Female forum?

Would you like too see a female forum on Google Community, please vote, thank you!

This idea originated from our respected member cvrk3:

you can not stop males cloaking as females, or the vie versa and let us bear with it! only controversy i perceive that it will become a dating forum, but still let us give it a try!!

A female forum?? what would that be? A forum only for females, a forum for female topics, something else? I don't see any use for a female forum right now. Perhaps a female topic would be a good start to see if there is really something to talk about. If it turns out to be a succes a forum could be later added. (I'm a bit afraid it will be another of those forums we have that nobody uses, and is only because it looked like a good idea).

Tokkolo,
I never meant that the forum should be only for females but the topic should be female oriented. You can observe the perspective from both the sides.
I do agree that the confusion arose because of indians forum.I do not contribute to the view that it is meant only for indians,but meant for indian topics. In such a way, the community can get focussed views and exchange of ideas.
by the way, cat, i could not understand your statment it is a draw! you have voted for yes and next i also voted for yes, then how can be there a draw?

I'd say no too. Isn't this rather sexist?

Not really because it not a forum just for females as cvrk3 said but more of a forum to give females a change to show there true selves and show us that they are no different than us males and can do anything we can and sometimes even better.

Also it would be great to listen to what females have to say about things as there opinion is as much valued as us males.
