Sounds like here.

there's drama on ATOT, but nothing compared to female forums. here, the drama doesn't usually travel from thread to thread and into harrassing PM's, e-stalking, etc.

my sister reads and posts on a baby forum and has told me some nightmare stories.

Uhh, once again "sounds like here".

My wife spends the majority of her time on The Bump. It's frightening.

lol ok i just went there, but the quality of the trolling is low comparing to ATOT. The trolls are telling obvious lies, not very impressed.

go look in PFI or better yet Politics and News forum. you talk about a bunch of drama kings. :laugh:
There is no drama is P&N. We are having serious discussions about the future of the world.

It is not our fault that the other side is a bunch of drug using hippie socialists 🙂

I call all the flaming and name calling = drama. I would be afraid the end was near if there was actually a thread in there with ONLY mature discussion and not personal attacks.

It's like that college Bryn Mawr, where people hear "all girl college" but realize it's full of nothing but butch-looking lesbians when it's too late.

I've never seen such a forum. If you got every female online into 1 forum, it wouldn't have as much traffic as the AT Free Stuff forum :^D

Well, you can inject ATOT poster in the place of woman and the sentence works just as well.
