Has the Kuda had its time..

Post by MadKaw »

Its been brought to my attention that the Kuda may be considered "unsuitable" for our forum by some members.
In its original format, for those that do know, it is considered quite offensive, in some circles.
It wasn't that well known when it first came up on here, but its getting a bit of coverage lately...
Should we move on and remove it, or has it taken another life and we don't really think about it in its original format. ?
Keep in mind we do want to cater to both sexes on here and there could be those who think some of the things on here are inappropriate for an open forum...

Discuss... Sensibly.!

Does this mean I will have to remove the large stickers from my van?

I can understand it's offensive nature, and the social awareness to the crude meanings. Perhape we remove the middle finder and have him are a kwak rocker :supz:

but I like the kuda dude :kuda:

I don't think it's inappropriate... but then I have known you lot for quite a while... :p :kuda:

It's our way of making ourselves known to each other... if you don't throw kudas, how am I ever going to know it is Bogan and Macca beeping madly at me from a car? how will we entertain ourselves when cameras are pointed in our direction? :kuda:

cmon we ALL knew what the kuda was when it was introduced... weve been this long with it, why the change NOW? if it is that offensive how come no one came forward before? this makes no sense :kuda:

Originally it was fun, although it is an offensive sexual gesture to some it has become part of our unique sub culture so over time I have accepted it as our own wave of friendship that even my fingers find hard to do just like the scouts salute was hard to do.

I hope all members have actually tried it and too each other :kuda: we could call it the moose :twisted:

The kuda spelling would be hard for an outsider to pick up on, but as an old karn it would be shameful to sanitise the rebellious ways of our members and the meaning of the kuda.

Damed if you do or don't, but we are mature people here so if you don't like it ...................
