I think this thread was split off by the mods for this very reason.
I certainly don't think we should accept anything as-is. The population of female posters that post often seems to be low, but thus far they haven't been singing it's praises, so what percentage of the population has to have a problem with it for it to be enough?
It's pretty clear that a good number of women, along with a good number of men find the current state of the thread offensive, so what's your limit?
Why does something that offends others and activity objectifies and de-humanises women have to wait on massive public outcry before it sees change? As I've outlined, it's not hard to make a couple changes to keep the thread while making it inclusive. Does that pose a problem to you? Would you be comfortable with your sister, girlfriend, or mother having their breasts thrown up on a forum for a bunch of guys to make "rack" jokes about?
