  • Why does Yahoo! delete answers that are honest?

    I have posted 2 answers that have been deleted on Yahoo! Answers. My answers to questions were honest. I didn't hold back and I can't understand this latest deletion. Below is the question, my answer and their response/reason why it was deleted.

    Question: Can Anyone Tell Me If I'm Pregnant Or Not ??????

    Question Details: Helloo, i'm 13 and I know this wasn't a very good idea but . . . . . I could be pregnant !! I have a head ache, my breasts hurt, back ache, I had a belly ache a week after I had sex and it's not going away !! I came on but hardly anything is coming out !! Can anyone help me with this ?? x

    Deleted Answer: Sure, I'll help you out! QUIT HAVING SEX AND YOU WOULDN'T BE ON YAHOO! ANSWERS ASKING SUCH A QUESTION!!! No one on here can answer this question from anyone. We aren't psychics, and your symptoms cover a range of illnesses...like the flu, a stomach virus or even an infection! And if you knew it wasn't a very good idea to have sex at 13, then you should have known it wasn't a very good idea to post this kind of question. Stop having sex and you wouldn't have to worry about being pregnant. I swear you teens just make up symptoms that sound good to you, but they have absolutely NOTHING to do with actually being pregnant. You don't realize just how stupid your symptoms sound.

    Violation Reason:Insulting Other Participants

    I don't see how I "Insulted Other Participants," when the only thing that could be remotely taken as an insult, is when I stated, "You don't realize just how stupid your symptoms sound."

    It wasn't directed at anyone! Saying someone is stupid versus saying their comments SOUNDED stupid are two entirely different things.

    Yahoo! Answers allows a multitude of questions. If their "Posting Police" are going to pick and choose who gets a violation, then they should take this part of their site down immediately.

    I answered this question yesterday.

    Is it possible for me to be pregnant?

    i had sexual relationships with my boyfriend on july 26th we didn't use a condom.

    the next day (july 27th) i had my period, so i didn't take the emergency or next day pills.

    now i'm a little worried, 'cause my period isn't here yet, so i wanna know how possible is it for me to be pregnant?

    This person had posted another question saying she was 26 years old and a teacher. She stated, in a round about way, that she had feelings for her 15 year old male students. Today, she has the above question, now in Spanish. And Yahoo! Answers doesn't find it offensive that she posted a question regarding pedophelia?

    Like I said, I cannot understand how Yahoo! Answers can allow pedophelia but won't allow honest comments.

    Does anyone else feel this way? Have you had an answer deleted that you felt should not have been? When you appeal your violation, has anyone ever won and was your answer reposted?
