That one in particular was one I noticed, based on reports. If there are other posts that, in your assessment, were worse, then they should have been avoided as well.

But that post and not the OP with Bettany Hughes? I’ll never understand what will offend people, and my implied side point was that the anti-misogyny rules are unclear. _M **ight as well shut it down, kids**._ I managed being too subtle for my own good, though in my favor, except for Kate Humble, everybody managed to keep their clothes on.

I do wish that readers take their objections directly to me rather than the mods. I’m not the most educable monkey, but I try. Pus, I’m bedridden and not going anywhere.

**Modnote** : In this case, I’m going to grant the Op’s request and shut down the thread.
