I tend to agree with Liz on this one. The comment thread was chauvanistic
and assumed a (straight) male audience. It wasn't so much about marrying
strippers as it was about commissioning their services while married. This
is, of course, anyone's choice, but this is a mixed-sex forum, after all
(or at least we'd certainly like it to be).
Another example:
http://blog.cbcg.net/articles/2007/07/17/assholes-qsol-com
Can you imagine a woman seeing that ad and then buying stuff from them?
P.S. Actually, I hadn't noticed this before, but the image I linked to for
this is hosted on Liz's server ;-) Apparently, she's already seen it.
