I certainly hope you've taken up your concern about that post with the mods directly.
There is an enormous difference between people identifying themselves regarding sexual orientation and people discussing their sexual behavior. As far as I know, the latter has never taken place on this forum. I certainly wouldn't welcome it and wouldn't participate in a forum where it was commonplace or, for that matter, allowed.
If you follow this reasoning, then it might make sense why it would be okay to identify yourself as a hunter, but discussing your weapons and their use in detail would not be okay. Or you might identify your religion, but draw the line at discussing the details of your beliefs. The first lets us know who you are, the second asks us to participate to some small degree in what you like and what you believe. I think the intention on this forum is to reserve that level of detail for things directly related to kilts and that does make sense to me.
