[blessed]

ok have a look at it general discussion forum--->great graphics--->Post #98

[Babyruth]

I think it's because they are told not too, it's too tempting. I guess they need to work on that, because if they can't resist this temptation, what can they resist? jk!

[MariaJoy]

*ack* *blush*

[marichino_freedom]

well, maybe they'll actually learn something about girls....and we wont be such a "mystery" anymore! (just a dream, I know....)

[NeedGod]

learn something, noooooo, they should not learn anything about how much we weigh or anything else. STAY OUT BOYS, STAY OUT!!!

[collegegirl]

Hmmm.....:think: A code of honor....?! *raises eyebrow*

[blessed]

code of honor ????? that does not go in the same sentence with boys they are loyal amongst themselves only

[marichino_freedom]

no, what i meant was they are always saying girls are so confusing and they never know what any of us mean (generally speaking) and blah blah blah....and that maybe they would find out that we are not such a strange species after all...

[blessed]

ohhhh..... i think i see it but its the wee hours of the morning and i am sleepy so i will have to read that post again

[NeedGod]

yeah marichino, i think that is why they come in here, to unravel the mystery that is woman. ha, now i am enlightened

[collegegirl]

Well, I have heard it put that girls will stick together no matter what, but guys will divide over a girl. Oh, and BTW, want to know about that crazy comment of Samurai's?

[NeedGod]

Please operate under the assumption that any guy could come into this forum and read anything he likes. It is the forum moderator's (collegegirl's) duty to ensure that nothing is said that may be sensitive or inappropriate for a guy to read.

Providing this "girl talk" environment to you is a privilege - please do not misuse it or misunderstand it. It is not a secure haven like you might create in real life. Enjoy the girl only fellowship, but please use discretion.

***Please understand that I have to step in and say these things because if anything goes wrong, it's my head that's gonna roll. My carcass will be the one rolled out on Sunday morning and preached against - not yours. God bless and please continue to enjoy these forums.

Eww, there's a gruesome thought.

[NeedGod]

joe c, you are allowed to read these forums, but only you.only because you are overlord here. and because you have been of such great help to me, i cant thank you enough. keep praying for me.

[Mark]

are guys allowed in this part?

[chocolateismybestfriend]

HAHA MARK - so subtle

[Blood Washed Bride]

So because Joe has helped you out personally, namwacha, he is now allowed to access the private thoughts of all the girls? :think: LoL J/k This thing is not that private anyway.

Well, Mark, the current trend of thought is that guys should not be allowed in here at all. However, we can't exactly stop you. Joe has stated that guys are not to post in here. This is strictly for the girls. Go start your own thread. :tongue:

Oh dear............no commets!!!!!

I talked to my Husband about this and he was very upset. Brothers in the Church are to help us and hold us accountable. If there is anthing really private you need to talk about talk to your Parents, Pastor or a Sister in your home church, do not post it on the internet. if you feel like talking to a sister in the threads about something private, just send a private message. I'm happy Ben (Samauri) uses this forum. I trust him to be looking out for my best interest and not take advantage of the situation to emberass anyone.

[All4Jesus]

I totally agree. I would never post anything private on the internet. I talk to my mum or my sisters on things like that. It's just that sometimes you completely forget you're on the net and get into a real girl talk spirit forgeting that guys can access it and ye you are on the internet

[Sara]

Hmmm...

I'm thinking of a change of screen name.

Hehehe...

I used to come here a lot before what i call "the change..."

Not alot of people used to post, but i was one of those faithful few that did...

:)

Then... the change happened. and i got lost. I didn't know where to go.

BUT I'M BACK! YES!

So, now guys come in here. Man. What are we gonna do now?

:ranting:

[Babyruth]

Joe could fix it up so that only girls can get into here. Don't you answer whether you are male or female when signing up? If yes, then he could make it so only girls could go into it. However, guests could still see in, hmmm. I guess we'll just have to make sure not to say anything innappropriateor anything we wouldn't want our natural brothers or dads to hear.

[JoeC]

Because you are inviting me to post here, I will. While I don't see anything wrong with a guy reading these posts, we do still want to keep it girl-only posting.

Now, to answer your question, I will post a copy of the e-mail I sent collegegirl after she requested a password protected forum:

I hear what you are saying about wanting to have closed "girl talk." However, what you say about sharing the heart unnerves me a little. If the girls on the forum got the mentality "this won't go past these forum walls," then someone is inevitably going to share too much with strangers. I think having it open to the public keeps it within reasonable bounds - isolation will only encourage indiscretion. One heart broken, one secret slipped, one person getting in there and saying things they shouldn't say about themselves, or one guy pretending to be a girl just to take advantage [of] someone's heart will taint our image.


Sincerely,
Josiah Cornett


To expound, please remember that even though you may feel you know the sisters on here, they are regardlessly strangers. Given that, even if this were a truly girl-only forum (in the sense that only girls could access it), saying something that would be revealing part of your heart, or saying something a guy shouldn't read, would still be indiscreet because you are saying it to strangers.

In Titus 2:5 (http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Titus%202:5;&version=9;), women are specifically warned to be discreet. A few definitions for you:

Discreet (http://dictionary.reference.com/search?r=8&q=discreet): Marked by, exercising, or showing prudence and wise self-restraint in speech and behavior; circumspect.

Circumspect (http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=circumspect): Heedful of circumstances and potential consequences; prudent.

Please don't assume that everyone online is a trusted friend. People make this mistake all the time on Xanga. Your audience might be good people - but, for example, maybe one has a problem with gossip. You wouldn't necessarily know these things by talking to them online.

This is where being heedful of potential consequences comes in. This really is something that is on my heart. I see a lot of indiscretion online - especially among young sisters using the internet as a emotional vent. It tears at my heart; think, secrets create a bond. If a girl is creating a bond with any online passer-by (male or female), like a piece of tape, that bonds gets weaker each time it is pulled off and given to someone else. What kind of bond are these people going to be able to offer their close friends or even their future husbands?

This is why I don't want to even allow opportunity for indiscretion on these forums. This is partly why we have moderators review every thread and every post that comes in.

The final word on this issue is this: the girl's only forum is girl's only in word alone. The moderators and I will try to keep the guys from posting here; but, again, be aware that they are allowed to read what you post - you have an audience.

God bless and please continue to enjoy these forums in moderation.

Sincerely,
Josiah Cornett

I really appreciate you coming in and talking with us about this. (Do you feel kindof like a guest speaker? :D ) I would have to say that I totally agree. There are things that shouldn't be said on the site. I wouldn't have a conversation with my best friend on here, (even though I love this site to death) because of what we talk about, and secrets and things that all girls have. The things that we talk about are too personal to be read by everyone here on the site, even though I love you all too.

That is a really good analogy that was used about the tape. I try to think about it also this way: If I expect my husband to save himself and his emotions and everything to me, and keep his standards high for me, shouldn't I do the same for him? Would you like for him to know that every guy knows the deepest secrets of your hearts, and there is nothing left to share with him? Also, satan looks for the little cracks, the weaknesses, and pokes at them, and makes them weaker, and it is said that a chain is only as strong as it's weakest link. Let's keep this chain strong, and by keeping ourselves strong, we keep the guys strong too, because they are not being tempted to use indescretion and deceit to access the inner beings of our hearts.

I appreciate Josiah feeling this way, and making sure that we are in line and in order, as the Bible says for everything to be done "decently, and in order". So, Josiah, I thank you for your insight, as it probably wouldn't have been thought of if you wouldn't have said anything.

[Babyruth]

I just put a nice post in here and it said it was an invalid link that I followed, so I won't repeat myself, just say that I agree with Joe and collegegirl.
