Is there a Dad/Guy section or a want for it? No offence to all you wonderful mommies and gals out there. I'm a member on a lot of automotive boards and some have a girl/powder puff sections in a mostly male dominated site to give them a place to chit-chat.

I looked around but I didn’t see one, if I’m blind can someone point me in the right direction!!

Sorry, been out a couple of days.
I'm not against it - my personal concerns are:
1> There aren't enough dads on here to make it informative enough.
2> Many of the 'guy' issues I have I frankly wouldn't feel comfortable discussing here, sorry.
3> There'd be no way to make it guys only without ultimately alienating the 'gals' - that may be a chauvenistic pig thing to say, but that's my opinion.
You are certainly welcome to PM any of the guys I know on this board with anything on your mind. . . I've gotten some great support from a couple of them, over the years. Most of that has been kinda personal for me, though.
That's my opinion.

I think the problem is the lack of guys. There are only a few of us. Having a place to shoot the breeze and discuss guy things like the Super Bowl (is that sexist enough?) may not be a bad idea but are there enough of us to make it worth while?

Jeff I was referring to a guy section to talk about cars, sports, hunting and such. Not exclusive to guys just typical guy stuff. I feel if I were to post in shoot the breeze it would get burried by other post and the post may just go away. I'm not saying there aren't gals that enjoy these topics just not as much. But I agree there arn't many guys to support another section.

Thanks for the replys!!!
