just wondering, since the board is so quiet...?

Does anyone else think it's amusing when men (or more likely young boys, as men who've had pregnant wives often know a thing or three!) answer pregnancy questions with completely wrong information? Such as "no it's not possible to be pregnant and bleeding...duhhhh!" or "you cannot get pregnant from pre-come...I've had sex with my girl 4 times and she's not pregannt yet!" and "you should start feeling the baby move and start showing around 2 or 3 months". I mean it's bad enough when women are so misinformed...but what makes a young boy even THINK he knows the correct answer to questions about pregnancy, something he's only been through on the fetal side? Am I the only one who notices these answers and thinks it's odd?

    I think it is hilarious! They answer all rude sometimes like you are so stupid for asking such a stupid question, when they give you the wrong answer. I love it. I am not saying that it is all the guys that post on here, because some of them are actually really smart, but there are always those feqw that ruin it for everyone!

    I totally agree!! I feel bad for alot of the people that post on here because they're lookiing for a real answer, then they get bombarded with 10 or 15 answers, and most of them are off the mark. Then you've got those that can't spell, or try to write in some specifically stylized way. It just drives me nuts!

    And need we even go into all the " Am I pregnant?" questions? LOL

    There is a lot of misinformation about various subjects. I saw one person tell another that it was alright to give a baby honey before they are 1 year old! I really dont know why people answer questions when they are not positive, it could do damage.

    It's all about the almighty points. :-)

    Think of how boring the boards would be if there were only well informed people here though. Can't imagine they would be the same.

    I've never seen so many typos when spell check is available. Seriously. It's mind-numbing.

    no, I've noticed them too. I've had some questions on here that mothers would understand but kids answer my question as if i have no common sense. it is irritating.

    Hear hear.

    What's worse is when WRONG information is selected as the best answer.

    Scary.
