Lindsey -
You're right about women judging about the pics - you said it much better than I did yesterday. I was being snarky, because I tell people I know about the show, the BBS, etc. I tell them it's a show for anybody. Looking at the website, there are many hot/pretty/cute 18-25 year olds. If a 35-ish mom, or a woman in her 40's (and up) feels comfortable enough about the show to let the world know she listens, that kind of backs up that FTL is a show for everyone.
Comments like Jiperly's might give a girl 2nd thoughts, and felt like slapping him for it. But I chose to use words (not necessarily the right ones) instead of a karma bitchslap, to be more upfront about it.
