Well unlike some of our younger members, some of us have careers and families. ;-) ;-) I see typing like this on some other sites, I find it just plain lazy.
The more popular this site becomes the more work we mods are having to do to keep the peace. A few members have been banned for their actions, I'm sure there'll be more.

You're right - in fact, being so lazy makes me feel real guilty about not cashing my paycheck from this place.
Oh... wait a minute... :grin:
Moose - try to use less nettalk and Leetspeak, and make our lives a little easier would ya? :) Thanks guy.

Sorry I am equal rights but I aint no panty waste either, I hunt like a man and I dont mind the odd woman hunting but hey! dont paint them as a savior to the continued well being of hunting.:roll:
And no I dont like being lectured to by women..I look at some of the young people today and am amazed they dont freakin wear dresses after being harassed by women for the first 18 yrs of thier lives.
Stick to the bloody subject BUD!
Reading your contributions to this discussion makes me wonder what went wrong in your life that you come across as a woman hater. Why do you come down on everybody speaking favourable of women?
In one aspect you speak of equal rights and then contradict youself by saying you are not a "panty waist".
The reason why society "sucks" has nothing to do with woman but a whole lot with liberal politicans and displaced resposiblity. When you say "lectured" and "harrased" by woman then you must have had real bad experiences in your life that you feel like that about woman. Most of our childhood and young adulthood we are taught by woman, like our mothers and school teachers (most of them woman). This has worked well for thousands of years so where do you get this idea from that it is all the women's fault today -scratches his head in wonderment-.
Seeing a woman, including a wife or girlfriend, as equal partner and not as a cheap housecleaners and personal servants has nothing to with political correctness but a lot more with manners and common respect for others.
I am not painting woman as saviors of our sport but rather as a very welcome addition to our sport and an important asset for the hunting industry. These two aspects, numbers and money, combined give us more strength as as a whole. Besides many hunters enjoy sharing their time afield with someone they love - by far not all woman complain -. I personally know many woman hunters which not only look very attractive but would also kick so many man's butt when it comes to hunting. Here is one as representative for many, Brenda Valentine a noted outdoor writer who has more entries in the trophy books than many, if any including me, on this forum. But not only is she an outstanding hunter, writer and seminar speaker. She also is heavily involved in the hunting community trough chareties and children hunting camps. She has done very likely more to safeguard our heritage then you have done. Plus she raised a familiy all by herself after her husband and hunting partner died.
The subject here is woman and hunting, therfore I fail to see how I am not sticking to the "bloddy subject".
It would be nice if you could lighten up a bit and stop to flame everybody here. An old saying goes: "If you have nothing nice to say it is better to say nothing".:wink:
Re: how do i get my gf into hunting?
I think a little less speculation about people's past might be in order folks.
And huntwriter, i think if you examined his comments you'd see they pertained to the idea you put forward of women being better teachers, presumably as scamper i believe mentioned because they're less intimidating.
And, lets face it, there's some historical truth to the fact that women have not exactly been our allies traditionally - few female educators have anything nice to say about hunting as a rule - wendi (a prof at ryerson) has been our mortal enemy, and the death of 14 women at the hands of a lunatic has been used to beat gun owners over the head for, what, 15 years now? (strangely the death of 60 at the hands of a pig farmer hasn't become a rallying cry for the registration of pigs. :) )
However, while the points he makes are probably more valid than not - i think it tends to highlight that we DO need more women supporters in the sport.
