Can we please down vote title posts that begin with "Im a woman/girl and I find this ______"?

It is kind of relevant. It's someone who is unaffected by the criticism who is more believable to an outside source because they're seen to have no reason to lie. "I'm a cow and I think chickens are treated inhumanely." If the chicken had said this people might tell him "bullshit, chicken, you just want additional rights, possibly at the expense of the cows."

I think that we should encourage participation, and a demontration of broad based support that such language demonstrates.

Humm, mixed feelings about this one. I see where OP is coming from, and I agree it shouldn't be relevant. On the other hand, I guess girls and women who use this kind of language want to show that they are not speaking out of self-interest. IMHO, there's nothing wrong with pointing out that this sub is not considered to be a boys' club, all are welcome to post, and gender should not be a factor, but I think it's going a step too far to say we should automatically down-vote someone who states upfront they are female. It seems like a well-intentioned, if perhaps misguided, thing to do.

I'd also like us to stop any non-descriptive titles. "Stuff like this drives me crazy" is even more annoying. WHAT STUFF ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? Do you not know what the fucking purpose of a title is??

Don't expect people to click on your links "just because they're here".

How about we down vote posts that try to tell other people what to do?

Imagine going around proclaiming "I am a man, and I . . ." - actually I think I'm going to start doing this.
