the audience is hurting women. Besides that tho, he can take a confrontational tone if he wants, but should expect comments in turn.
• Bj99

  This thread is about exactly the concern of the op. If he has an issue w how ppl reacted to his thread and started a thread ab just that, I don’t see why we shouldn’t make suggestions and offer insight as to why he may have been taken differently than he’d hoped.
• san_jose_guy

  Bj99, I don't think our OP's thread title was directed against this forum or its members. I read it as a general commentary about the kind of thing which has surfaced about the entertainment industry and the political sphere as this last year was ending.

  I do think many members of this forum have an anti-feminist position. I do not agree with this. But if they reacted against our OP's post title, I think this is the reason.
  
  As I have always seen it, anti-feminism is completely misinformed.
