Valuable Resource

Interesting reference "quite bright" I wonder why intelligence needs to come into it at all.? I sometimes lack confidence in sharing my own thoughts because I worry about how I express myself and whether I'm being judged by people I see as more intelligent or articulate. But that doesn't mean I don't have something valuable to say. I wonder if this could link into why lots of people may view a post but maybe like me struggle with the confidence to respond.

I think the point I was trying to make is that most posts on here seem to come from people who are applying their intelligence to something they have an opinion on. In other words, one sees thoughtful, considered opinions rather than poorly thought-out views.

I think the range of topics and the way that people write about them is one of the best things about this forum. On other sites certain topics get monstered to the point where there's no point in even trying to talk about them, opinions can be far more black and white than they are here and ill informed. Nobody here thinks you're mad because you like certain types of music, fil or literature and you don't get scads of stuff telling you why you're mad for not liking the things others do. I can't think of another forum where we could admit to not covering our dolls faces, because it would suffocate them, or parking our cars next to others of the same make so as they can talk to each other, without fear of ridicule. Or and to me and so many others, no victim blaming on places like the Russel Brand thread.
