Yes, I do believe we have achieved Maximum Immaturity today. I'm sorry that's your first impression of Gender Studies. I started to come here after reaching my stupidity threshold in other areas (example: Diet & Fitness -How can I lose 20 pounds in a month? - every day!) of Yahoo Answers and actually found some intellectually stimulating discussions. But it has been spiraling downward for a few weeks, and today sure seems like rock bottom. I do hope it doesn't get any worse. I cannot even imagine it.

Tell you what, when you get violation notices in your email that are clearly not violations, when you have spent enough time on this forum to see the "lovely" homophobic, and violent advocating comments, and personal attacks completely unrelated to the topics of questions, and have also had the "pleasure" of dealing with the 50+ trolls in this forum, AND (lest we forget) have the "honor" of being cloned and slandered, THEN ask this question. You might have a more open-mind.
"one should just not come to this forum if you are going to act like a child and go reporting and blocking people.what do you think"
Sweetheart, community guidelines are in place for just that reason, if Y!A staff sees it fit to have users moderate the forums by including reporting flags and blocking features, it is our RESPONSIBILITY to flag users who are in violation.
get a couple days under your belt, you'll see
take care

Oh I agree with you 100%. I don't come here to judge or be upset over someone's post/opinion. I have read some mean stuff on here and some really personal attacks as well. I look at this place or any other place online as a public place with people with many different ways of thinking...everyone has a right to their opinion and everyone has the freedom to speak their minds...and the people who get upset have a right to express their anger as well...and the right to block/report people. It really doesn't matter to me.

I totally agree with you on that!!! in my opinion, that is not only childish as you said, but narrow-minded as well!!!! and I'm glad someone brought it up. One of the things that to me is so cool about yahoo questions is that you get answers from all sorts of people from different parts of the world and you get to hear so many different opinions and ways of thinking and its just annoying when people are open to new ideas!!

I think people use these forums to air their frustrations. A release of sorts. Then we have the ones that take themselves very seriously. Then we have the total jerks. None of this makes it ok. It is life at Y/A.

Welcome to Yahoo Answers. This is not a public forum. It is a Socratic question and answer learning tool privately owned. The owners have established community guidelines. Participants who do not abide by those guidelines are reported and suspended. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. This isn't public high school or a free-for-all. One of the guidelines requests that participants aid in the maintenance of this site by reporting questions and answers that violate the established community guidelines.
The anonymity of this environment challenges participants to express themselves with sociably constructive postings without the normal social inhibitions that are experienced in "real" life. Those who fail that challenge and feel compelled to express themselves and their personal agendas in violent, destructive, malicious, vicious ways are either forced to learn to rise unto themselves to higher levels of self-control and expressive maturity or they are not allowed to continue their participation.

What do you mean "Cloning" and threats of reporting people? I wasn't aware of any of these activities. I guess they don't concern me.
