Criticizing somebody's dancing or acting skills is fine but mocking somebody's physical appearance is definitely bashing 🤔

This is the biggest issue with IF. suck up to celebs, IF will itself post articles based on their personal lives.
The moment members discuss about it, it becomes a crime

Post death wishes, talk foul about other's parents - totally acceptable
Post you don't like a particular actress, her acting or her dancing - it is a crime.

kids and those adults who have still not matured are favoured big time. learn to handle the fact that in this world, not everyone will adore your 'baby' 🤪

I was about to go to bed when I saw this post.

I agree with you Cherie so I'll leave a little lesson for those who don't understand the difference between "bashing" as they put it and constructive criticism!!

I had to dig this out of the archives😆

Constructive criticism for Dummies😳

Use the Feedback Sandwich Method

(Talk about strengths, share areas of improvement) e.g. you are a handsome guy/charming lass, I love your smile, you are humble and very kind but when you speak I don't understand a word you're saying.

Focus on the situation, not the person

(Don't attack the person) e.g. you are a great guy/gal but your acting skills are atrocious.

Be specific with your feedback

(The more specific the better) e.g. your feet are beautiful but they smell

Comment on things which can be actioned upon

(not things which are fixed and cannot be changed) e.g. Without that beard/hairy eyebrows and armpit hair you will look handsome/beautiful.

Give recommendations on how to improve

(don't just critique'., be helpful) e.g. You need a shave. Pink and yellow combinations are for girls not boys. or rainbow colors don't sit well always gals

Don't make assumptions

(Focus on what you see and not what you think you know) e.g. I have seen your dancing skills and you need lessons.

Writing something about a BraSize is considered vulgar?If someone wishes to see her in Blue Industry, its "beyond" bashing?

Lol. Where are these peeps from? Man these conservatives piss the crap outta me. Live in your cave era and let the liberals talk about the DD size or the DD cleavagethey wish to be flaunted.

Sunny Leone, you gotcha kiss DD and put an end to this fangirl selective modesty.😆

PS, what's so wrong about discussing her teeth? LOL. I find them too gross to be discussed anyway. Just a whitening toothpaste as a gift would do it. Okay i await for some abusive messages and pms now. In any case, a similar tone will be used.

These people are far from modest it is okay to discuss about the privates of their fav celebs while drooling and writing p*rn in fan fictions according to these people...

Thanks for this post Sonia. I can report from one corner of this website that has benefited tremendously from the moderators' chhutti - the MB forum. The forum used to be heavily moderated by some super-sensitive mods and anything deemed even remotely critical of the leads used to get shut down instantly.

Now we get some equal opportunity bashing there. Sure it rankles up fans on all sides but that's fine by me - if you disagree with something, make your point in the thread instead of going crying to mommy.

I said this before and as a DD fan I don't agree with what happened to you and think it's beyond unfair that they get away with it. I mean no one has the right to make personal remarks--that's just crossing a line that one shouldn't do. But do rest assure that not all the fans are ike that. I know that in the BW forum there's this crazy Aish fan that sends nasty PMs to people that post disagreeing opinions and it's super immature, but as an Aish fan it's sucks that fans get a bad rep when one section of that fandom is super crazy.

However, I do hope we can converse in a respectful manner whether are opinions agree/disagree. And I do agree with the TM about constructive criticism. Let's hope some of the not so sane fans grow up and behave in a civil manner.
