In this particular case none of the mods (all men) found the image offensive, but the other women I spoke to about it did.  My observation was based on that very limited sample.

I don't think it's offensive, distasteful, I'll give you, but we're not here to be the taste police (if we were most of Kev's shirts & Tikay's hairdo would be banned).

Claire, it isn't like another female hasn't been considered for Mod. I know for a fact that I have been seriously put forward for the job, also I have been told that I would be perfect for the role (By Tikay himself and other Mods) I can say I would have loved to do it. Unfortunately due to his Royal Flushiness seeming to have a deep desire to get into the secret room, I have been told that I can't.

So, it isn't just as easy as who would be suited and want to, there are MANY other considerations too.

I didnt mean to start any trouble by asking the queation in this thread , and to be honest i cant see what all the fuss is about.
Simple question from a simple person wanting a simple answer , which Tighty gave me 

Guess it took the heat off of the p4c thread

To return to Claw's point about the avatar, we recently had another complaint made about a different avatar (which I personally thought was very pleasant to look at, but some females did not!)  However, after some consultation, the collective view of the mods was that this was worthy of removal (and don't forget Kev is part of this group!)

Therefore, I think its unfair to say that we apply any male bias to these decisions.

Also, don't forget that Jen has access to the Mods board, although her role on blonde is not strictly that of a Moderator.  I'm sure she would make herself heard if she thought we were getting out of line!

OK... Not sure how to put this, but:

If

1. Blonde needs more mods, and

2. there's a person whom everyone agrees (including the existing mods) would be an asset to Blonde and a great addition to the moderating team, and

3. said person actually wants the job,

then

why should she be denied the opportunity based on who her boyfriend/husband/partner is?

To me, that seems... kind of, well, wrong.
