Thank You, DC!!!

I wish . . .
I've been a member for 5 months, and I have to tell you the neatest thing about the Megs clinic I attended yesterday.

When I first walked into a room full of @ 65 men & only one other woman(with her husband), I got the feeling that they all wondered just what I was doing there - "She's a woman, what does she know about detailing? etc."

But as the class progressed & I was able to ask "intelligent" questions & give good responses to those asked, I could see their views change & by the end, some were even asking me my opinions!

THANK YOU, DC!!!! for all that you have taught me over the last 5 months!!!! You have been the "sharingest", funnest & most supportive forum & I feel like many of you are my friends!!

Thanks again,


Norah

:cool
 
Have you got your Visa/creditcard number memorized yet?:lmfao. Btw you are welcome. Also you are a great addition to the "City".
 
1/2 way till I know my number. That isn't good. Norah I don't think you will be happy in a few months after you realize how much u've spent.
 
I don't need credit cards. I get by on my good looks. :fuzz :naughty

Its always nice to have our female members say that they feel welcome. DC is great in the sense that its really not a sexist board. We are all friends here no matter where we are from or who we are. If you are a lady then you get a few extra points in my book, but some of the fellas here are smooth too. :naughty (they have me to thank for that, no doubt)
 
norahcrv,

That's great to hear about the clinic!

There is certainly no reason why a woman can't be a great detailer! We have some fine lady detailers here at DC. For example, I'm very, very, very finicky about my vehicles, and wouldn't let very many people touch them when it comes to detailing. However, if our Marj (awd300) every needs a test vehicle, she's more than welcome to have a go at my F150 SuperCrew! :bigups

Why, thank you Boss! I just happen to have some new rotary pads I've been dying to try out. :bigscream ................... Hmmm. Maybe I'd better do a little more practicing on some beaters before I take on your truck. :D

To share an experience similar to Norah's, I attended a BMW sponsored beginner's autocross class a few days ago. It was a short 2 hour course with some classroom instruction and several laps of "track time" with a professional road racer as the co-pilot. I had a blast, but I looked about as out of place as Norah did in her class. 47 students, 5 women (2 were there because their husbands wanted to go). About one third of the teaching staff was made up of women, so BMW did a good job of fostering a warm atmosphere for all attendees. :bigups
 
Absolutely this place is for women too.

I second Boss's opinion concerning Marj. When she speaks - I listen and closely too!

Would love to hear more about the clinic.
 
:wait :wait
This can't be.
I just read a post by Detail Girl over at Autopia where she said that DC always picks on the girls. :D

We know that isn't true. Ask The Whaler. No one gets picked on more than this Sand Stud! Not to steal a thread but to continue what Kee said. Marj is one on my main go to's when I need a go to. She hasn't steered me wrong yet! Thanx Marj!:bigups
 
Wow, my head is going to get sooooooo big that my neck muscles won't be able to hold it upright anymore. Then, how will I be able to detail? :dunno :-p

Woob - The BMW autocross class I attended was free of charge. They have more comprehensive classes for $$$, but I went to the freebie one.
 
I think DG has her own agenda, and it didn't mesh with the goals of DC.

I've not felt "picked on" here at DC in anything other than a friendly, teasing sort of way.

So, phooey on her!! DC rocks!!!

Norah
 
Whoever said that DetailGirl was a female? Would The Fuzz ban a lady? Well... maybe I would, but DetailGirl was no lady. :naughty Detail City doesn't care if you are a lady or a guy. Detailers are all the same kind of animal as far as I am concerned.

When DetailGirl first started posting on DC, she said some nice things about this board. Link Guess it's a woman's prerogative to change her mind.

For the record, I haven't felt picked on here either. If anything, I think was given a warmer and more hearty welcome due to my gender.
