The thread is neither supportive, nor educational, and it makes me uncomfortable...I think flirting can in fact be supportive in some ways, so I think I'd like to let it go. Offensive comments, however, are uncivil and will be dealt with.

I'm not saying it's naturally OK here, I think it does raise questions. But I think that after considering those questions, it's more OK than not...
