I like this idea very very much. My first day here, I had posted a thread where I asked folks to share a fun secret, and I gave some simple examples. I had a couple of new hubskiers post quite graphic and kind of creepy sexual stories. It wasn't what I was expecting, and though I'm not a prude by any means and have certainly "been there done that" as a rather bohemian chick in my late 40s, it was still a bit unnerving, so I deleted the thread because I didn't know what else to do. It was obvious that others weren't participating because the conversation quickly escalated to such a nature.

And yes, I SHOULD HAVE REALIZED it would go that way! Ha! Duh! But, I didn't, and had this cute idea that we would talk about the roads not taken or the flowers we secretly left on someone's grave. (Yes, I'm such a "mom.")

Of course, now that I am typing this and thinking more about it, I am wondering if this is a good idea. Maybe someone would delete my comment simply because they found me annoying, even if what I said added to the conversation. And yeah, I'm human so maybe I would do that to someone, too. It's complicated. Maybe, now that I really get my brain wrapping around this, the trick - for me, anyway - is to be a better thread crafter. If you ask a question and someone simply answers it, which is what those young men did, then the fault doesn't sit with the honest answer, I guess it does sit with the not-quite-though-out question.

Argh. End of the day and I am going to get a shot of whiskey! I will keep thinking.
