I love the LL, thanks Willravel for putting it in a good light. I have always considered the LL a "safe place". Granted, it's more like a fish bowl since men can read the threads, but it is nice to have a place where I know everyone who posts is a woman. Then when I see their posts elsewhere, I have a bit more of an idea where they're coming from.
Baraka_Guru does have an excellent point about a safe forum in which men can discuss sensitive topics where they do not want female input. Perhaps these can be addressed in "Life" with a Men's Lounge-titled thread.
