As you noted it would be good to return the thread to its original point of departure: celibacy, ashuba practice and such.
But as a final word: the guidelines apply to all, no-one is ‘protected’, if you see something inappropriate flag it. That said, I’d find it a shame if you felt anything in our/my conduct has been uneven and you’re welcome to send a PM to ‘moderators’ if you want to take that further.
