The internet filter on my laptop seems to consider this particular thread to be "slimy."

The word has some not so good connotations. Try googling "What makes a website slimy?"

What is wrong that Joy and Justme posted here but won't post on the site designated for them? I know, I know, we shouldn't be trying to segregate the ladies.

They don't bark on command? Go figure!
Maybe they didn't want to be in the spotlight on that topic, and felt they had a choice? Or maybe the thread was just too crowded with everyone else offering opinions, so there was little room for the people originally asked to post?

Especially now, when it is considered 'barking' to answer a question asked of them (us)
There are 20 posts
1 female (I posted 3x, one was an offer to have mine deleted since you implied that crowding was a problem-he was seeking opinions and this is a topic I feel strongly about- modesty (since I hadn't most of my life considered it to the degree the Anabaptists do, and understand where they are at in trying to make these adjustments, we were on the same path)
7 males repsonded- some repeatedly
Perhaps the females believe that the men have this figured out

as far as why ladies haven't posted in the thread that we have been so graciously given?
i'd venture to guess that there are not nearly as many women on here, as were on md. and that most of the conservative/mod conservative women just are not represented on mn at all.
and when the question talks about conservative/mod conservative dress, there's not that many around to actually participate.
(not like men who talk about anything whether it impacts them or not!!)

i don't know that i've got an ax to grind.
i do admit to feeling a bit perturbed when i saw the posting.
i felt like the dog in the middle of the pack that got hit with the stone.
that being said.
