I want to thank you for sticking up for us ladies...I don't need a man. I drive a 2000 Camaro a 3.8 because insurance when I was picking out my car was outrageous. My car is black with limo tinted windows and I have the ram air and a K&N filter and 17 X 9.5 inch chrome Y2K corvette rims, wrapped in KUHMO ECSTA tires 275-45-17 with a nice stereo system. I will be including pictures real soon. I love my car and keep up with it as much as possible.

It's about how you act.

If you come here to post pictures of yourself and let it be known in every post that you are a woman, then you are going to get leghumped. Which is probably what you wanted anyway.

As long as you come on here with the mindset of sharing and learning automotive information, there shouldn't be a problem on either end. The majority of this board calls me 'dude', 'man' etc but I just stopped correcting after a while

I'd rather have the Men here leg hump my car and my ability to drive it well on the track


Women or not, I am here and on all car forums because of my car and the fact that I love to RACE it.

But you have to admit it does get old seeing some Ladies here post their pics online numerous times for attention. And that annoys the **** out of me.

If you are here because you enjoy the sport and enjoy cars, then that will be obvious. Just be up front with the reason you are here. If you open yourself up to it, it will happen. Hell, I have been on this site for years. Up until a year ago most of the guys thought I was a guy. Hell... most of them still do! I received a few "leg humping" compliments after the calendar was released, but they were all done in a respectful manner. Again, it all comes down to the way you present yourself.... and to be quite honest, some of these girls make it awfully hard to take the real chicks seriously! I can see it from both sides... but I do agree that this site shouldn't turn into a dating forum

What calender , pm me about it, o and if thats ur z in ur sig, then you are the coolest chick ever

one solution that can be used on an individual basis is for the female not to reveal her sex at all. what does a persons sex have to do with the ls1 TECH anyway? there really is no need for that here.

maybe some may argue that a female *should* be able to reveal her sex identity (for probably not a good reason) without such harassment. BUT my suggestion is a PRACTICAL solution that would actually work regardless of what should be.

this stated,
i will not feel sorry for any further sexual harassment
though i will avoid engaging in any myself.

zangel said it well

Sex has little to do with cars but I do not feel like I should hide the fact that I am a female because I am on a male-dominated industry.

@Keliente-Ha, ha! Girl, you know sex has everthing to do w/cars! We has sum sex-t rides!

I think this is one of the least leg humping sites I belong to. I've personally never had any problem here. Anything that has been said, was just friendly, healthy razzing. That's all. I don't post a whole lot here, but enjoy reading & learning all there is to know.

For whatever reason when ladies join this site, they don't seem to stay around very long. They do an intro & are outa here, or so it seems. Some of the gals who are regs on here & I have our theories. But I don't think leg humping is one of them.

Well, there-I've given my

G'day!

I've been leg humped before, but they soon forget your a Women and most newbs have no idea. The veterans that know me know who I am.

My wife posts here on ocassion ... she has a Trans Am, as well (stock). We've never had a problem with anyone on the board here. Usually, the sexual comments come out when a female member exchanges harsh words and gets into mud-slinging with another male member. In this scenario, there are a FEW ******** who pull the sexuality card, because (IMHO), it's the only way they think they can prove themselves when their arguement is defeated by the female member.

Pretty lowlife to interject that sort of thing into an arguement. Oh well, there's 'one in every crowd' ... a lot of good people here, so you shouldn't have to worry about it much. If it happens, ignore it. However, most folks here are mature and adult enough to not dislpay that sort of behavior.

I think the leg humping we're talking about are the ones who want attention.........and that goes along with those Girls posting pictures of themselves.

That's where it becomes stupid IMO. Show a picture of yourself why? Who gives a ****, are you here so Men can think you are more than you really are in looks and persona in life outside of the internet?, or are you here because of your interest in your car?

I guess some people crave attention they are lacking elsewhere or have lacked somewhere in life.

Sorry to have to post this thread, but it appears we have some little boys in the house.

....and they wonder why there aren't more women car enthusiasts out there...

Moderators: If you see someone making negative personal comments towards these new members, please ban them as stated above. We will not tolerate this childish crap on LS1TECH.

Sound like a plan, lol.
