Armorama now takes a new turn in its ever expanding travels by implementing a new Female Modelling Forum.

This forum is located on the Armorama IPMS-UK site. Hopefully with this forum, we can give ladies a place to come and discuss their modelling questions and or opinions with other ladies. So all you guys out there....let your wives, girlfriends, daughters, or female friends know that there is a place for them to come and take part in.

Female Modelling Forum

Mary (++)


Any female that has trouble getting into the forum ..please pm me.

EDIT.....Just to clarify ...Guys are not allowed into the Female Modelling Forum...Sorry....Girls Only...

It wouldn't hurt all the guys to suppor this forum...hehe

Mary

Well, once Kelley gets some time I'll have her post her models in here.... We haven't had much time to build heck either one of us for that matter..... but then again I can be a bit of a bench Hog...LOL :-) :-) :-)

Gee Mary this seems to be a wonderful thing. I'll be sure to tell my fiance' all about it :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) seriously i hope all the women enjoy "their" forum. cheers Kevin

WOOOOOOWWWW a female forum!!

All ladies BE a member of this site!!

:-) :-)

Hey Mary,

Congrats on the new forum. Any chances it'll be move over to the "main" Armorama site in the near future? No offense to anyone, but IMHO Seems kinda hidden over at the UK site...

Congrats again. Nice to see that the ladies (yes, lads, they are ladies) have there own private little (hopefully not for long) corner.

p.s. Kev, I'd hold back on telling your fiance about the Ladies' forum.... I hear the new moderator is a real tough nurse - a great modeller-ess(?) - but a real tough nurse! just kidding, Mary! :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) Hugs and Kisses!

I will tell my girl and Martin must do also! I think it is a good way to attract more lady modellers.

Lol, before you know are whole families online at the same time. "I want on Armorama, says the guy to his wife" No, honey.. it's my turn...go back to your models....." hehe

Thanks soo much guys for all your support.
Tarok...as far as your question as if it will be moved here to the main site..I personnally like that idea..but...we shall see how it goes..

Mary (++)

Congrats on your forum, and I hope it doesn't mean you won't be posting here anymore.

Hi Everybody

I'm giving my 2 cents here hopefully not stiring the hornet's nest.

Why do we need a ladies forum? To me, this hobby is suitable for both sexes. Whether you are male or female, we all encounter the same experiences, topics, and problems in this great hobby.

Wouldn't be better if we all can stay in one big happy forum?

Hi Ladies

Congratulations of this significant milestone.

Don't forgot about the rest of the mainstream forums.

It would a lesser mainstream forum without the contributions from the likes of Angela, Mary , Jenny and from the many other ladies whose names escape me at the moment.

Regards

Fordboy

geeeeeeeeeeeez no one ever remembers me! *stomps foot* :-) i guess i don't post enough!

Mary, Congrats on segregating genders in Armorama...now, go to your room!

Great stuff on the new forums! I tried to get my missus into modelling and was fairly close to doing so but she pulled out at the last minute. She ended up sewing instead which wasnt too bad.

Will certainly be supporting the forum when i can.

Wildcard...The ladies forum isnt about just model related stuff..In there..ladies will be allowed to voice their opinions on other matters as well..that may be less..appealing...to you guys... :-) :-) :-)



Thanks soo much to the rest for your support. Personally..i would like for the forum to be a place for ladies..non-modelors..to come into and see that this isnt just a hobby that the guys can do..its something that everyone can do..from the youngest to the oldest.

Mary

Now Mary, this idea I like very much!

At least in the ladies forum the place won't smell like old socks.

Good luck with the new site Ladies I really hope it works out well for you.

cheers
Cliff

PS> can I join please please I'll maybe (NOT) get down on my knees and beg pretty please :-)

Murph, don't be an ass or I'll hide your tools!

Mary, I'll check it out, thank you.

Gigi

Hey, it say's "You must be a member to view" and I signed in and everything!

What do I do?
G

Yes or even worse: "honey no, Shermans didn't have pink camouflage"

Or is that discrimination?

I'll ask Jess but although she's kinda raised with models (her father is a RC builder) it's not her hobby. She respects the fact it's my hobby and that's good enough for me (and she loves the fact I named my M4A1 after her hehe)



Mary and all the other ladies, good luck with your new forum but please don't forget us poor guys at the main armorama site. We couldn't miss you

Martin

Its really great to have all of you guys support. Ladies need to know that modelling just isnt for the guys in the family..lol

Mary

My only concern is that all you ladies go there and don't come back

So, I think you should be "obligated to post here at least once a week so we still can keep in touch.

Congrads on the new forum ladies..Cliff is gonna beg?This I gotta see!

Good luck with the Ladies Forum, Mary. I hope it works out great for all the female members of Armorama

Personally, I think we could use a few more female members

I'll raise a glass on that one !!

Cheers !!

I'm all for measures that will attract and encourage new members to both our hobby and this site. However I do not think that having a particular forum that is for ladies only is the right way to be doing this.

I would like to make it clear that I am NOT a sexist, racist, or any other kind of -ist... However I am not a fan of positive discrimination either. By having a forum where no males are allowed to read or make posts we are segregating members; putting it into a different context, how popular would a forum be that was for males only? Or one for Christians only? Whites only?

This isn't something I'm about to get worked up about and I will happily go along with the majority view, just wanted to let people know my personal opinion on exclusive forums (of any kind).

Lucky I'm posting this from work, I already have my flame-retardant overalls on :-)
