I think chatty that the use of capital letters and bold fonts might be misinterpreted by some folks as shouting or over-emphasis. Probably not the style in certain forums. For instance, I would never use it for any forum related to any of my jobs. Never.

I also think that many women do take things abit more personally both on the Internet and face to face, with respect to strong opinions or a critique that doesn't agree/conform to one's own opinion.

I view the different styles of behaviours, both discreet and strong, as what I truly experience with my real sisters in my family.
