Could someone tell me what is allowed in net.women and what is allowed
in net.women.only? Perhaps we should appoint someone unofficial moderator.
They would kludge together cancel messages for unworthy messages and/or
chastise those who dare submit their ideas wrongly.
Any volunteers for official watchdog? amd70!phil??

My vote for a "rule" pertaining to submissions is that no-one should be allowed to mock a question asked by someone else. Many of the issues that are going to be discussed in this group may seem "frivolous" or stupid, and there may be issues introduced by women who are insecure about disscussing(sp?) things in public (i.e., in front of men). I think that it's fair to request forbearance on the part of the male readers. Don't just attack your keyboard when you encounter a subject that "bugs" you. If you have something truly constructive to add, I'm sure no-one minds if you add it in a polite manner. But if you take it upon yourself to be a critic, don't be surprised if you are turned on and told "It's none of your business, so Shut Up and BUTT OUT!" So much for that. Now I'll get things started with a "fashion hint" I don't know about the rest of you, but one of my pet peeves is pantyhose. If you get the cheap kind, they look awful, and if you get the kind that look good, they run as soon as you put them on (only a mild exageration). So, if you have the kind of job that requires you to wear pantyhose (thank the Godess, I don't) , this one came from Heloise via Ann Landers (what can I say, she's next to the comics...). As soon as you get the panty hose, while they're still in the package, put them in the freezer. Leave them in at least 24 hours (a little longer won't hurt 'em). Then take them out of the freezer and out of the package and wash them with mild soap (i.e., the way you normally would). At this point, they should be practically run-proof (not snag-proof, unfortunately). I treated some pantyhose like this, then danced without shoes for a couple of hours in them, THEN caught them on a rose bush. Nary a run did I get. A minor snag from the thorns, but that was easily (if carefully) eased out. And I'm the type of woman who only has to wear a pair of nylons once to have huge holes in them everywhere (careless, clumsy, I don't know. Maybe it's rebellion against the dictates of fashion). If you're tired of single-handedly supporting the entire L'eggs(tm) corporation, this may help ease the strain on your pocket book.

I find it fascinating that the first message (at our site) of
net.women.only is from a man.
Ken Arnold
P.S. Obviously, now, so is the second. But I promise that it's my
last interjection in this group. I don't think I support the idea,
but if it's here, I, for one, will certainly not interfere in the
experiment.
