True, but how much humour nowadays isn't something-ist? Look at Little Britain...

How many goths does it take to screw in a lightbulb? None, they just sit in the dark and cut themselves.
Did anyone find that offensive? It is Goth-ist....
Whilst I understand where you are coming from, I think you should just take it as a light hearted comment that wasn't intended to offend....

I am someone who thinks that the UK has become too PC to a certain extent and im sure we have all laughed at jokes that we perhaps shouldnt have. But the comments made werent neccesary hun and that point still stands, maybe there needs to be an Un - PC thread for people to work it out there systems lol
I think Kat's point was that whether it was meant to be offensive (which I agree it probably wasn't), it still was. If someone made an "offhand" racist joke, meant entirely innocently, I don't think we'd have the same "but it's just some crazy funtime" attitude. Anyway, you get my point: what's the difference between gender and race that makes it okay to be flippant about women? I'm not on a crusade, but this has taken my interest as a debate. I personally enjoy a good lapdance, but I charge more than 20 quid and sometimes I might cry. It's the only way I can afford to play.

for me the comment wasn't offensive, i just dont think its right coming from a Mod
while they are (for the most part) regular users granted certain powers. they are still the authoritive figures here on P8nt.
They are representitives of both P8ntballer.com and PGI and so by association the Publishers too.
I kind of get what your saying Kitty Kat but he did say I am being a ****, so you can see there is humor there. If Glen had just said his comment (wont quote it for fear of death) then I can understand why you would be upset.
But you do have a point about mods setting an example, except........ well Glen is my special boy!
