Before, sexism on this site and in a large swath of society wasn't made out to be a big deal, it was almost taken casually and that wasn't right or a good thing then. The difference is that the mods/Bingo have decided to address the sexism issue in positive manner to become more inclusive to everyone and try to make both this site and society in general just a little bit better (I know it sounds like I'm overstating it a bit, but change happens gradually, not all at once). IMO that's a very good thing and I applaud them for doing so.
Nobody is saying to change your attitudes or opinions on things. You are just as free to be of the same mind as you were yesterday or a month ago. You just can't share that set of opinions on this particular private space any longer. There's a whole rest of the internet available to you to do so if you so wish. CP is mainly a hockey and general news site with some other things thrown in. It is not somewhere that should have a thread dedicated to mostly borderline NSFW pictures for no real reason other than oooh they're pretty.

I think it's already been determined that there was nothing wrong with the pictures so not sure why you are on and on about them? EG et. al have said it's the comments. So the thread should be put back up and the comments moderated.
