Penguin's post - moderated??

There was a post on here this morning from a boy seeking help from what might be phimosis, did he violate forum rules somehow? Post is now deleted.

Perhaps existing members might refresh their minds about the rules. Thanks

Actually it's over 16. Though I accept that Penguin boy was self declared as 15. Can I ask if he was referred to the MHF website or just zapped?

Thx and understood, I was merely reflecting that forum guidance suggests under 16s go to the main website.

Perhaps it would have been helpful not to have interacted with the boy and just reported the post. That rule is there for legal reasons.

I have now seen that there is a under age category in the Report menu - fair enough, but from a legal point of view references to under 16s (rather than under 18s) in forum rules should be corrected. Also possibly the confusing (it may just be me) references to helping boys (ie as well as men) in the context of the MHF itself should also be cleansed?

  Norwich1 , might it also be possible to confirm if persons without a penis are welcomed in this forum. Posts from concerned mothers have disappeared in the past.

They have often disappeared as they were relating to young children.

Ok. But it’s not the child asking the question, it is an adult. And can you address my question, thanks!

Anyone is allowed to be a forum member as long as they are discussing adult penis health issues

Thanks for the clarification.

That seems a real shame... "The Men's Health Forum is a charity that works to improve the health of men and boys." Would seem reasonable to allow grown ups (partic mums) to ask about boys. There is no HU rule against discussing children's health. Norwich1 could you discuss this with your colleagues please?

This has been discussed before. All discussions about children and their penises is banned for legal reasons. How do you know a Mom is a Mom?
