    I just find it ironic that on a board where so many of us are so vehemently against body shaming, and just about any other kind of shaming (which is great), that this is such an issue.

    Go ahead and GIF me to the end of the earth, but if you are at work and it could be a problem then maybe you shouldn't be bumping anyway--since you never know what you might accidentally "scroll across". Not hating on anyone who bumps at work, because that is what I am doing now :)

    Maybe it's time to vote again regarding our "rule" on this---since most of us don't have the "offensive" bloat anymore.

    I think we have mostly all agreed that bare bellies aren't the issue and as a forum filled with working women we usually try to keep things work appropriate.

    I'm sure we all agree that bare bellies in gym top and yoga pants are okay, bare bellies in your lacy bra and thong underwear is probably not okay. A lot of these mama's work and it's just NSFW for them to be scrolling and unexpectedly see that. It's not that bare bellies aren't beautiful, they ALL ARE! whether you have love lines or not! it's about being aware of the community here and respecting that some members here need the discretion. That is all. Now let's get back to your regularly scheduled beautiful HDBD pics!!
    This. Personally, I don't mind bare belly pics. The point is, not everyone likes them (or they're just NSFW) so we need to have respect for the community as a whole. What is so hard about taking a picture with a shirt on?

    Not trying to start drama, just poking fun! I would just like to point out that this board is open to anyone who clicks on the link. It's not private, and it's not exclusive. Last time I checked, participating on a board isn't automatically trolling. Maybe I'm wrong. Can I get a mod? @jennlin‌

    Yeah that's what you're doing.

    Participating.  

    Like I said, others have tried what you're doing, it didn't work out for them.  They were warned.

    You want to take a swing, be my guest.  

    But one thing you ladies might want to think about is the fact that this is @vargusgirl 's board.  And you all aren't helping her.  You're hurting her.  I know trying to engage in that kind of mental exercise is like a 400lb man doing crossfit for the first time for you but think it through.  No one gives a rats ass about what's her face the other one but your actions right now are potentially going to have consequences for someone here you're claiming to support.  She's said she wants it to drop.  If you want to disrespect her wishes, by all means.  You only make my point.


    Whoa whoa whoa there...

    Anybody can do CrossFit, mmkay? Get it straight girl.

    @kellbell1982‌ I absolutely understand that point, I'm just not personally affected by it since I wouldn't be looking at the forum when anyone could really see it anyway. Also I am cool with leaving my own shirt down---just saying that I'm not going to shame someone who decides to pull their shirt up :) Anyway, can't wait to see some more HDBD pics and post mine once these hooligans are gone for the day...I feel like I'm starting to have my first decent pop and couldn't be more excited!!

    It's somethin we all agreed on especially during the time when mostly everyone just had bloat and nobody wants to see that shit. Thanks for calling our voted on rules dumb though maybe try walking into an establishment and yelling that their rules are stupid that's pretty much what you are doing

    This goes back to early days when we were like five mins pregnant and showing bare food bellies was frowned upon for good reason. I thought you said you weren't here to start drama and I actually somewhat started to believe that but now here we go again. Obviously you are loved on your other board, why not post your boudoir pics there?

    I love all the bumps! (Minus a couple of obvious exceptions) It's pretty pathetic that some people's lives are so boring they have to go trolling other boards, you'd think they'd have something better to do. Sad really.

    No shit. I have too much of a real life to completely keep up with one BMB....3+ no thank you

    Since when does being the op of a thread that we do EVERY Wednesday make you the decider of all that goes down here? WE decided in the beginning way before you were op of one week that bare bellies were a no simply because no one wanted to see a non baby bloated belly. It has nothing to do with Vargas girl who I really thought posted a nice pic but more to do with shit like stargirl posted, even in an attempt at humor we don't want to see it.

    So you discovered the quote button? If you want to make a mockery of our board no one can stop you, I'm just confused as to why you'd want to? I get that you posted the pic jokingly however if the general consensus is that lingerie or nude pics aren't appropriate or welcome why push the issue?

    YEAH!  You go girl!  

    Telling someone on the internet that they can't tell you what to do = SUPER IMPORTANT THINGS.

    LOL 

    You guys are a hot mess.  I'm done playing with you.  I'm off to watch that new Amazon Transparent show that folks are talking about.

    ? Are we really going to argue about who is a bigger loser for spending hours of time posting anything on TB forums? That seems like a zero sum game.


    I admit, I am bored. Holding my napping baby and searching for something decent to watch...

    Oh look, people who don't go here with nothing better to do posting about how much our board sucks. What else is new.

    Hockey is back tonight. Go flyers

    You guys have a really odd way of interpreting some amusing pictures of bellies. Like, really odd.


    --end quote--

    Someone else can go back and quote all the grievances with why the "no belly" thing started on this particular board to begin with. Post all the pictures you want. I'm at home so there's no such thing as NSFW for me but I can respect the other ladies who can't be opening threads with pics of ladies in their bras and underwear.

    I'll state for the record I don't care about bare pregnant bellies. It's just when people are basically naked otherwise it becomes non-internet appropriate. Pretty sure neither me or my H would be thrilled with pics of me in my bra and panties, pregnant or otherwise, out on the interwebs. Especially with the creeper shit going on on TTGP lately I want no part of that.

    PS if I'm still here in March 2016 getting my rocks off posting on expectant mother boards just take my toys and make me go home. Please.

    let me guess... you also feel bad for our husbands and kids?

    LOL cute. You know me too well.
