Quoted from dmbjunky:

It's interesting how the people most uncomfortable with talking about sex and the attraction between sexes were religious people when I was growing up. It seemed that socially liberal people were the ones advocating for freedom of expression regarding images of men and women and sex. Today the reverse has happened where nearly all of the religious people I know are OK with movies and images depicting sex and the "feminists" or "SJWs" are the prudes.
I'm not a person that curses a lot. I don't parade around shirtless or like pictures of scantily clad women in my home but I will not judge people and expect them to follow the guidelines I have set for my life. I've seen enough cultures in the world to know that people will never agree on what is right and what is wrong and I don't expect them too. If Japan wants to eat horse and dolphins, I may not partake but I won't condemn them. If Colorado and Washington want to smoke marijuana, I'll pass but go right ahead. If the people next door want to never cut their grass and let their house fall apart, it's embarrassing but it's their house. I don't understand this new trend of socially bullying and harassing people who have different ideas than you do. This recreational outrage.
hmmm....
I love pinball.

Quoted from TOURO:

If Pinside is so horrible why be a member? Simply to stir the pot? BlondeTall said there were 35,000+ members here, and an extreme few find it to be so repulsive.
Thanks to the Mods and to Robin for their dedication, enduring the name-calling and other attacks so that we all can have a place to talk about the great game of Pinball.

Quoted from iceman44:

No offense Pez but the world doesn't have "foster diversity" 24/7. People congregate and get involved with things they like to do, like pinball.
There isn't a secret nefarious code by the "vocal majority" to keep certain people out. People are here because of pinball and their personalities will come out. If you don't like it, that's tough titty for you. I don't mind what you or anybody else has to say because i respect your opinion to voice it.
The "diversity" police are the ones that perpetuate the problems of the past by constantly bringing it up, over and over again.
Things don't change overnight, its generational.

Quoted from wayout440:

This thread derailed totally off the track to politics (read: Pinside rules violation). Now getting back on topic to the question of the ability of pinball to be a relationship magnet.

Quoted from TOURO:

Over/Under on how long this lasts?

Quoted from SilverBallz:

here is a more passionate one.

Quoted from jwilson:

If no one challenges you on your shit, nothing changes.

Quoted from Darkwing:

All I know is, good thing my gf is OK with it, because I'm not changing... Actual question: "whatcha gonna do tomorrow?" Well, I'm gonna get up early, go to the arcade and play some pinball and DDR... Once it cools off here in AZ, that will be go skate, play some pinball, and DDR...
