I understand your concern, however, this is a bipolar community after all, and well, you know....

Although it is not always like that, it does happen from time to time, and there is really no way to force everyone to comply with a title code like that, although it is a good idea.

In order for it to work, though, everyone would have to be willing to do it on their own, and that's just not going to happen....

so you have to be on your guard, and as soon as you see something offensive, change the channel. (or the topic.)

I guess I am prude as well cause I was little bothered by the titles. Something for everybody. Too each his own.

honest of you.

i go through moods with the sex stuff. sometimes i'm really prudish too & don't want to talk about it.

somehow i always manage to get along.

agree sjaud

Going XXX makes DS just like all the other sites, which are really cyber sex sites.

i say free speech for the most part but i surely dont care to hear about porn or really deep sexual matter, not here at least...thats stuff for bedtime with wifey...sheesh

Hey, I like a lil sex talk every now and again!

This has been a source of many discussions. I agree with you. However I do know and understand that dealing with hypersex issues is a part of being BP at least it was for my ex. I want to have the feedom to express myself as others do also...I think for me it comes down to using better judgement in how things regarding sex are posted so that we dont loose the whole idea behind this site. To help...support...educate. Nothing so far has offended me. If it does I just dont continue to read it or comment on it.

if it's gonna offend people I prefer ppl didn't start such topics...doesn't offend me, but still.

If sex topics need a rating then the religion topics do too.

Sigh. There's a lot of posts that are rather .... unfortunate. But I think that it's also inevitable, on a BP site. (Happens a lot on other, non-BP sites as well, although maybe not quite as much.)
Be glad when the topic line warns you ahead of time and just bypass anything that you think might be offensive. I really think that's the best we can try for!!
We could put 'possible trigger' in the subject line, but I don't know if I'd always think to do that. My brain just isn't there enough, a lot of the time.

And this is coming from a person who does not respond to positive posts. God forbid that someone needs a light hearted moment and does a "racey" post. It is possible that the person posting does not view the topic as vulgar. I personally view sex as wholesome and clean. In all due respect, I say "Get a room and have Bible study".

The sex topics of late are not dealing with BP hypersexualty...they're flaunting it. People need to quit hiding behind their diagnosis to justify inappropriatness...but I am sure few will agree with that.

Unfortunate turn of event for this site...it is loosing all the good that it was.

Don't get too discouraged guys. It's just a phase. It will pass, believe me. When I get tired of the thread titles...or realize a few people are needing to act out stuff, i tend to go inside and message or read journals. Or..actually get something accomplished off the computer!
Please don't give up and leave though. We all have something valuable to teach eachother here and there.

Where's all this x rated stuff then? Just out of interest? Not that I want to read it, I was just wondering where it is so I am warned?
