Does anyone agree with me on this????

Alright I really hate to be a party pooper, but i was just curious to know why the girl's forum always have threads that involve other people's opinion on the females that are involved with cars in some way. Either it's drifting, racing, showing, or just interested in cars, why is it that every other forum is like this???

examples of threads that i'm talking about because i don't know how to put this:
*Girl street racers
*why are boys such babies
*Girls and suped cars
*Girls vs Guys...who takes it?

I think if we stop making these threads so often , then maybe there wont be so much talking shit on the other end of the computer or getting mad at eachother. If it's so important then i think we should open up it's own little section. I just want to beable to talk to guys and girls about cars and other cool things. instead it's always about putting girls down and putting guys down. it's crazy if you ask me

and maybe so is my thread, but i just wanted to let everyone know that i'm tired of just reading these threads and tired of the guys acting like they are better then us girls or the girls acting like they are better then the guys...

Its very true.

Amen. This place is about CARS and RACING, not what color eyes are sexy, what to name a car, and why guys whine. Those are all for off topic discussion. This place (I'm assuming) was supposed to be for all the girls here to and talk about cars and car stuff. Girls seem to post less in the regular forum, so this is a place where they can come to meet other girls with the same interests. Or so I thought.

the import scene is dominated by males. the majority is males. the import secene is gender biased, just like many things in this world. When you intrude on a male dominated sport, organization, culture, you should expect sexism coming. There can be no change, unless you ladies make the change. Dont sink to the opressors level. Rise above, and beat them at their game. Respect comes to those who've earned it. It doesnt come easy, but thats the way it is.

You dont need a cock to win at the tracks.

Lisa Kubo came in at 9.7 secs spanking all the male contenders in houston. Dont you wonder how many guys must have stopped laughing afterwards

She proved that you dont need a cock to win at the sport. Just some skill, a good car, and some confidence.

GREAT WAY TO PUT IT!!! thanks, this is what i'm trying to say! we need to all stop being so against eachother and putting the other sex down all the time and learn from eachother! thats the reason i came on automotiveforums, i need a place to get great advice and pick up a few things. But i couldn't of said it any better then what superbluecivicsi said it

it seems to me that girls in this part do it more. If you go to any other part of this entire website you wont here the males talken as much shit as the girls.

chixSI · #8 09-01-2004, 12:42 PM

I AGREE ONE HUNDRED PERCENT...and that's why i made this forum. i'm just tired of hearing about people's problem with other people when i should be hearing about people's problem with cars...

I think all of you are very right. It should be about racing and cars, not which gender is better and I am saying this even though I did start one of those threads.

Gimme a break! There is always someone who says that. Its not our sport its just that alot more guys like it than girls. No biggie there. If a guy makes a post about "Girls and cars" or "Girl streetracers" then let em. Chances are they are like 17 and don't know what the hell their talking about. Its more or less about the maturity levels of the guys posting the threads. I'll say what i say to everyone complaing about posts. Nobody said you have to read/respond to them and make a big ole debate about it did they? Takes alot less time and effort to just ignore the post someone made than to read all the posts and respond and make matters worse.
I'm a guy and i think its wonderful when i hear of girls who know what their talking about.....i think their should be way more that like to tune/race their own cars! Just ignore the 16 year old immature buttheads that make them posts. They just feel threatend and they'll get over it the 1st time a girl whips his ass in a race!

This is so true. I completely agree with you. Keep on posting like this and you may make a change in this forum, for the better. We need more intelligent people like you in this forum.

well I am a guy. I think it is great when a woman loves there import as much as i do. If you want to build and race, more power to you and if you kick my ass at the track it's cause you were better. Nuff said. I can live with a woman kicking my ass. I think more women should race, and not just be cover girls. But this is just one mans thoughts.

chixSI · #13 09-08-2004, 12:09 PM

okay i agree, but one question to ask everyone, i understand that people think that it's great a female knows and understand cars, but why is it a big deal? So many people make a big fuss and issue out of it and personaly i'm tired of hearing about it. I would like to ignore it, but how can i when half the threads here are on this top and even threads that don't start off with this end up with this topic. I'm mostly going into the other sections, but i would like to enjoy the girls spot with other females (since there aren't many female interested in cars around my area) it's just a thought and i don't want to down anyone, but i want to read things that are worth reading. If anyone thinks i'm blowing this up...tell me to shut up and i'll be on my way! thanks

darkprincess0330 · #14 09-08-2004, 12:58 PM

No you are totally right. The forum needs to be about car related topics not other girly subjects.

mellowboy · #15 09-09-2004, 07:12 PM

I think girls work'n on cars is dOpe! I give'm prOps for that.
