Is my avatar offensive & in really poor taste for this kind of forum?

[wasp]

Is it any wonder why the reputable members leave and no one seriously considers trade2win a solid learning arena for the markets?

Reputable members leaving ?

Whats a reputable member leaving ?

A: This the foyer here

and

B: to me a reputable member is not some loonie spouting esoteric theories that have nothing to do with net profitable trading, to me a reputable member is one who trades successfully for a living, and by that count I know of one member here who heads a trading desk at a bank, I know of two members here who trade for hedge funds, and several at prop firms, one ex-floor trader now trading very succesfully from home and live in front of others for free, and they all post here regularly, so, sorry but nono, I can't share your despondence RE reputable members leaving.

This is a traders forum after all, and as I said earlier, the going-ons at bank trading floors and exchanges make this thread look like a kindergarten excursion by comparison.

Btw, I find it really sad that people who have a problem with nudity - not that J's avatar even IS nude in the first place lol -, hate God so much and with such a vengeance...

All he did was create us the way we are...

Where does it say in the Bible that nudity, ie showing us the way God made us, would upset him ?

Wouldn't he have created us fully clothed if that were the case ?

I think its very sinful to hate His creation the way those upset at J's avatar are doing.

I also don't see where exactly in the Bible it says that we shouldn't shag around to our hearts content ?

If I remember all it says is that we shouldn't disrupt exisiting relationships, ie not shag your neighbours wife, which is something totally different.

Besides, lets face the undeniable facts, by far most societies on this God created planet of ours are NOT monogamous NOR do they have any problems with nudity, and that is simply the way God in His infinite wisdom saw fit to create us.

One shouldn't mistake Gods created facts with power driven organised religion trying to outsin everything and then offer salvation, a cheap power trick if ever there was one.

Again, I think it's wrong to hate God and his creations so much, people should be less uptight, enjoy Gods creations more, be thankful for what we have, and behave properly towards others.

I never found your avatar offensive at all. However when viewing porn its always nice to see the face of a cute female model aswell as her naughty bits. Perhaps T2W should allow bigger avatars.

I might be wrong, but you've made 31 posts, and as i see it a lot of these were slagging off T2W.

Apart from that I've seen you draw up a list of members names who's threads you endorse and recommend to others, and cast the remaining 100,000 members onto the rubbish dump. Of what value this is anyway? - one has to question, as you may not know anything about trading yourself.

I'm not being funny, but you sound a bit like Norris Cole off coronation street.

Are you by any chance a previous member returning with a new username.

As BSD says, this is the foyer!

Have you included me in this? Just wanted to know whether I am on your list. I'm quite successful and very reputable, but have nothing to do with bank, property or hedge funds.

Ahh Split, you're a bit of a conundrum, see, you're definitely trés successful and of the highest reputation, but the problem is you're trading from the lofty position of not actually having to trade any more as a wealthy retiree, so, while from a standpoint of net profits and reputability you definitely need including, I'm not sure if thats fair to us working stiffs needing to slog it to reach your elevated rank, while you just choose to trade out of solidarity to us and to motivate us on our gruelling journey.

Hmm.

Difficult that.

 

[superspurs]

its certainly not as offensive,as watching spurs at the moment.

Prudish people with problems with uncovered human flesh, are very likely to not be too happy generally i think.
But if one is relaxed about taking ones top off at the beach, donning a pair of shorts, seeing other people expose torso's & legs etc. it is likely to show they are comfortable and at ease with themselves as physical beings.

I know grown men who go to the gym & never wear shorts, for fear that their legs are too skinny, or too fat, or too hairy and feel self conscious as a result.
I know other grown men who don't get showered with the boys after playing football, for whatever reason - maybe they are in the closet, maybe they have unusual sized manhoods etc. but instead choose to get dressed sweaty & dirty.

But to me the human body is what it is. It is how we were born, and how nature intended. If a person cannot be comfortable with their bodies, or seeing exposed parts of other peoples bodies, they are going to struggle with several things in life.

Maybe the avatar is JUST TOO provocative, and illicits a deep response/desire that the "YES" people cannot reconcile with their logical mind. But skimpy g-string, tanned & oily skin or not, at the end of the day, it is only human.

Its not like its an extreme close u and see through, and the avatars are that small anyway.......

Good God, here in Germany in saunas in swimming pools or gyms or hotels etc they are always mixed meaning boys and girls in the same sauna at the same time lol ladies and gentlemen, and everyone is totally nude with absolutely no fuss being made.

But then we generally aren't big on hating Gods creation while loving the death penalty, guns, cruelty to animals, or wars (well ok, since the last 50 years at least lol) either.

What types of sauna's are these exactly? R U talking about - i.e. down at the local sports centre, or something a little more specialised and adult orientated?

One of my ex volleyball coaches studied in Dusselfdorf. He said the men & women trained at the same time and/or together. Afterwards, they'd all get showered together. Quote - "It was brilliant ."

It's a humerous thread in The Foyer. If you aren't amused, simply pass by.

Nono I'm not on about some sort of bordello or anything mate

Literally all regular saunas in Germany are mixed and nude, be it in swimming pools, hotels, gyms, etc etc, same mixed / naked thingy as are showers in swimming pools or sport centres.

Nobody to date has experienced the wrath of God for that, but then, hey, He created us like that didn't he.

So of course He enjoys our admiring his handiwork.

I mean, who wouldn't apart from some all out fiends ???



Really , the worst mistake one can make is mistake God with organised religion: the latter is on about nothing than a cheap power trip, trying to subjugate the masses by attempting to out-sin and ban just about everything, including Gods own creation lol, and then being the loophole institution through which one must crawl for salvation.

Ridiculous.

Wicked man!

So let me get this straight. You are a 20's-30's young adult, you go to work in the day, and maybe 3-4 times per week, it is commonplace to go to the gym - which serves as a meeting place for you and the people you know etc.
After a strenuous workout, you relax in a clothing free mixed steam room/sauna/shower. Men chat to women, vice versa, etc. You might even be a man who goes there & meets/sits with a female colleague from work etc....and all without no sexual overtones etc??

If so, this demonstrates how truly civilised German society is, when it comes to sex, nudity etc.....and, I'll be on the 1st plane over!

Yup, basic idea.

OK, people do get picked up there just like anywhere else where two people are mutually attracted, be it in a club, supermarket or plane lol, but its got to be mutual obviously.

You start a conversation and the other side doesn't respond then thats it.

Anyone abusing that and going on, trying to pick someone up who doesn't want to be picked up, would probably get kicked out, and rightly so.
