Oh come on, it was funny in context, even if the timing was a bit late.

here, let me replay it for you:

i read something once about how, early on, scooters were marketed to women due to the step-through frame, where women could wear dresses, go shopping/run errands on a vespa. later had a convo with a motorcyclist about the same thing, but he just thought all scooters were emasculate because of the step through frame/history as it related to it.

I dont give a shit about what others think I ride. I ride for myself and I like scooters. they can keep that kind of opinion to themselves.

Jokes are jokes, oops. The problem is there have been a string of anti-female posts lately. It stands to reason that someone who thinks of women as lesser beings would try to offend a man by calling him a girl, which then causes a guy who's been called a girl to be offended.

I sincerely hope we've gotten all of that out of our systems.

I would consider myself a feminist, and a Liberal. So, I support women and their struggle for respect.

I was only upset because I thought it was another judgement about me by someone who only knows me by my posts here. and I dont think my post was aggressive. I am sorry if I offended you or anyone else.

Upset? I thought you were going with it? Laughing emoticon I don't know anyone here on this internet site, so my comment was certainly not a personal attack on you. I didn't mean to hurt your sensitivities.Clown emoticon

Both need some work, but looks to be a decent deal if you can talk it down.

Here's an interesting opportunity
Someone gave him this and he doesn't have a key or title, so be careful, but...

It is a Suntrike 150 cc 4 stroke with 8 miles and he's asking 1k.

If someone on here ends up buying this, I'd like a ride please.

And nicely worded.

"Original Paint. Everything works, runs and drives good"

I'd give him an extra grand just for not using "vintage, rare, ect..."
