Default My Avie

I've just been told my avie has offended some. I apologise. It was not my intent. I selected it after a conversation in this very forum concerning entitlements. It revolved around whether its the role of govt to provide said entitlements.

So its origin was politically based, and had no intent of sexual overtones.

Again. My apologies.

Now I gotta go find another avie...

I know, right?

And it was with me since 2005. It just kinda was me on here.

It was a shadow of a pole dancer that said "I support single moms".

I am gonna miss it.

Remember it now.. guess someone complained about that, but on this forum there are sexist and misogynist threads all the time, and no one does nothing. Different strokes for different forums...

Wow, I never realized you put so much thought into it.
You ought to appeal since pole dancing is creeping into sport territory now.


To any moderators who happen by: You do know that you have no possible hope of bringing the number of complaints you get down to zero, right?

Why would someone from Poland dancing offend anyone?
