From a phycotherapist's point of view..I think people go to the public post as a type of exhibitionism and to enlist others into the controversy...about subjects that have NOTHING to do with thread. If they thought they might be being tuned out....this would dampen efforts to foment dispute (off topic ones). The reason SI has threads is so people who want to read on a particular subject can do it........ Not to tune into a stock name to learn how someone's sex drive should be at various age stages or whether the size of someone's penis makes a difference. It can become very counterproductive when the majority of posts between just a few individuals becomes perverted on the thread. I'm not saying such posts aren't proper..ther are just more appropriate forums for it. We need to maintain organization on SI to achieve maximim benefit from the thread. JO
