Are some subjects or avenues of thought off limits?

sigh

I'm going to close this thread.

I did hope that I wouldn't have to do this a second time.

You see we have a lot of ladies that are members of this community.

We are lucky to have them.

Perhaps they belong to pipe and drum bands,

Perhaps they are Highland Athletes,

Maybe they have an interest and appreciation of their Scottish heritage,

Or maybe they enjoy the solid construction and handsome looks of the kilt.

Regardless, they are part of this community.

And we are glad to have them here!

This entire discussion is not very polite, friendly, or respectful to them.

We have had it before and nothing really comes of it , save hurt feelings.

So I am going to close it.

Everything has a price, the price of civility is sometimes silence.

Perhaps there is something we can talk about that includes everyone here on XMTS.

Respectfully

Jamie
