It isn't necessary to "understand" each other...Sometimes the differences are so great that it is impossible to understand ...The important thing is to "be aware" that the differences exist and to accept and respect each other, despite our differences...no matter how different we are

If there are threads about women, then in interest of equality there should be a guys in horror thread.

Sure, knock yourself out. But remember that the ONLY reason there is a women in horror thread is because there are so few important female roles in horror films. There is really no need for a men in horror thread because most of the significant roles in horror are played by, well, MEN. Get it?

sure, but actualy, I wasn't speaking about gender equality when I said it made no sense to have a men in horror thread. I just meant the forum itsself is primarily about men. Because most of the monsters are men. Its called practicality. Aparently you failed to read my "Fat people and the pie" story.

but the topics aren't exclusive to being about men. There are 2 topics that are about women. Not a character or characters that happen to be women, but women. "Horror chicks" and "How are women represetned in slasher movies?" (paraphrasing, obviously). That a lot of the characters are men, and that there are threads about them, do not mean that the threads are about men. Is a thread about Freddy about men? No. It's about a particular man, just as a thread about, say, Sadako/Samara isn't about women. There are threads about women that are specifically made for conversing about women. One about women horror characters and one about how they are represented in slasher movies. If you are for gender equality, then you have nothing to complain about that there is a thread about guys in horror.


Star Trek isn't horror, though.

When did I say anything about Star Trek?

it was said in response to Kahn being brought up.

Now, lets get back to the subject.
