    Ladies, do you mind men reading your journals?

    I realize that they are on a public forum, but sometimes when I read them, I think women would prefer that only women read them... Anyway, for me, I need 100% immersion in Atkins to make it work. I am rather obsessive / compulsive in my life, in many things. That's why I have so many posts in such a short time of being an ADBB member.

    But if anybody prefers that I don't read theirs, just shoot me a PM... and I'll stay away. ( and not be offended )

    Hope ya'll don't mind.

    Umm, I don't see why any of us would mind. I mean, you do it at your own risk, ya' know... :P

      I'm obsessive/compulsive also -- understand what you are saying 100%. I'm so bad I alphabetize everything (my spices, canned goods, everything in a drawer is alphabetized, clothes are sorted by order, length of sleeve or pant leg, etc)......I think we all understand that there are men on the board who may come across various posts....if someone doesn't want something read it shouldn't be public.

        Hey...if you can put up with the hormones some days...have at it Papa D!

        I have no problems with you posting in or reading my journal.

        Its refreshing to see a man posting so much on the ADBB...at least for me it is.

        Lately you and Griz have made your contributions to the male population of the ADBB...

        I'm a bit OCD myself.

                      Hey Papa,
                      We're here to support one another so go ahead and support me all you want! and I'll try to do the same. I don't think I ever post much 'girlie' stuff. Oh wait, there's the shopping, hair problems, freakouts about my son joining the marines, and other assorted girl perspectives. But I think we all have to be aware about what we post being public information. It's very gentlemanly of you to ask. We all learn from each other. I'll also try not to get mad at you for losing fast than me. ha!

                        Well, I may be a guy, but I do have a lot more to lose... for now it SHOULD be easier.
